To round out our discussion on the
different sections of the LSAT, today we're going to look at the
logical reasoning portion. These sections will ask you to analyze
arguments and evaluate their components. Much like the rest of the
test, logical reasoning sections ask test-takers to first read a
passage and then answer the follow-up questions.
Number of sections: 2
Length: 35 minutes for each
Format: 24-26 questions per section
Objectives: Analysis and evaluation of
arguments
Question types: Assumptions, flaws,
strengths, weaknesses, principle, analysis, inference, and
application
The above format leaves test-takers
with about 1.4 minutes per question.
A few tips to get you started with
logical reasoning practice:
- Watch for qualifying words like “many” and “some”
- Pay attention to the wording of each question and answer choice
- Analyze the passage's structure as well as its content
- Diagram the arguments if helpful
