Studying for the LSAT

<p>I'm going to Harvard Law. Case closed. Decision made. </p>

<p>I simply need advice on studying for the LSAT. </p>

<p>How would one go about scoring a 175-180? </p>

<p>I am only a high school senior, and I plan to begin studying this summer. </p>

<p>Will 3+ years of studying lend myself a score in the range of 175-180 and a consequent acceptance to the Holy Sepulchre of American colleges?</p>

<p>No. Combined with a lot of natural talent, sure. Optimal studying time to avoid burnout is 6-20 weeks.</p>

<p>I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’ve heard that phrase way too many times in the past year.</p>

<p>I’m skeptical of the whole “burnout” notion – it sounds to me like a nocebo.</p>

<p>Robin Signh – arguably the best LSAT taker in the world – certainly didn’t burnout. In fact, he consistently performed better on the LSAT over the years. Also, many other LSAT teachers retake the test periodically and usually score as high or higher than they did when they first took the test.</p>

<p>They’re probably not studying intensively the whole time. They probably spend about a week a year brushing up.</p>

<p>Ironically, whenever you see that phrase here, it means that this board is getting dumber.</p>

<p>It’s really annoying when people purposely post things on message boards that they believe make them look smarter even though there is no person on this earth that actually talks that way. It’s a message board kid, your not impressing anyone.</p>

<p>lawyers don’t talk or write like that, but I admire your ambition. What do you think is so great about Harvard law?</p>

<p>You’ve obviously never met Number1HSSinUSA.</p>

<p>Harvard was the first instution of higher learning established in the United States. In my opinion, it is the best school in the country. It would be an honour to attend the Taj Mahal/Mecca/Colossus of Rhodes/Hanging Gardens of Babylon/Great Sphinx/Eiffel Tower/Parthenon/Buckingham Palace of institutions of higher learning: Harvard Law.</p>
