“At a minimum, you should review the descriptions of the question types (below) and simulate the day of the test by taking, under actual time constraints, a practice test that includes a writing sample. Taking a practice test under timed conditions helps you to estimate the amount of time you can afford to spend on each question in a section and to determine the question types for which you may need additional practice.”

You’ve spent ages studying, you’ve been in the exam for hours, and finally you’ve reached the very last section before you can escape to freedom. So why not just blow off the essay section entirely? It’s not tabulated into the score, so it doesn’t really matter if you do a great job, right?
Wrong! As a student representative who has read countless files for my law school’s admissions committee over the past two years, let me assure you that this essay can and does matter. Perhaps there are some law schools that don’t weigh the essay much, or may not even read it, but do you want to take that chance? Further, the LSAT essay is always a part of your admissions file.

If you’re reading this, you were most likely disappointed with your recent LSAT score. You may be obsessing about how your score will affect your chances of admission at your dream schools or whether you will be able to attend law school at all.
Take a deep breath and relax. Many lawyers and current law students missed the mark during their first LSAT administration and had to retake. Maybe you didn’t perfect your strategies due to a lack of preparation, maybe you lacked mental stamina because you didn’t complete enough LSAT PrepTests, maybe your performance dropped due to distractions or nerves that you didn’t account for in your practice tests, or maybe you simply had an off day. Whatever the reason was, the tips below will help you diagnose and treat your LSAT woes.
After months of studying for the LSAT, it is common for students to spot LSAT issues everywhere. In fact, seeing life through the lens of the LSAT is a great way to reinforce what you have learned and a helpful way to study on-the-go.

It is a well-known fact that the best way to study for the LSAT is to practice using official LSAC prep tests. It is also well-known that many students experience a decline in their actual LSAT score. For these students, the drop in their score can often be attributed to test day anxiety that they did not account for when they were taking their prep tests.
In their four-page interview with Linda Ashar for 101 Ways to Score Higher on Your LSAT, the founders of SimuGator discuss why many test takers score significantly lower on test day compared to their practice LSAT PrepTests and how SimuGator: LSAT Prep Edition has been solving that problem for thousands of students since 2007.
