Taking a few moments to 'pre-phrase' a potential ideal answer choice between reading the stimulus and the ACs is a powerful LR technique. If you spot a missing bridge between the premises and conclusion before getting mired in the answer choices, there's a good chance you'll be able to pinpoint the correct answer in a fraction of the time it would otherwise have taken! This class provides a primer on what to look for when pre-phrasing, and how to capitalize on a solid pre-phrase.

About the instructor
Instructor
Katie graduated from the University of Pennsylvania and is starting at Penn Carey Law this fall. She has taught standardized tests for six years, including the LSAT for the past two.
Katie believes the best way to improve is to approach the test methodically: develop structured strategies for each question type, recognize common patterns, and find efficient shortcuts along the way. As a visual learner, she both teaches with and recommends visual tools, such as diagramming or drawing pictures, to organize and understand information—methods she used to succeed on her own test.
In her free time, Katie enjoys playing soccer, trying new restaurants, and playing video games.
