Time Management on Test Day

Mastering the Clock

The LSAT is a race against time! Smart pacing helps you maximize your score.

Time-Saving Tips

  • Preview Questions: Skim questions before reading the passage to know what to look for.
  • Set Mini-Deadlines: Give yourself a set number of minutes per passage/question set.
  • Move On: Don’t get stuck—if a question is too tough, mark it and circle back.

Why It Matters

Finishing every question boosts your chances of catching easy points and reduces stress.

Examples

  • You decide to spend no more than 8 minutes on each passage.

  • You skip a tricky inference question and return after answering the rest.
