  I'd say I am between 4-6 and will be upping that to around 8 in April.

  I'm a full time student, but as JY says, studying for the LSAT is your JOB. So I usually wake up and study for 2 hours, go to class, eat, workout, pray, homework etc., then I study from 7-10 for an average of 4-6 hours per day. But like Alex, once school lets out and the June test approaches, I'll up that to full time LSAT prep.

  I work full time (40-45 hours per week) and study 1-1.5 hours M-F and 2-3 hours on Sundays. Planning on using this schedule for the next 1-2 years- however long it takes as I cannot increase my study hours while working Full Time.

  M-F I study ~4 hours and work ~6 hours. Saturdays I study 4-6 hours. I take Sundays off and ponder the unexplained mysteries of the universe like "What is JY's voice's spirit animal? Is it a cheetah or the Roadrunner?"

  I work full time and have a very demanding schedule. I study 3-4 hours during M-Th after work, work out at least 3 days a week, take a break on Fridays, and study at least 4 hours on Saturday and Sunday.

  @Thoughtful it is not the number of hours you spend studying that matters, it is how well you utilize your study time that does (i.e. how proper your study methods are).

  I am full time LSAT. 8 hours a day, 6-7 days a week (8 hours not including breaks or time spent on my phone). By no means was this a "jump right into it" schedule. I started at 3-4 hours 4 days a week. Every week I added another day and some more time. It was a little over a month progression of increased overall time. I cannot go more time then this on a regular schedule. Any more time and I find myself burning out, so 8 is the sweet-spot for me.

  I am currently a full time student & study a couple hours a day for the LSAT, but I plan to study for the LSAT full time in the summer! You guys are all so inspiring to me- I am so glad I found this community!

  I aim for 3-4 hours during the week (while working full time) and as much as possible on the weekends (ideally 8). Just make sure to take time off when you feel unproductive to avoid burnouts!

  Depends if I work that day or not. If I work then 2-3 hours. If I don't work then a full 8 hours.
