Hey peeps, 2nd post on this forum here. I was just wondering as to what people's opinion is on what's the superior method of study: pithypike's schedule or the 16-week The LSAT Trainer's schedule? I have about 4 months out until the February test, and am trying to decide on which schedule to stick to.

Dope. I'm taking the Feb test too!

I'm actually sticking to Pithypike's & NoodleyOne's methods. The trainer study schedule seems to have you drill full sections of LG/LR whereas the above methods focus on mastery by question type. All across these forums and LSAT tutor friends I have, it has been generally agreed that mastering sections by question type is the most effective.

Hey - just wanted to clear up - trainer schedule has you starting w/ and doing mostly drill by type, then assigns mixed drilling as you get closer to test day -- sorry if that's not clear in any of my materials -- best of luck w/your prep -- MK

High-five Atticus! Let's crush that test!

Thanks Mike! I read through the introduction section of your book, and have been convinced to try out your method over one of your 16-week study schedules. I've already drilled assumption questions and linear logic games. Hopefully that early mentality doesn't get in the way of building a good foundation, as you suggest. Here's hoping for good results!

Had a big freak-out yesterday about what method to use. Thanks for the responses!
