5-Month LSAT Study Schedule / Plan

All my courses come with all day-by-day study plans.

***

This 5-month schedule is intense. Follow it only if you’re studying for the LSAT full-time, or if you’re able to study for several hours each weekend. You might have work/school/life obligations that make this impossible. If that’s the case, skip some of the “re-do” and “review” weeks, and complete the rest at a more relaxed pace.

Month 1:

Review my relevant articles on Logic Games and complete Logic Games from PrepTests 52-61 ordered by difficulty during the first 4 weeks.

Week 1: Complete Pure Sequencing, Basic Linear, and Advanced Linear games. Review each game that gives you trouble.

Week 2: Complete Grouping: In-Out / Selection, Grouping: Splitting, and Grouping: Matching games. Review each game that gives you trouble.

Week 3: Complete Combination games in PrepTests 52-61 (untimed).

Week 4: Complete several timed sections of Logic Games from older exams, and read A Rulebook For Arguments.

Month 2:

Week 5: Review my articles on Logical Reasoning before completing LSAT questions of each type in PrepTests 52-61 using the LSAT Logical Reasoning categorization (untimed). Complete a few timed sections of Logic Games.

Week 6: Continue Logical Reasoning work from Week 4 with additional question-types and complete a few timed sections of Logic Games.

Week 7: Continue Logical Reasoning work from Week 4 with additional question-types and complete a few timed sections of Logic Games and Logical Reasoning.

Week 8: Continue Logical Reasoning work from Week 4 with additional question-types and complete a few timed sections of Logic Games and Logical Reasoning.

Month 3:

Week 9: Read my articles on Reading Comprehension and complete several sections of Reading Comp from PrepTests 52-61 (untimed). Complete a few timed sections of Logic Games, Logical Reasoning, and Reading Comprehension.

Week 10: Catch-up and review week. Re-do the Linear / Sequencing games from PrepTests 52-61. Try to solve them more quickly and make new inferences. Complete timed sections of all types.

Week 11: Catch-up and review week. Re-do the Grouping and Combination games from PrepTests 52-61. Try to solve them more quickly and make new inferences. Complete timed sections of all types.

Week 12: Catch-up and review week. Re-do the Logical Reasoning questions from PrepTests 52-61 that gave you trouble. Complete timed sections of all types.

Month 4:

Week 13: Complete the 3 tests in LSAC’s SuperPrep (timed) and review the explanations. Although the explanations are really technical, it’s good to learn how the test-makers think. Identify weak areas.

Week 14: Re-read my articles on Logic Games and Logical Reasoning about question-types still giving you trouble. Complete a recent LSAT PrepTest under timed conditions. Review.

Week 15: Use my Logic Games and/or Logical Reasoning categorization to do question-types in older exams that still give you difficulty. Review. Complete another LSAT PrepTest under timed conditions. Review.

Week 16: Complete 3 recent LSAT PrepTests under timed conditions as 4-section exams. Review each exam on alternating days.

Month 5:

Week 17: Complete 3 recent LSAT PrepTests (timed). Splice in sections from another to simulate experimental sections. Review each exam on alternating days.

For the remaining weeks, use free Logic Games Explanations (on my website and inside the course) after completing the relevant exam.

Week 18: Complete 3 recent LSAT PrepTests (timed). Splice in sections from another to simulate experimental sections. Review each exam on alternating days.

Week 19: Complete 3 recent LSAT PrepTests (timed). Splice in sections from another to simulate experimental sections. Consider using one section to create a 6-section exam for extra practice. Review each exam on alternating days.

Week 20: Complete 3 recent LSAT PrepTests (timed). Splice in sections from another to simulate experimental sections. (Again, consider using one section to create a 6-section exam). More thoughts on how to simulate the experimental section in this article. Review each exam on alternating days.

Finally, rock the LSAT on Test Day.
