What Is the LSAT?
The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) is a standardized exam designed to measure skills that are considered essential for success in law school: reading comprehension, logical reasoning, and analytical thinking. Unlike exams that test memorized facts, the LSAT evaluates how well you can analyze complex information, evaluate arguments, and draw logical conclusions. Because law schools rely heavily on LSAT scores alongside undergraduate GPA to assess applicant readiness, structured and strategic preparation is a critical step in the admissions process.

Beginning with the August 2024 LSAT administration, the Law School Admission Council (LSAC) officially removed the Analytical Reasoning section, commonly known as Logic Games, from the test.
This section was replaced by a second scored Logical Reasoning section. While you may still encounter Logic Games in older preparation books, third-party forums, or historical materials, they are no longer part of the current LSAT.
If you are preparing for an upcoming test date, your study plan should focus exclusively on mastering Logical Reasoning and Reading Comprehension. Our tutoring and resources are fully updated to reflect this current format.
