Preparing for the LSAT

The LSAT is a standardized, multiple-choice exam given four times a year whose purpose is to compare the preparation and ability of applicants from different backgrounds who are applying to law school. The LSAT tests verbal, analytical, and writing abilities by using the following types of questions: logical reasoning, analytical reasoning, reading comprehension, and essay. This course offers comprehensive and thorough preparation for the LSAT and includes a paper and pencil exam given by a proctor, practice tests, instruction, and post-test. You will learn proven methods for dealing with each question type and gain confidence in your test-taking abilities by applying strategies in test-simulation exercises. Course materials include text, official book of "retired" tests and explanations, and a CD-ROM (PC) that simulates test environment and scoring. Tuition includes cost of materials.
