Varsity Tutors can help you get more out of your LSAT study sessions with an in-depth Houston LSAT prep course. Signing up for a course provides a unique way to learn about the material you need to know for your upcoming exam. You may have decided to take the LSAT if you're interested in attending a local law school like the South Texas College of Law - Houston or the University of Houston Law Center. Doing well on this test could make it easier to get accepted into the law schools you'd like to attend the most. A great score could even earn you scholarship offers.
However, it can be difficult to study for the LSAT without any guidance. The test is comprehensive and covers a lot of challenging material. Working with an expert LSAT instructor is a great way to enhance the quality of your test preparation process. Consider contacting us today if you're interested in doing this. You can also continue reading for more information on the exam and what Varsity Tutors can do to help you get ready for it.
What's tested on the LSAT?
The LSAT is a standardized test that was designed to help law schools assess which of their applicants would be most successful if admitted. With that goal in mind, the exam is split into four sections, which each test for a different skill that is necessary for success in law school and when working as a lawyer. The LSAT's sections focus on Reading Comprehension, Logical Reasoning, Analytical Reasoning, and Writing.
The Reading Comprehension section tasks test-takers with reading through a series of dense, complex written passages. Then, you'll need to answer a series of questions based on the information that you've just read. You may be asked questions about the passage's main purpose, the meaning of words in context, the impact that new claims would have on the passage, and more. You'll be allotted a maximum of 35 minutes to complete the Reading Comprehension section.
Next, you may take the Analytical Reasoning section. This part of the LSAT is also often called "Logic Games" due to the game-like nature of the questions that are asked here. You'll be given a set of rules that govern something like the ordering of a group of objects. In this scenario, your task would be to find the correct order of the objects using your logical reasoning skills. You'll need to use the rules that you're given to infer new rules that will allow you to finish the puzzle. This section also has a 35-minute time limit.
The next section of the LSAT is called Logical Reasoning. There are two different Logical Reasoning sections on the LSAT and each has a time limit of 35 minutes. Here, you'll read short statements from different sources like advertisements and magazines. Then, you'll be asked to answer a question based on the information that you just read. This may include doing things like identifying assumptions, drawing well-supported conclusions, identifying guiding principles, and more.
Finally, the last section of the LSAT focuses on Writing. This section is a bit different than the others since there are no multiple-choice questions on it. Instead, you'll be shown a prompt that describes two different positions or courses of action. Your task will be to choose one of the options you're shown and then to write an essay response that supports your choice. There are no right or wrong answers on this part of the exam. Instead, this is simply a chance to show your ability to argue in the written form. This part of the exam is unscored but doing well on it is a great way to show the law schools you apply to your skill set as a writer.
How can Varsity Tutors help you study for the LSAT?
The section above details how many different skills you'll need to feel confident while taking the LSAT. Varsity Tutors can help you develop these academic abilities by getting you started with a Houston LSAT course. Your Houston LSAT class will replicate the traditional classroom learning experience in a more convenient online setting. You'll learn from an experienced instructor who will teach you through a series of live lectures. Each Houston LSAT course also features a small group of peers who you'll be able to learn with. You can interact with your peers throughout your course sessions, which studies have shown can help students get even more out of their academic pursuits.
Students who have a hard time fully understanding one of the topics from their course can sign up to work with their educator in a one-on-one setting. This provides the opportunity to get extra help with the LSAT's most challenging material. For example, if you're having a hard time completing a certain type of Logical Reasoning question, then you can sign up to get additional guidance on those problems with your course instructor. Since you'll be working individually with your educator, you can get targeted guidance and advice that is meant to help you grow.
Additionally, taking a Houston LSAT class is possible even if you already have a busy schedule. That's because new courses start weekly and there are a variety of two and four-week course plans that you can choose from. With a wide variety of options to choose from, you can easily find one that meets at times that fit within your existing schedule. If you're concerned about fitting a course into your schedule, then consider reaching out to us for help finding the right option for your needs.
How can you get started?
The LSAT is an important exam that could play a significant role in your law school admissions cycle. If you think that you would benefit from working with an expert during your test preparation process, then consider contacting Varsity Tutors today. We can help you find the right Houston LSAT course for your specific academic needs and can then get you started with it quickly. We'd love to help you pursue your LSAT goals and hope to hear from you soon.
