LSAT Test Sections & Scoring

How long is the LSAT test? 

The LSAT consists of four 35-minute sections of multiple-choice questions, only three of which count toward your score. The LSAT also includes a 35-minute writing sample, proctored on demand. While the writing sample isn't scored, copies of it are sent to schools along with LSAT scores.

Reading Comprehension

  1. Measures a test taker’s ability to comprehend complex texts similar to those commonly read in law school

  2. 35 Minutes / 27 questions

  3. Passages feature several genres, including humanities, social sciences, biological and physical sciences, and law

  4. One set of questions contains two related, shorter passages

Analytical Reasoning

  1. Measures a test taker’s ability to understand a structure of relationships and to draw logical conclusions from that structure

  2. 35 minutes / 23 questions

  3. Commonly referred to as “Logic Games”

  4. Each “game” provides a set of rules and conditions and asks questions about what could or must be true based on these parameters; most games involve determining grouping or ordering relationships (or both)

Logical Reasoning

  1. Assesses a test taker’s ability to analyze, critically evaluate, and complete arguments

  2. 35 minutes / 25 questions

  3. Consists of short arguments drawn from a wide-ranging source of topics, each accompanied by a question

  4. Commonly referred to as “Arguments”

Writing

  1. Measures test takers’ reasoning, clarity, organization, language usage, and writing mechanics

  2. 35 minutes / 1 prompt

  3. Students are tasked with choosing between two positions or courses of action, providing clear and cogent reasoning for the position they choose and thoughtful criticism of the position they reject

Scoring

  1. The LSAT is scored based on the number of questions answered correctly (the “raw score”), which is converted to a scoring scale between 120 and 180. The scale for each test is equated to account for minor differences in difficulty between LSAT test forms.

Thanks to Ben’s personalized guidance during our time together, I was able to come out of my LSAT with an increase from 150 to 163. This score helped me enter law school with a sizable merit scholarship!

 Frequently Asked Questions

  • It depends on the programs you have in mind. A good place to start is by looking at the 25th-75th LSAT percentiles for your target schools. A score below this range makes you a weaker candidate, while a score above the range makes you especially attractive. For a general rule of thumb, most accredited law schools admit students with LSAT scores of 150 or higher. For a top-25 school, you'll want a score of at least 160; for a top-10 program, aim for a score of 170+. 

  • The LSAC allows test takers to sit for the LSAT up to three times in a single year, up to five times within five years, and up to seven times in a lifetime. But, having a sound LSAT test prep plan may allow you to reach your target score in just one try. Given that the LSAC has released nearly 100 official tests, there's no lack of good study material. With the right strategy, plenty of practice, and careful review of your mistakes, it's possible to reach your goal score on your first attempt.

    That said, law schools are most interested in your highest score. If you're not happy with your current results, our LSAT tutoring service can help you develop a study plan that will allow you to reach your goal on the next attempt.  

  • The LSAT is known to be an exceptionally challenging test because it assesses skills not normally taught in typical undergraduate courses. The exam is designed to measure your critical thinking skills, analysis of complex arguments, and comprehension of intricate texts -- core skills necessary to be successful in law school. With diligent studying, the help of the best LSAT tutors, and a personalized preparation plan and guidance, you can overcome these challenges and ace your exam. 

  • This depends on your baseline score and your target score. A good place to begin is by taking a full-length, timed practice LSAT. Then it's time to make a plan. Under ideal circumstances, give yourself about six months to study. Even under tighter timelines, plan on no fewer than eight weeks. You need extensive practice to gain deep familiarity with each section of the exam. It also takes time to repair weaknesses and develop the skill sets required to navigate the test successfully. Working with an LSAT tutor ensures both of these processes remain efficient. 

  • Hourly 1:1 LSAT tutoring starts at $225/session. Investing in private tutoring will provide you with a personalized plan as well as targeted strategies key to achieving a high score. Read more about pricing and packages.
