I started studying for the LSAT around a month ago, and plan to take the September test. I've finished the Foundations unit and am more than halfway through the LR unit - so, I'm wondering when I should start incorporating drilling and PTs into my studying, and how often? I haven't been doing drills asides from ones built in to the lessons, and haven't done a PT since my diagnostic.

    Good question- and the best approach probably varies from person to person. But in general, considering where you are at in the process and your timeline, a great plan moght be that for the next few weeks start doing question type specific drills to make sure that you are locked on those particular questions.

    The idea is to really cement the process that you are using for each question type. You could start the drills now for any question type that you have already coverd in the LR unit. Even if it's just 2-3 sets of 10-12 questions, if you start seeing consistent accuracy, then you can check it off and move on to the next question type. If the accuracy is still inconsistent, that’s usually a sign that the process for that question type still needs development.

    Once you finish the LR unit, it would seem to make more sense to broaded your drills to be more overall score and timing based. And that's the point that the next PT would make the most sense. But I know the urge to take a PT sometimes can get pretty strong, and sometimes we just gotta scratch the itch! lol

    So, I hope that helps and just drop a comment if you have any follow up questions.
