The June 2009 LSAT is Coming Up

The June 2009 LSAT is coming and is practically around the corner.  The June LSAT is usually the most important running of the LSAT each year.  Currently, LSAC administers the test in June, September, December and February.  The June exam is the first chance for Undergrad juniors and seniors to earn a good score on the exam, apply early and get a leg up on some of the competition in the law school admissions process.  The overachievers that are ready, prepared and ultimately take the June LSAT are usually rewarded with much higher test scores - with scores often falling off for each running of the exam - with the worst performers (or test takers) usually taking the exam for the first time or again in February.  Thus, it really pays to be early when it comes to taking the LSAT.  In fact, the LSAT is “normalized” to a 154 by LSAC in June, whereas all other exams start at a lower point.

Preparing for the June LSAT need not be a major precoccupation or hassle.  In fact, we recommend just four to six weeks of preparation.  LSAT prep is a typical “Goldilocks” problem - when you sit for the exam you don’t want to be burnt out (too warm) from LSAT work nor do you want to be completely unprepared (too cold), instead you want to time it just right, and that’s exactly what 4-6 weeks of preparation will provide for.  The sole goal of your preparation should be learning what makes the different types of problems tick, as once you understand the formula you can unravel nearly any problem.  So goes the way of standardized exams!
