Award-Winning LSAT Courses & Classes in Las Vegas, NV

If you feel like you could benefit from some extra help as you prepare for the LSAT, you may want to consider contacting Varsity Tutors to sign up for a Las Vegas LSAT class. The LSAT is a standardized test that assesses several key skills when it comes to predicting success in law school. It is used by every ABA-accredited law school as a portion of their admissions process. While it is not the only factor when it comes to getting accepted into a law school like the William S. Boyd School of Law at the University of Nevada Las Vegas, it does play a role.

When you finally reach test day, the process starts with heading to a testing center and taking the test on a digital tablet. To answer a question, you simply need to tap on the answer you want to choose. Taking the test on a tablet provides a few benefits as compared to taking it on paper. One such benefit is that you'll have a timer that gives you an idea as to how much time you have left on each section. Additionally, you'll have an option to mark any questions you might want to go back to if you have any time left over at the end of the section.

Only three of the four sections on the LSAT are taken on the tablet. The fourth section, Writing, is taken on a secure online platform. The Writing section has to be completed within a year of completing the other three sections.

In terms of scoring, the LSAT is primarily focused on the number of questions you answer correctly. Every question is weighted equally so the exact number of questions you get right matters more than answering any particular questions correctly. Additionally, you do not receive any kind of deduction if you answer a question wrong. Thus, if you don't happen to know how to answer a question, it is okay for you to guess because you won't be penalized for guessing wrong.

What can a Las Vegas LSAT class help me review?

The LSAT contains four distinct sections, including Writing, Logical Reasoning, Analytical Reasoning, and Reading Comprehension. All of these sections test different skills that are said to translate into predicting success in law school.

The Writing section asks you to evaluate two different potential courses of action or positions and make a decision on which you would like to defend. Neither answer is considered right or wrong, but you must be able to use logic and reason to defend your choice.

Logical Reasoning looks at your ability to analyze and evaluate different arguments. This section provides information from a wide range of sources, including informal discourse, scholarly publications, and magazines, among others. This section assesses your skills in several areas, such as whether you can identify flaws within an argument, if you can reason by using analogies, and how well you're able to recognize the different aspects of an argument and how they relate to each other.

Analytical Reasoning assesses your ability to comprehend the structure of a relationship and whether you can draw conclusions from it. In terms of skills, this section measures whether you are able to infer whether something is true or not based on the facts you've been provided, how well you can reason with conditional statements, and if you can decide what is true or not based on a hypothetical situation.

Finally, the Reading Comprehension section asks you to read through complex passages and answer questions to demonstrate your ability to understand difficult texts.

How can a Las Vegas LSAT course help me prepare for the exam?

There are a lot of different ways in which a Las Vegas LSAT course can help you prepare for the exam. One way an instructor in an LSAT course can help is by going over the subject areas that are likely to be on the test. The LSAT draws information from a lot of different areas. As such, it can seem overwhelming if you aren't sure how to break down this material into more manageable parts.

It can also help to work on getting more familiar with the type of vocabulary words and question phrasing that might be on the test. There may be words or phrases that you don't understand, which can make it difficult to answer a question correctly. Your instructor in your Las Vegas LSAT course can help in this regard by going over the types of words or phrases that might be on the test. However, it is always possible that there will be words or phrases on the test that you didn't go over in your course or come across in your study material. As such, it can be just as important to work with your instructor to be able to answer questions based on context when you don't know the specific word or phrase.

Attending a Las Vegas LSAT class is easy because it is entirely online. Thus, it makes it easy for you to find a way to a class that fits into your schedule. You won't have to commute to your class because you can simply sign into class from your house or anywhere else you feel comfortable as long as you have an Internet connection.

Your class takes the form of a traditional classroom setting. You will work with an instructor who can help guide you through the review process. But you will also be working with other students who can provide insight into the way they go about using reason and logic. There is no one right way to use reason or logic and it can be helpful to get alternative perspectives in this area.
