Time management on the LSAT is an element of the exam that is as difficult to overcome as it is important to your score: very!

One of the toughest and most common struggles that LSAT test takers face is how much time to devote to each question and what to do when the

second and minute hands on the clock are interfering with your ability to focus on the actual exam. Maybe you’re having trouble with which questions to attack first, which questions to skip, or when it’s time to take your best guess.

To help students conquer the challenges of pacing and time management on the LSAT, Law School Podcaster has released a new show that shares proven time management techniques and strategies just in time for June 2012 LSAT.

The show grants insight from four experts in the LSAT sphere, including one of our own resident LSAT gurus: Noah Teitelbaum, Director of Academics and co-creator of our curriculum.

With only 4.5 days to go before the June 2012 LSAT you should be at the point in your preparations where you have made peace with your capabilities and are ready to sit down and take the exam with confidence come Monday. If you’re still struggling, you’d ought not to fool yourself in to thinking that a miracle is going to occur. Truth is, many students roughly 3  points lower on the real test than they do on their timed PrepTests leading up to the exam.

These decreases on the real exam are generally due to nerves or random test day variables such as a really annoying neighbor, a less than ideal test center, or a proctor from hell. Unless you have been consistently scoring 2-3 points higher than your goal on your most recent timed Prep Tests, I would strongly suggest postponing your exam until October and spending the next three and a half months sharpening your skills.

The second game on PrepTest 35 is an open assignment game about new cars. Each new car is equipped with one or more of the following: power windows, leather interiors, and/or a sunroof.

(Remember, each of these cars could have anywhere from one to three features.)

A student recently asked, “Could it have more than one sunroof?” I told her no, that she should assume no duplicates. To illustrate, I said, “Think of how absurd it would be to have a car with multiple leather interiors.” She raised her eyebrows. “I’ve seen it.” (I convinced her with the power windows feature.)

Two-tone leather interiors aside, it struck me that this may be a point worth making clear for you guys: the LSAT is not two-toned. Read more
