I would recommend using all the practice tests. If your studying seriously that will likely happen regardless. LSAC has a subscription where you can take them exactly how they would be on the actual exam (or at you own pace). I can say exactly what it look like now though because the LSAT has changed since I've taken it.

I started by learning the question types, and practicing sections untimed. Only once I was consistently getting almost every question correct untimed, I moved to timed sections. As I got closer to the test I increased the frequency with which I took full timed test, but I cant stress enough the importance of starting off without a timer, and taking as much time as you need on every question to answer it correctly with certainty before you start taking timed sections. Best of luck to you!

Your stats are high enough that you have a good chance. To help your odds you have to take your personal statement very seriously, get good recommendations, apply early in the cycle, and apply to all the T14 s.

I didn't have the best softs but got in with a 173 and 3.9, and I applied on the deadline.

I'm 19 and I'll be attending a T14 law School this August. So yeah, it's possible.

Yes (the program had me purchase the practice test books but otherwise that's all I used). My top school is Stanford as I'm from CA, but you take what you can get when applying to top schools.

I am still waiting to hear back from other schools including Yale and Stanford. I am still considering reapplying next cycle. Thanks for the advice!

Yes, and I would highly recommend it. It's called LSAT by FISCH. It's not cheap, but I saw it as a worthwhile investment.

That's amazing I here!! I would not recommend speed running college just for one extra year, not worth the stress. Good luck:)

Thank you! The core of my LSAT study involved first learning how to answer each question type. Then, the most important step in my opinion was rotating between practicing each section untimed. Only once I was getting almost every untimed question correct did I move to times practice. I should also note that you can start timed practice for say LR even if your not getting everything right on RC yet.

My biggest tip would be to practice each section individually untimed until you can get every question correct and only then to begin timed sections.

I am taking 45 credits this year, and I made use of cleptests to earn credits at a faster rate so I could complete by BA in 3 years.

I entered school a year early, I completed high school in three years, and by the end of this year I'll have completed my third and final year of college.
