LSAT Writing Length Question

How long should the LSAT Writing Essay be? The reason I am asking is because I have extra time (1.5x), and I don't want to make the writing sample too long. Thanks so much. #help

The average typing speed is around 40 words per minute, so approximately 1200 words for 30 minutes (assuming you will use 5 min to think about the topic & proofread). While you are writing an essay, your effective typing speed will be cut down drastically. Maybe aim for 400-600 words.

It's more about how you write and how you structure your arguments rather than a contest on the quantity of your writing.

Howdy, Stranger!
