New LSAT Format Preparation Questions (LSAT Newbie)

[maryrobins]

Hi everyone. I just graduated from my undergrad three days ago and will be teaching English abroad for a year starting in March, but I want to take the LSAT before I head out (just to clarify, I want to apply for law schools in 2025, not this year). I've only seen preparation (or discussions of preparation) for the old LSAT format, which includes the Logic Games section, but I'll most likely be taking the exam in October or November, if not later. I've been researching here and online but I would love some clarification on resources with this new format. I saw LSAC released new versions of the LSAT with the new format, but does this mean the old LSAT tests are no good? I would appreciate the help knowing what resources I should invest in (I have not bought anything yet for studying. Thanks!

Hi maryrobins,

We wouldn't recommend taking scored "old" LSAT full tests - because they include Logic Games. But you can absolutely still practice with "old" LSAT questions - you'll just want to ignore LG questions.

The LSAT practice tests for the "new" format are actually reuses/reconfigurations of older LSATs, but without the Logic Games section. They're available in LSAC Law Hub and PowerScore's LSAT Analytics package.
