6-Month LSAT Study Schedule / Plan

6 months is more than enough time if you stick with a regular, but moderate, schedule. I’ve reviewed all books and PrepTests mentioned below.

This 24-week 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 this list of 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.

Week 4: Complete any Logic Games in older exams of the types that give you difficulty, then complete several timed sections of Logic Games. Review.

Month 2:
