I started studying for the LSAT on October 1st. I've just been doing the "Core Curriculum" lessons to get a good basis of understanding. Should I be mixing in practice drill questions even though I'm at the beginning of the lessons? If not, when should I begin to mix in the questions with the Core Curriculum lessons I do every day?

    For me, the curriculum format started making sense as soon as I finished the Foundations and moved into the actual Logical Reasoning lessons. Now I'm able to incorporate drills into my studies and get the answers correct. But while I was still in Foundations, I was constantly bombing drills. It was so demoralizing that I was starting to question my life choices.

    I'd say that if you're like me and not doing well on drills while in the Foundations section, consider holding off on drills until you've completed it. Then incorporate drills once you're in LR.

    Hi Andy,

    I think it all depends on when you are taking your first LSAT and what time you are wanting to put into studying. If you are going to take the LSAT this Fall or Spring, then I would personally start doing some drills to get accustomed to what the LSAT can throw your way. However, if you have a longer horizon, then you have more flexibility to do either way!

    My personal advice would be to start slowly incorporating the drill work into your studying so that as you are learning "new" question types in the curriculum you have already seen some questions with it and know whether they are a naturally hard or easy question type for you.
