Houston LSAT Tutoring FAQ
If you're gearing up to take the LSAT, Varsity Tutors can connect you with the best Houston LSAT tutors who have the knowledge required to help you get ready for the exam. The LSAT, or Law School Admission Test, is a long and grueling exam, and it can have a definite impact on your ability to get into the law school of your choice. Whether you're applying to the University of Houston Law Center, the South Texas College of Law at Houston, or any other law school, it's likely you'll need to take the LSAT, and we can find a private mentor who can help you structure your studies.
How does Houston LSAT tutoring differ from classroom prep?
There are some distinct advantages to working one-on-one with Houston LSAT tutors. Classroom instruction, by its very nature, necessitates certain compromises. When teachers are addressing a class full of students, they have to use universal teaching methods that don't always take the natural predilections of each student into account. They have to cover the full gamut of LSAT material, which, considering the breadth of topics covered on the LSAT, often means that students spend time reviewing concepts that they're already familiar with. They also have to keep to a class schedule, so if you're having a hard time with a particularly complex subject, you may be forced to move on to other material before you're comfortable doing so.
Houston LSAT tutoring can circumvent these issues. When you work directly with your instructor, they can craft a prep curriculum that's centered on your needs and struggles as an individual learner. Tutors can talk to you about which topics you're most concerned about, assess your strengths and weaknesses, and come up with a customized study plan that focuses on the LSAT skills that you need to polish with the most urgency. You can work at your own pace, allowing you to take as much time as you need to review tough topics.
Houston LSAT tutors can cater to your unique learning style, too. Learning any skill is a complex process, and everyone learns in their own way. You could prefer visual instruction, in which case your instructor could put together flashcards to help you memorize terminology, design flowcharts to assist you in understanding the logical structures that underlie effective arguments, and so on. If you're more of an auditory learner, on the other hand, they could engage you in discussion-based learning that creates a dialogue between you and your instructor. Participating in a debate with your mentor can be a good way to come to grips with the finer points of logical and analytical reasoning, and can identify gaps in your knowledge. No matter what teaching methods you find most effective, Houston LSAT tutoring can play to your strengths.
What kinds of skills can I develop when I work with Houston LSAT tutors near me?
The LSAT is broken up into five sections: Reading Comprehension, Analytical Reasoning, Logical Reasoning, a Writing Sample, and an Unscored Random section that will deliver experimental questions for possible use on future versions of the LSAT. You won't know which section is unscored, so it's good to be prepared for all possible questions. You also won't have to complete the Writing Sample right away - you'll have up to a year to do so, although your scores won't be considered valid until you submit your essay.
The Reading Comprehension section lasts 35 minutes and will present you with a series of passages that you'll have to read carefully. You'll then have to answer a variety of questions about these passages. Reading Comprehension questions are intended to assess your ability to absorb and manipulate written knowledge in a variety of ways. For example, you'll have to apply information from a passage to a new context, identity what underlying principles are at work in the selected text, comment on the voice of the author, and much more. Houston LSAT tutors can present you with passages similar to those you'll see on the exam and go over them with you, teaching you what kind of information you should be reading for, how to use active reading techniques to quickly spot important pieces of the text, and so on.
You'll have 35 minutes to complete the Analytical Reasoning section, which will ask you to play a series of "logic games." The focus of this section is reasoning with conditional statements and sets of interrelated information. A very simple example would be something like, "If Amy is taller than George, and George is shorter than Margaret, is Margaret shorter than Amy?" Essentially, you'll be asked to infer what can or must be true given sets of facts or rules. You can also be asked to transpose these rules to new contexts or to incorporate new information. The abstract nature of Analytical Reasoning can make it easy to get tripped up by confusing questions. This can cause you to lose precious test time as a result. Houston LSAT tutors can drill you with these sorts of conditional questions until you become adept at rapidly organizing relationships. If you find visual relationships easier to understand, they can also help you practice diagramming analytical problems.
Logical Reasoning is split into two parts, and you'll have a total of 70 minutes to complete the section. Logical Reasoning asks you to break down arguments into their component parts and evaluate their efficacy. You'll be asked to show your ability to root out the assumptions present in arguments, describe how new evidence could affect the truth-value of an argument, use analogies, identify patterns in arguments, and so on. Looking over LSAT-style arguments with an experienced instructor can be an excellent way to review how to dissect the minutiae of written arguments. Houston LSAT tutors can show you how to identify keywords that can affect the meanings of phrases or entire arguments, so you can learn to draw new conclusions from existing information. It's also important to learn how to judge trick questions - tutors can help you learn to identify answers that, while they may be true statements, don't necessarily correspond directly to the argument being evaluated.
