i have taken the lsat june test, which is supposed to be the most difficult one in a test year since most attendents are the best students. However apparently I am not one of them. I have canceled my score and prepare for Sep test.
I guess after months preparation and first hand experience, I have some ability to tell you the truth.
Limited by the time, I will not be able to write too much at this moment.
About RC, i have to say the trend is more reading, long questions, and always 28 questions, you will have to be able to fast read. according to the curved score right now and in the future, if you can only finish three passage comfortably, you'd better take a little more time to prepare, otherwise it is hard for you to get above even 160, basically you can not give up for even one passage. You'd better train yourself to finish all four passages and questions in 30 minutes since after the proctor declare the five minutes left, you are in panic. About where to enhance your reading, go to check www.powerscore.com, they have some suggestions, more professional, as to about advice, check some foreign forum, like type "top law school forum" in google
About AR (Game), the trend is about 22 questions and it get easier and a little tricker. Do not spend too much time.
As to LR, it will have 51 questions in two section, and the difficulty may not even, one section is significant harder than the other one. And a lot readingm it seems that there are no more two questions based on one short passage, so you will have to deal with altogether 51 passages. Again, if you really enhance your reading, it will definitely help you in LR. Althoug logic is important, reading is even more emphasized laterly and I have to say native english speaking benefit more. I strongly suggest you guys go for the latest questions, the ones you guys discussed aere kind of outdated. Do a careful search you will be able to find all. I have accumulated all questions in my hand and purchase a bounch from LSAC directly. Do not spend too much time on older questions since there are way too many news one for your to do and the lastest trend is more and more subtle and tricky. You have to train yourself think as the way the exam maker and identify those small cues.
I will just give your guys such general tips right now
I have to say preparing LSAT is tough, but you gain sth out of it as well, i try to develop my own study and prepare method, and they evolve as well.
Try hard and make a realistic goal.
After exam i may share you some of my tips on preparation. Good luck!
hey, I am preparing the Sep test too. What you said are right.I already did all the tests b4 2002, however, starting at the end of 2000. LR is getting different and harder. It demand a lot more on reading which you can not build up in short amount of time.This definitly benefit native speaker a lot. Man, never thought it is this hard.
Can you pass you MSN over, maybe we can share some exp.
