LSAT Logic Games Timing Practice<\/h2>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

Often the Logic Games section can be a manageable section\u00a0of the LSAT to improve on, and improve on quickly. There are very set rules<\/a>, and lots of great strategies\u00a0\u00a0that can help you conquer this section. That being said, nothing is better than practice, so below are some tips for how to tackle practicing the games.<\/p>\n

To start, try taking a couple of practice analytical reasoning sections to see where your baseline is. Are you finishing all of the games in time but not doing very well? Are you finishing only two of the games but getting all of the questions<\/a> right?<\/p>\n

As you begin your LSAT prep, don\u2019t worry too much about working within timing limits. While you\u2019re trying to develop mastery (which will take a while), you may want to spend more than the average amount of time on a problem type. That\u2019s OK for the first couple of weeks. Just be aware that you\u2019ll have to tighten up the timing before too long. To finish all four games in the allotted 35 minutes, you need to do each game in under 8 minutes. Adhering to this timing means you’ll be left with 3 minutes to spend on a harder game, or to review your answers. 8 minutes may seem really fast, but if you can do practice LSAT logic games frequently, that short period of time will be enough for you to complete the game.<\/p>\n

A good first step is to aim for finishing three games in the 35 minutes getting 90-100% of the questions<\/a> correct. That means you can spend 11 minutes per game with 2 extra minutes to review or tackle that harder game. It may seem crazy to leave that forth game untouched for right now, but for many LSAT test-takers it is better to try and work on your accuracy first.<\/p>\n
