[BETA] Welcome to the Official LSAT Prep Forum!

How many official LSAT questions will be available in total?

Is there a specified time and date that the diagnostic portion has to be completed? My work schedule is hectic this week and I wont have a lot of time to sit and complete it until Saturday. 

@Tamika - No, there is no specific submission time required! The program is meant to be used at the schedule that works best for you 

[Comment] I haven't gotten a chance to spend too much time on the diagnostic section yet, and I did see that you're already working on adding an option to print out tests (which would be one way of countering this issue), but the inability to sketch out an order makes the analytical reasoning section infinitly more difficult (especially as I didn't have any separate scratch paper prepared). If there were either a section for brief notes or a notice to have a bit of paper ready beforehand I think that would be incredibly helpful.

I've only gone through one of the logical reasoning sections, but several of those questions seemed more simplistic than the ones I've encountered in official LSAT prep books.

Totally befuddled by this test. To be honest I have 6 books they don't read themselves. I am grateful to have this opportunity. I did better on the 1st test than I thought I would although it went WAAAAYYY over the time allotted. I will keep trying. Thanks again.  

I'm having a difficult time not being able to sketch and annotate as I read. I agree with the previous post having the option to print would be a plus. 

Is this beta LSAT program also available on an App? 

So far so good.  I find the related videos to be very, very helpful.  I have watched many different YouTube and other paid LSAT videos and found these here to be more clear and understandable. 

It's really allowed me to see where my weaknesses have been all along, I am so happy that we are given study schedules that will help accordingly! Thank you!

Since even the lessons/exercises are being timed, it would be great if on the completion page it says how much time you took to answer the question. I think that way we could see how long we are averaging between reading the questions and clicking submit (not including time wasted reading explanations). 

I agree that the ability to print tests/exercises is SOOO needed! Especially the test - I don't want to get too used to doing it all on the computer and let that effect the way I do with paper/pencil. 

The diagnostic test at is not timed helped me see where I needed help in the LR. However, it would be great to have extra practice problems that can be printable.

I took my diagnostic test and it forced me to refresh my test and lose the answers to some of my questions, it overall wasn't a huge inconvenience because I only lost 2 and remembered the answers but that should be checked especially if it has the possibility to lose more than a few answers.

For the LSAT expressed diagnostics, I think it would be helpful to increase the number of levels per sections (for example, logical reasoning) by at least one or two levels. However, when utilizing the review answers option, I found the explanations for each answer as to why it was correct or incorrect and the tips/strategies for the specific types of questions to be very helpful. 

Why call it "Analytic Reasoning" versus the popular and more common "Logic Games"?

I like the diagnosis tool to help me see where I need improvement but I think the format of the questions should conform more to looking like the actual LSAT format.  At first, the format itself threw me off a little and it took time for me to conform to the new format.  You don't want the reverse effect happening when a student gets to the actual LSAT.  thank you

I completely agree about making the cross-out button a "one-click" action. That is exactly what I came on to say.

I am really enjoying the program so far, and am super grateful for the chance to use it. It is a very efficient way to study without having a jumble of papers everywhere and flipping through several tabs from different websites.

One thing I would add would be the ability to input a test score taken independently/off-line into the progress plan. I really enjoy studying on-line, but definitely want to continue to do full-length practice tests in the official LSAC books I recently purchased. Ideally, I could plug in those scores and still get the "progress trophy" and consideration towards my goal.

Thanks for the help and for reading!

I love Khan Academy and used it to score well on my GRE. 

The one concern I have is not being able to write on the screen as I would be able to do on a paper test and cross out the wrong answers. 

Besides that, I like the program thus far and enjoy the assessment tools given to me in order to show my weaknesses. 

There is a way to cross out answers; it is at the right corner of that option. You should be able to see three little dots (...) to click on and it will cross that answer option out. You still have to select the final answer though, even if you have crossed out all but the final answer.  I found this helpful.  

I really like that there are tutorial videos in diagnostic test results. These show for questions we got wrong. I also like that steps are broken down for you too during the result sections. I enjoy that they give you the confident/pretty sure/ and no idea button, because it allows us to see if we're actually where we think we are. If I answered a lot of questions confidently but was getting them incorrect it would show I should change my approach. I wish it would show us the percentage of what we got right and wrong within this function too, like you got 3/5 confident answer choices wrong and then a percentage. I wish that we could adjust the schedule times a head of time. Currently it appears to be set up like each Monday you have practice time at whatever hour, however I don't have a set schedule so it would make it easier if that was adjustable. 

While I was completing my diagnostic exam, the page crashed several times and I had to wait for it to reload. 

I like that the schedule is specialized to how much time I want to dedicate to practicing, how much I want to achieve on the actual LSAT, and where my weaknesses and strengths lie. I also find the texts summarizing strategies and approaches of a question type helpful.

I also agree that it would be nice to have the option of adding in test-scores taken offline. 

So far so good. Thank you!  

The ability to take full-length practice tests is appreciated.

I have taken two full-length paper practice tests before, as well as several timed individual section tests, and prefer being able to do scratch work and underlining on paper.

Main issues:

1. Currently (on my browser--Edge) I am unable to highlight text in the reading comprehension section.

2. Having to scroll between paragraphs on reading comprehension passages is unfortunate. On paper, you can see the entire passage at once making it easier to find lines, locate specific paragraphs, etc. Scrolling is eating valuable time. 

3. Crossing out incorrect answer choices for any section is clunky and time-consuming compared to striking out choices on paper.

The chance to test the beta, however, is great. I do plan to incorporate Khan into my LSAT preparation and having my problem areas identified and emphasized is a great service. 

Thank you!

Aside from creating your own study schedule that fits your actual schedule, is there a setting to - or does the program schedule you to do 'X' on this day, and "Y" on that day? Likewise, does it direct you on how much time to work on given sections or type of questions, and actively respond to your progress?

No complaints thus far, very appreciative of this access and the assistance it has given me up to now.

Thank you!

While you are taking a practice test, I do not see where the remaining amount of questions left within a section is listed. I would expect this to be down near the elapsed time. It does tell you how many questions are within a section before you begin, but once you are taking the test it would be nice to know how many questions are left within the section.

So far, I agree with what the majority has to say. My biggest concern is not being allowed to annotate while working, but it is an online study program so it's not something that is going to turn me away from free, helpful test prep materials. 

I agree with the suggestion to make the "cross out" option easier/quicker to access, instead of being in a sub-menu.

Additionally, I personally would find it helpful if there was an easy way to mark an answer as a "maybe." I also would find it helpful to be able to mark a question to come back to later (e.g. on the diagnostic).

Also, when doing an analytical reasoning (logic games) section, I enjoy being able to see all questions at once first, as I sometimes tackle questions out of order, or refer to other questions to help solve others.

Above all, printing would be best, as it's hard (and slow) to work from screen to paper and back, especially without the ability to underline/annotate.

I am glad to be part of the beta test, its been a very long time since the last time I took the LSAT, so i am looking forward to this process. 

I like the section by section break downs. I have gone through most of the analytical reasoning sub-section and I am impressed by the ease of navigation. I like how you can find the links as your are reading the info, but also in the side navigation bar - super helpful! 

I also like how there are options for the diagnostic test. Though I certainly see the benefit in a 3 hour diagnostic, sometimes something shorter is more practical/plausible. Hopefully going to finish the diagnostic on the weekend, and be able to provide some more thorough feedback. 

Thanks for letting me participate! 

Maybe for the practice Reading Comprehension drills, wait a little longer before repeating a passage so that way we can learn from our old mistakes but not get the answers correct because we remembered them from before
