ABOUT THE LSAT
The LSAT is composed of five 35-minute multiple-choice sections and one 30-minute writing section. The multiplechoice sections are broken down as follows: one Reading Comprehension, one Analytical Reasoning, two Logical Reasoning, and one Experimental. (The Experimental questions will be like those of one of the previously mentioned sections.)

Logical Reasoning
The Logical Reasoning section of the LSAT tests your ability to deconstruct an argument. The focus of these sessions of the Prep Course will be on how to analyze a Logical Reasoning question and identify assumptions and/or fallacies in
each argument presented. At the end of the sessions you should be well-equipped to analyze and answer Logical Reasoning questions.

Analytical Reasoning (Logic Games)
This section of the LSAT measures your ability to understand a system of relationships and reach conclusions about those relationships. These sessions of the Prep Course will provide the study skills you need to attack the Analytical
Reasoning section. You will learn how to recognize the three types of Logic Games and work through them efficiently.

Reading Comprehension
The Reading Comprehension questions on the LSAT are designed to test your ability to understand complex passages and make connections between the different parts of those passages. The questions are aimed at testing your ability to
“read between the lines,” as you will be required to do in reading legal cases. This session of the Prep Course will focus on teaching the skills necessary to read critically and accurately under time pressure.
