As you prepare for the LSAT, here are some tips to train your test-taking muscles!
#1: Read for at least 20 minutes every day.
On the LSAT Reading Comprehension section, you will come across essays written on a wide range of topics. You will need to read each passage thoroughly, retain and understand what you’ve read, and answer the corresponding questions as fast as you can. The best way to exercise these muscles is through daily reading practice. News articles. Nonfiction books. Academic journals. It can be anything, as long as you’re reading!
#2: Practice mindfulness meditation for 5-10 minutes.
I know this one is tough, but meditation is a practice in focus. It teaches you to concentrate better, which is an essential skill for LSAT success. Challenge yourself to focus solely on your breath or a sound or the wall for a short period of time every day, and you will gradually find it easier to focus on each section of the LSAT.
#3: Sleep for 7-8 hours each night.
To perform your best on the LSAT, your brain must be well-rested. The surest way to maintain prime testing shape is to prioritize a healthy sleep schedule. Take time to discover what works best for you, but many benefit from powering off electronics a couple hours before bed or keeping the room at a cool temperature. So long as you feel an improvement in your energy levels, you’ll know your schedule is on the right track.
We hope you can incorporate these simple tips into your routine as you prepare for the LSAT. In no time, you will read more deeply, focus better, and have oodles of energy! You can do it!
