If you want to prepare effectively for the LSAT, Varsity Tutors can set you up with services that help you make the most of your study time. Because law schools such as the University of San Francisco School of Law or the University of California Davis School of Law may look at your scores during the application process, your preparation can make a difference for your future. The resources you work with and the instruction you receive during your sessions can fit your particular study needs.
The LSAT stands for the Law School Admissions Test. The exam takes two hours and 55 minutes to complete. Only the LSAT is accepted at all ABA-accredited law schools. You will answer the multiple-choice questions on the exam on a tablet that is provided on the day of the exam. The LSAT Writing section will take place online, and you have one year to complete the Writing Section.
What am I able to review during San Francisco LSAT prep?
The three multiple-choice sections of the LSAT are Reading Comprehension, Analytical Reasoning, and Logical Reasoning. Before we explore your preparation options, let's take a moment to look through the contents of each section.
The Reading Comprehension section of the LSAT requires you to deal with complex, long-form written material. This sort of understanding is key to success in a law school environment. You will encounter questions that ask you to identify the main idea of a piece, infer the author's attitude towards a topic, evaluate the organization of a piece, and more. You will have 35 minutes to complete this section of the LSAT.
During the Analytical Reasoning section, you must display your ability to understand relationships and their structure. You will reason with conditional statements, make effective inferences, and solve problems based on the structure of relationships. You will have 35 minutes to complete this section as well.
The Logical Reasoning section contains two parts, and you will have 70 minutes to complete the entire section. You will encounter questions that deal with a variety of sources such as magazines, informal discourse, scholarly publications, and more. As you work with the information from any of these sources, you must be able to analyze the information to make or understand arguments. You will reason by analogy, recognize the component parts of an argument and the relationship between these parts, and identify flaws in a particular argument.
The Writing section of the LSAT is not scored and you can undergo the 35-minute test from a secure online portal at any time during the year following your test date. This section is unscored because law schools will evaluate your writing themselves during the application process. They will examine your reasoning, clarity, structure, and the overall quality of your writing. Your ability to make an effective argument is the key skill this section examines.
How can San Francisco LSAT prep help me to review?
During your LSAT preparation, you can choose between a couple of different paths. If you wish to work in a group environment, you can register for a San Francisco LSAT prep course. These courses take place in a virtual classroom with other students and a skilled instructor. Working with a San Francisco LSAT tutor gives you a chance to experience a one-on-one learning environment that is focused on your particular needs. Either option can help you make the most of your preparation time.
The collaboration and interaction you experience during a San Francisco LSAT prep class allow you to engage with the material in a number of ways. In addition to the live lectures you and your classmates attend, you are able to ask your instructor questions, and discuss key topics as a whole class. This sort of real-time interaction allows you and your classmates to hear about the class materials from many different perspectives. This helps you to challenge each other and see the material from different perspectives. Your instructor can spend extra time addressing topics that are difficult for the class. They can demonstrate these concepts or lead conversations about them. You can also schedule a time to meet with your instructor outside of class. In addition to the content knowledge that these classes can address, you and your classmates can spend time preparing test-taking strategies that help you to move through the exam more quickly and effectively.
There are new sessions of San Francisco LSAT prep classes that begin every week. There are sessions available at a variety of times to accommodate a variety of schedules. Also, you can choose between two and four-week classes depending on your particular needs.
In sessions with a San Francisco LSAT tutor, you and your mentor can devise a study plan that suits your particular needs. There is no assigned syllabus for these sessions, so you are able to focus on the material that is most important to you. You can also work with materials that are presented in ways that help you absorb the material well. Whether you learn best by reading, listening, practice, or watching, you and your mentor can design sessions that help you make the most of your preparation time. You can practice test-taking strategies, watch demonstrations, or read books and articles relevant to the exam topics. Our Live Learning Platform is a space where you and your instructor can interact in real-time. This live instruction and the feedback your mentor gives you can help you to improve your skills as well as your confidence.

However I also understand the process necessary to produce better scores, and nothing is more satisfying to me than helping someone achieve what seemed impossible a few months ago.... Your score is a product of so many factors--your understanding of the material, your speed, even how accurately you bubble answers--but in the end it all comes down to whether you studied the test from every angle and put in the time necessary to get the results you want.
