Over the next couple of months, I'll be hosting weekly sessions to focus on the LSAT's bag of tricks. These tricks are mostly nonlogical elements of the LSAT that often abstract the question in ways such that we frequently understand the logic and yet miss the question anyway. It's a big bag, but its contents are finite. Once you learn to recognize the tricks and what to do when you see them, you will improve your accuracy, improve your time, and improve your score.

This week: Abstract Concepts

Future tricks will include:

Referential Phrasing

The Switcheroo

Nonsense ACs

Supersets/Sets/Subsets

Comparative Language

SA Questions with no Gaps

Exploiting obvious pre-phrases

In order to preserve fresh tests, I will try to restrict the content to earlier tests as much as possible.

    This is not an official post - just fyi from my experience...

    The Sages need to be focused on their applications for the 2018 cycle and then hopefully taking a break from the LSAT grind and enjoying the holiday season.:)

    Look for the workshops to return after the 1st of the year when the Sages continue to share their time and awesome knowledge giving back to all of us taking the LSAT for the 2019 cycle:)

    Hi there! This seems very very helpful! Just wondering, some of us are working overseas (and prepping for the LSAT). Is there a way to conduct a session earlier in the day? or would you be able to post the video online?

    Thanks in advance if this is possible!

    This is pure gold; Thanks Josh for doing this for us. I've just watched your webinar on Post Curriculum and I'm ready to learn these tricks and call the LSAT writers on them when taking PTs and one day, the real LSAT.

    I saw some previous comments asking, but wasn't sure if a clear answer was given or not - Is there a way to record / push back the lesson for us West Coast folks who might still be at work? Thank you in advance, either way! :)

    If it involves LSAT questions, there's a 90% chance it will not be recorded.

    I don’t think these sessions are recorded. @jhaldy10325 is using LSAT questions and licensing fees would cost a lot.....

    Bummer :( I wonder if there's any way they can say ahead of time whether or not the call will be recorded.
