I believe in bringing out what is most fascinating in the AP English and AP History programs: the stories and passions that can bring the subject material to life.

I believe that preparation should focus on creating strategies and...

LSAT Analytical Reasoning Tutoring FAQ
If you find yourself struggling with the LSAT Analytical Reasoning section, and are not sure how to study for the games and reasoning skills tested, you are not alone. Developing the abilities tested on the Analytical Reasoning section can be a difficult and counterintuitive process, particularly since logic games are rarely integrated into undergraduate coursework. Furthermore, it can be nearly impossible to accurately and efficiently identify the steps in your own reasoning that have led you astray in a given problem. Self diagnosing weak areas can prove a futile task. Studying for the LSAT Analytical Reasoning section on your own can be very frustrating and stressful. If you are looking to get some expert help on this section of the exam, LSAT Analytical Reasoning tutoring may be able to help, and Varsity Tutors can connect you with the perfectly matched tutor for your needs.
Whether you are confused by the game rules or not sure about the timing for this section, an LSAT tutor has the resources and experience you need to succeed. Instructors work individually with students to create tailored study plans focused on their particular areas of difficulty. An able tutor could help you solve the games within the time limits, reorganize your thoughts to recognize patterns more quickly, and/ or learn tips and tricks to be more successful. Private tutoring also prioritizes your busy life as you prepare for law school and offers streamlined, efficient tutoring to help you study more effectively in a time and place of your choosing.
The LSAT Analytical Reasoning section tests whether you can understand relationships and draw logical conclusions about the structure within a rigid set of laws. It also assesses your ability to make these conclusions under pressure and with a time limit. This is an extremely useful skill in surviving the field of law at any level. These games and the Logical Reasoning problems are often the most dangerous pitfalls for strong students, who may enter the exam without studying the specifics of these sections.
Proper preparation for the LSAT Analytical Reasoning section can help you develop the deductive and logic-based skills that you will need for the LSAT Logical Reasoning section as well, not to mention the applicability of these skills in a practical law school environment. LSAT Analytical Reasoning tutoring can focus on your needs and goals in a one-on-one setting, allowing you to move at your own pace to succeed.
Augment your learning to be able to solve the Analytical Reasoning games as quickly and successfully as possible, so that you can move on to other sections with confidence. Preparing to apply to law school is a huge undertaking and an arduous process. These instructors have been in your shoes before, and are ready to lead you to success on the LSAT Analytical Reasoning section.
As the LSAT Analytical Reasoning section is so unique, it can be difficult to know the most effective way to study. There isn't really one best way to study. It really comes down to how you obtain and retain information. While trying to figure this out on your own can be all but impossible, a private tutor can help you identify study methods that will be most effective based on your specific learning style, strengths, and weaknesses.
Varsity Tutors can also offer flexibility and convenience. Our live learning platform enables you to meet with a private tutor either in person or face-to-face online. This allows you to meet your tutor at a time and location that works best for you.

The student and I met and went over some more Analytical Reasoning questions. He had taken another practice test and scored extremely high on the reading and logical sections so we spent the time working on the game sections again. I feel that he is close to a breakthrough as his accuracy continues to improve and his speed is increasing. He should be ready for the test in a few weeks. We plan to meet one more time this week and then do a complete test together next weekend and come up with his strategy for the test.
We went over 2 analytical reasoning sections the student had completed on her own time. I went into depth on how to approach resolve the paradox questions and how to approach questions that utilize some and most.
This was the first session with the student and we focused on logic games for the entire session. We did one problem from her test prep book and then transitioned to doing problems that I brought into the session. She verbalized her thought process as she dissected each of the problems. She has strong skills already. Her feedback was positive, as she said the session helped clarify some of the areas that had bedeviled her up to now.
Worked through three logic games using a white board to help fine tune the student's game setups and to help "see" the logic behind the question. Made plans for her to take a practice test next Saturday on her own, then to bring it with her to next Sunday's session and work through the wrong answers.
The student and I started by doing practice drills. The focus of the drill was to work on the setups for linear logic games. This served as a good way for me to gauge where she was in her progression and how comfortable she was in doing logic games. In the second hour, I had her take a timed logic games section. The purpose was to simulate real test conditions and to use the setup skills that we practiced in the first hour. After grading the section and reviewing troublesome problems, I can see that there is room for improvement in how she paces herself under timed conditions.
Reviewed use of contrapositive in two-group games when all elements are in exactly one group. Reviewed games section strategy, emphasizing delay of time-consuming or difficult questions until end of session.
