LSAT Logical Reasoning Tutoring FAQ
The LSAT Logical Reasoning section is the largest section of the exam. Since it features roughly half of the total number of questions, it makes up the largest percentage of your score as well. If you are looking to enhance your skills in this section, LSAT Logical Reasoning tutoring may help you work toward the score, and law school, of your dreams. Specialized tutoring offers individualized support to augment your studying and help you feel more confident on the Logical Reasoning section. Whether you are most concerned with identifying assumptions and flaws in logical conclusions, or analyzing arguments and understanding how to strengthen or weaken them, your LSAT tutor can help you master every type of question you may face on test day.
Learn to diagram arguments or quickly rule out impossible choices to reach a conclusion correctly and quickly. Your tutor can work to diagnose your particular testing weaknesses and build customized lessons to address these specific areas. A private instructor can help you focus on time management, test day confidence, predicting answer choices, and identifying the patterns in arguments. They have been through this experience themselves, so will provide insightful hints and suggestions as you move along. An LSAT Logical Reasoning tutor will address any questions or concerns you have during the process.
Preparing for the LSAT can be a time of intense anxiety. Your tutor will agree to meet in a place where you are most comfortable, even in your own kitchen or living room, or home office. They can set up a lesson in a convenient location such as a library. The 51Թ live learning platform allows you to meet with a private tutor either in person or face-to-face online. This gives you the flexibility to meet with your tutor at the time and location of your choice. Any LSAT tutor knows about your busy schedule, as they too have been through the same grind. Their flexibility and adaptability mean you don't have to fall behind just because the course moves fast and you have numerous obligations to juggle.
Your tutor provides both the expertise and academic support to individually tailor your LSAT tutoring and help you reach your law school goals. The skill of analyzing and evaluating arguments is deemed the most important by law schools, and thus is weighted more heavily, comprising almost half of your overall Law School Admission Test score. The ability to parse apart an argument and understand its logical (or illogical) steps and flow is essential in law school coursework and practice. Most questions test your ability to identify an assumption while looking at an argument, find the premise that supports the conclusion, identify logical gaps, and otherwise understand the different steps taken in most decision-making processes. Whether you are analyzing the argument for lapses in logic or deciding how a premise affects the validity of an argument, it is important to be able to see the difference in the answer choices as well. The answers are usually written to show only slight variations, which often throw off test takers. LSAT tutoring allows students to hone in on answer discrepancies efficiently and effectively, teaching you strategies for selecting the correct choice.
Working with an experienced instructor can help you identify the usual tricks that the LSAT frequently plays in this section.

Today was almost entirely devoted to a whirlwind review of nearly all of the types of logical reasoning questions, with a small foray into logical games grouping games questions. We had a particular focus on timing, really trying to get the student to finish questions within the proper time frame.
For today, I prepared 8 assumption questions from a former LSAT exam. We went through these in detail, and focused on looking at why particular answer choices were wrong. When the student got the question correct, I had her explain why she chose that one over the other answer choice she narrowed it down to. If she got the question incorrect, I had her explain why she eliminated the correct answer. I would explain the answer choices, and when the student was comfortable with a question we moved on to the next. After those, we moved on to doing the hardest questions of one of the practice exams. We did these in a similar fashion in order to understand not only how to get to the correct answer, but also how to eliminate the incorrect answers. I am going to prepare a similar exercise for our next session, this time initially including more than assumption questions.
Met with the student at the library and went over a bunch of LR problems. The student seems like she really has her act together on the testing. Hopefully a few tips and tricks can help her get another handful of points.
We went over various types of logical reasoning questions, including justify the conclusion and strengthening questions. We also talked about causal reasoning and how that's tested on the assessment test. .
We worked through some logical reasoning problems. The student has a pretty good grasp on the types of problems and did well today, but he has some trouble with assumption problems and method of reasoning problems so we did a few of those today and will continue next week.
We reviewed homework sections on logical flaws, strengthen/weaken. I emphasized making concrete pre-phrase and following through with confidence to find answer matching pre-phrase. We discussed time-management techniques for 50/50 answer choices.
