I don’t plan on taking the LSAT for at least another two years but I feel compelled to start studying now. At the same time, I’m worried I will take it too easy and not be well-prepared come test time. What is a good study schedule for someone who has more than three or four months before taking the LSAT?
I would study for a bit and see how you do on real-time practice tests and then take a Kaplan (or similar) test-prep class, but closer to test time. 2 years is a lot of time, but no, it’s not possible to overstudy for the LSAT unless you’re already scoring 180.
Don’t. Instead, take some classes which require critical reading and thinkings skills. Philosophy is a good one, IMO.
3-4 monts is all most folks need. There are plenty of 3-4 study plans available on the 'net, particularly on blogs that focus on students who hope to attend Top Law Schools (hint-hint).
