Anything like Khan Academy's old LSAT drills? The new Lawhub is just worse

Miben segíthetünk?

I had really been hoping that all of the old khan academy content and style would just move over to lawhub, but it seems like this is not the case. Lawhub's service is limited to a pretty pitiable 14 drills which one will finish in a couple days if they're studying much at all. I was already buying lawhub advantage because I needed to take more full length tests, but not even the premium option comes with the content that used to be on KA. It looks like it is all gone.

No more use of spaced repetition or diagnostics for finding weak spots. For anything short of full length practice tests the service is objectively inferior, and they were already selling those full length tests before the partnership ended.

I am baffled as to why this happened - does LSAC think that inability to access the khan academy content will steer them to their premium service? People needed to buy lawhub advantage anyways because KA only had a few practice tests.

Anything like Khan Academy's old service? I would pay to have the old service again.

I agree 100%. I think some of the content might no longer be entirely applicable to the new format, but for the part that is the same there is no comparison in the quality of the content. I wonder if KA even needs LSAC permission to host this stuff? Could they just keep it up without being "Official"? Or maybe offer it under a private subscription? Lots of other study companies do that?

Hi! I hope too that Khan Academy considers bringing back the LSAT Prep practice on the platform. I understand that the old "test prep" and full practice tests platform has been deprecated, and even SAT Prep has moved to the mastery system instead of the earlier test prep interface.

I assume the questions are all still available on Khan Academy and LSAC databases, so I hope practice exercises and unit tests could be added to LSAT Prep on Khan Academy. The lessons in fact continue to be hosted although with a deprecated tag, but I also imagine that an Official LSAT Prep would need LSAC partnership.

I'm not sure if Khan Academy typically makes "unofficial" test prep content, since most courses are aligned to curriculum standards --- whether Common Core, NCERT, or AP --- but these LSAT Skills actually are tested in other exams as well. Lots of job recruitment exams in India, for instance, test logic and analytic puzzles.

So I think there's a pretty strong case to revise LSAT Practice in one form or another - even, perhaps, by reusing and remixing the content into other courses that are here to stay!

I have in mind, for instance, a College Reading Prep course that combines LSAT, SAT, and ELA materials into a handy mastery-enabled course for practising reading and reasoning. It may not perfectly map onto a specific curriculum but it sure is such a foundational academic skillset.

Similarly, there's a Critical Thinking course using Wireless Philosophy content. I'd love to see it incorporate content and practice from LSAT Logic - the breakdown of arguments, premises, conclusions, is all really accessibly covered in the course.
