Last Minute Logic Games to Test Your Limits
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.
For those of you who are locked in and making final preparations for Monday, you should try your hand at the Manhattan LSAT Logic Games Challenge. The “hard” versions of our games are WAY harder than what you’ll see on the LSAT, so if you can master these, know that your skill level is high. If you can’t conquer them, don’t despair too much: these were written by our 99th percentile Geek Squad to be extremely difficult.
We just posted a new challenge, The Trainee Game. Prizes are given to a winner drawn from the pool of people who answered with 100% accuracy the hard version of the game, as well as a prize for the individual who posts the best answer explanation on our forums.
Remember, these are games written by are instructors and are likely to be more difficult then what you’ll see on test day. Doing these Logic Game Challenges is the LSAT equivalent of the epic training session in Rocky IV.
