The LSAT has four main components plus an experimental section: analytical reasoning (games), logical reasoning (arguments), reading comprehension, and a writing sample. It seems strange that part of such a difficult test would include games, but the analytical reasoning section is not a “fun” experience for most. In fact, it relies heavily on the use of Set Theory, though it’s possible to solve them without using mathematical tools.
Nova Press’s Master the LSAT can help you improve your analytical reasoning average. They break down the elements you should look for when reading the questions and helps you learn how to manage time for this section. No college course will prepare you for these, but Nova Press has put together materials to help you classify the games into major categories and teach you systematic ways to approach the problems.
After discussing the main classifications of games, Master the LSAT, describes the specific format of the games section, gives criteria to consider when trying to decide whether to skip a game or work on it, and suggests specific phraseology that test-writers use to confuse the test-takers. These may include ambiguity in the meaning of a word as well as wording a sentence such that you may make unwarranted assumptions.
Nova Press provides an extensive section on preparing you against those traps set by the test-writers. They then give practice tests for you to try out the strategies learned. These practice sections are followed by an answer section with detailed explanations on how to get the correct answer for each question. Further strategies are then introduced and reinforced before moving on to other sections devoted to the main categories of games.
Don’t just stress about improving your LSAT analytical reasoning average. Take action. Get the help you need: get Nova Press Master the LSAT.
