The webinar outlines the key LSAT skills—argument structure, reading comprehension, deductive logic, and formal logic—then explains why LSAT performance correlates with early law school grades. It recommends suitable study materials and discusses tutoring and supplementary approaches, emphasizing gradual improvement and consistent daily study habits, plus how to review practice tests.","Preparing for the LSAT  \nWebinar Overview  \n• What is on the LSAT? What is it testing?  \n• Materials you will want to have to prepare  \n• Tutoring and other supplementary preparation  \n• Why improving on the LSAT is more challenging than improving on other tests  \n• How to form a long term strategy and study plan  \n• Small, everyday habits to improve LSAT performances  \n• Preptests, PrepTest conditions, and How to Review  \n• Basic tips to improve in LR, LG, and RC  \n• We’ll stop for question breaks every half hour.  \n• I’ll stick around a little after the webinar is over to go over more participant questions.  \n• Thanks for being here!  \nWhat is on the LSAT? What is it testing?  \n• The LSAT is a skills test with a small amount of content.  \n• On the SAT, you may remember the Verbal section tested vocabulary and reading comprehension:  \n• Reading Comprehension tests skills with a little bit of content  \n• Vocabulary tests content with a little bit of skill  \n• The LSAT tests only a few skills, and it tests them frequently:  \n• Arguments: Argument structure. How arguments work  \n• Reading Comprehension: Process written information answer questions.  \n• Deductive logic: Organizing variables in a scheme and drawing conclusions about it  \n• Formal logic: Translating English statements into logic in order to find inferences or missing assumptions.  \nWhy Is This Important for Law School?  \n• It’s not clear – high performance on the LSAT and first year grades are correlated.  \n• …..But, it’s probably true high performance on the GRE, or even the ACT, and first year grades would be correlated.  \n• The LSAT forces test-takers to read and respond in high pressure situations. This is probably similar to the everyday reality of some lawyers, and it is true that both in law school and the legal profession you will do a lot of reading.  \n• Why the LSAT? We don’t know. Until we can take the GRE instead, we’ll do the best we can…  \nWhat Materials Should You Use To Prepare?  \n• Recommended in order from left to right (Newest to older, there should be a new 10 volume test coming out any day now) .  \n• Probably want one of these for every 4 weeks you’re studying (round up) .  \n• Other materials? Sure, but we’re not going to recommend any specifically.  \nThe Newest Tests  \n• 81 was June 2017, so the 72-81 book should be out soon. Get it when it comes out!  \n• If it’s not out soon, these are going to the last tests you should take in the weeks leading up to test day  \n• They cost around $8-$10 each.  \nTutoring and Other Supplementary Materials  \n• “Never train alone: it reinforces your mistakes”  \n• Think about baseball/softball. You can go to batting cages and practice your accuracy and power, but it’shard to see what you are doing while you are doing it.  \nTutoring and Other Supplementary Materials  \n• Two solutions: You can record yourself and review your stance, posture, swing, etc., or you can get someone to watch you bat and do the same analysis in real time.  \n• Recording yourself is similar to reviewing your practice tests (we’ll cover that later)  \n• Getting a coach is similar to getting a tutor!  \n• Tutors can help share strategies and insights about the material and your test-taking that you wouldn’t have realized without their insights.  \nWhy Improving on the LSAT Is Not Easy  \n• Because the LSAT is a skills-based test, Test Day is more analogous to a sporting event or a skilled performance.  \n• You can’t “cram” for your recital or for a big game. Imagine doing your routine 30 times the night before your performance – you’d get tired, you’d reinforce bad mistakes.  \nWhy Improving on the LSAT Is Not Easy  \n• Preparation is gradual – time spent studying should be evenly distributed.  \n• The LSAT tests relatively few skills – improvement is incremental. There is rarely a “eureka” moment, studying for the LSAT can feel like a grind.  \n• Okay, so now that that’s out of the way, let’s talk a bit about how to actually study…","cbCaisRanD6CxuQa","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisRanD6CxuQa","pdf",1999036,1,35,"English","en",105,"# Webinar Overview\n## What is on the LSAT?
