LSAT Prep You May Already Be Paying For: LawHub Access and Tuition Reimbursement
Here's two things most LSAT students do not know. First, if you are enrolled in a program licensed by LSAC to use official PrepTest material, LawHub access is included as a condition of that license, so a separate subscription is usually unnecessary. Second, LSAT prep from a real, registered provider is often reimbursable through VA education benefits, Veteran Readiness and Employment, DoD programs, state vocational rehabilitation, and state workforce development programs.

Healthy vs. Unhealthy Perfectionism on the LSAT: Why Chasing a 180 Isn't the Same as Chasing Perfect
Perfectionism gets a bad reputation in test prep circles, and mostly for good reason. But the advice students usually hear — "stop being such a perfectionist" — is both unhelpful and wrong. The drive that makes someone review every missed question at 11 p.m. is the same drive that produces a 175. The problem isn't the drive. It's what the drive is attached to. There is a real, well-documented distinction between two kinds of perfectionism. One of them predicts higher scores,

Still on a Law School Waitlist in June 2026? Here's What's Happening — and What to Do Right Now
This is not hyperbole. The 2025-2026 law school admissions cycle is genuinely historic in its competitiveness, and if you are sitting on a waitlist wondering why, the answer is not you — it is the math. LSAC's Susan Krinsky, Executive Vice President, reported in April 2026 that over 75,000 individuals had applied to at least one law school this cycle — compared to an average of just over 59,000 in the prior four years. That is a 27% increase in the applicant base in a single

LSAT Reading Comprehension Tips: Why You're Looking at the Page Instead of Reading It
Reading is a two-part process. The first part is decoding the words on the page. The second part, the part that actually matters, is interpreting, processing, and understanding what those words mean. When both parts are working together, information moves from the page into your mind and stays there. When only the first part is happening, your eyes are moving but nothing is landing.

Prevent the LSAT Test Anxiety Score Drop with Proven Strategies
The research is clear: studies show that students in the highest test anxiety bracket score approximately 10% lower than their low-anxiety peers — not because they studied less or know the material less well, but because their nervous system is actively interfering with retrieval and reasoning at the moment of performance. For LSAT takers managing learning differences, ADHD, or prior academic trauma, that dysregulation can be even more pronounced.

What Is a Good LSAT Score — And What Score Do You Actually Need?
