PODCAST: Time Management on the LSAT
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.
Here are a few snippets of Noah-wisdom from the show, which can be listened to in its entirety on LawSchoolPodcaster.com:
“There’s a strict 35-minute time limit in there, not so much to test how fast you think. It’s to test whether you know how to prioritize what to do.” Throughout the podcast, Noah provides tips on how to save time by identifying the difficultly level of each question and prioritizing your time accordingly. “Unless you are really in the ballpark for a 180…you are not going to get every question right.”
If you’re preparing for Monday, or even a future LSAT, give a listen to Beat the LSAT Clock: Time Management Techniques to Put You on Pace for a Higher Score. You may pick up some tips that can save you those precious seconds and even minutes on test day.
