Top Law Schools

Should i be focusing my LR Prep on drilling ( Cambridge packets) or should my focus instead be on individual Lr Sections from PT"s ?

I'm currently missing on average 3-5 per section....but when I go back to review sections at times I sometimes find difficulties reasoning why the incorrect answer I eliminated was wrong

I have a Kaplan book that has LR questions organized by section but I may purchase the LR packets in addition.

I see pros and cons of each strategy

Drilling: By drilling I would get much more information on specific question types.....but i may lose the skills on the other LR question types


Individual sections : helpful in that it gives a mixed review of all the question types I will see...but maybe too broad and not specific enough

( I am taking the Dec LSAT )

Drill. You need to practice the specific types of questions and what you need to look for and the method that each type of question requires. By drilling you reinforce that where as if you work on sections you can't practice. Drill now and save the sections for later so you can work on timing. Just make sure you have enough tests to practice on Saturday mornings.

Drilling is important for maybe the first early phase, personally I think timed sections are everything. It's how you get good at so many skills needed...time management, identifying difficulty, ability to change between question types effectively, etc.
