Coronavirus LSAT Prep: Studying During Quarantine


Take advantage of this time when everything is shut down and you can't really go anywhere.  This is your opportunity to buckle down and focus on mastering this exam. If you've got nothing but time, get the PrepTests available on LSAC's site in the Digital LSAT format. You can practice exactly like it's game day from home.

Everything you need is online so all the excuses are gone. If there's nothing else keeping you busy, or you have more free time than usual, sit down and focus. Block off the time in your schedule day by day, week by week, for the next two and a half months till June. Have it all plotted out so there's no ambiguity about what to be doing every single day.

My LSAT study plans will help you do it. They lay out exactly what to do every single day over the course of your prep. I talk about moving from building the foundation to the preparing for Test Day itself. And accuracy comes only after you've got pacing and endurance: pacing is individual timed 35-minute sections while endurance is for those full-length five-section exams so build up slowly, but use my plans to have the road map laid out for you.

If you're scoring low, you haven't built the foundation fully yet. And, in that case, I wouldn't focus on pacing and endurance yet. If you're still in the 130s, there's a lot of groundwork to lay down in terms of gaining basic familiarity with all the different sections and question types.

So slow down, build the foundation (spend at least a month or two on that), and then move into the other phases. June might not be enough time, but ultimately, whether you do June or July or August or October, it doesn't really matter. If you want this bad enough, you'll put in the time that you need to reach your goal.
