Don’t Freak Out About Your First LSAT Practice Exam Score
Most Blueprint LSAT Prep live courses for the spring started on Sunday. This is big time super fun news for our students as they embark on their journey to a big time super fun June LSAT score. But as far as journeys go, this can be a rather traumatic one. If you’ve never taken an LSAT before, it’s a punishingly difficult test that’s incredibly long and tiring to boot. As you take it for the first time, you generally have no idea what the hell’s going on as you frantically bubble in those 125 multiple choice answers. When it’s finally over you stumble home in a daze, grade your LSAT practice exam, then get your LSAT score.
At this point, most people panic. Feelings of dread and uncertainty fill you when you see that your LSAT score is lower than you’d like. Like, way lower. Like, “Jesus Christ, oh, Jesus Christ” lower than you’d like.

The Final Four Tips for Those Starting June LSAT Prep
The NCAA tournament has reached its final weekend, and you know what that means: It’s Final Four time.
It’s also time to kick your LSAT prep into high gear if you’re planning on taking the June LSAT. Also, most Blueprint LSAT Prep classes start this weekend. With that in mind, here are your final four tips for successful LSAT study.
Final Four June LSAT Prep Tip #1: Seeding isn’t destiny
This year’s Final Four features Wichita State, who entered the tourney as a 9 seed. That didn’t stop the Shockers (I know, right) from knocking off the No. 1 seed in their region, Gonzaga. (How long will it be before Gonzaga is talked about as a potential No. 1 seed again?) Syracuse and Michigan, two of the other Final Four representatives, entered as No. 4 seeds, and each also knocked off a 1 seed.

Tips to Improve Your LSAT Study Habits (and LSAT Score)
LSAT prep season is getting in full swing. This winter, per usual, was a quiet time in the pre-law world; few people sit for the February LSAT, and there’s a lull of activity in the early months of the year. But springtime has sprung, and people are gearing up for the June LSAT. So what should you do if you’re planning on taking the test in a few months? Well, this may sound obvious, but you should study. You should study frequently, you should study well, you should study regularly. You should study.
Here are some LSAT study tips:
LSAT Study Tip I: Do the work
For those of you taking an LSAT prep course, whether online or in-person, it’s not enough to just do the lessons.

Your LSAT and Law School Timelines (Should) Start Today
Today we have a guest post from Anna Ivey, founder of Ivey Consulting.
What’s the ideal LSAT timeline? Your mileage may vary, and your LSAT instructor will be able to give you advice customized to your individual situation. But in a perfect world, here’s how I like to work backwards from the end goal:
Plan to submit your law school applications in early November (or even sooner, but early November is plenty early). In order to maximize the time you have on your applications, and to let your brain focus on — and master — one thing at a time, that November law school application submission date means I like to see people take the LSAT the February before that.

5 Tips for Nailing that Law School Admissions Interview
You made it through the LSAT. You asked for letters of recommendation. You even summarized your entire life on a single page (your résumé) before being given two pages (double-spaced) to convince the school that you’re interested in law (personal statement).
And if that wasn’t bad enough, they now want to interview you.
As the number of people applying for law schools decreases, many law schools are adding interviews to the application process. Fewer law school applicants makes this both logistically possible and important to creating a well-rounded class, instead of just taking anyone with a high academic index (the combination of your LSAT score and GPA) and a semi-interesting tale to weave.
Harvard, Chicago, and Georgetown all require interviews.

Daylight Savings Shows the Value of an Hour in LSAT Prep
If you haven’t noticed, your cell phone and microwave may be displaying different times. That’s because Daylight Savings was this weekend. With spring officially on the way, that means daylight lasts longer, snow starts melting, and life in general starts feeling just a little less terrible.
With it will bring barbecues, day drinking in the park, bike rides, beach trips, and other such wonderment. Unless you’re studying for the June LSAT, in which case you’ll be seeing a lot more LSAT logic games than sunny afternoons.
But if you spend the spring fastidiously preparing for the June LSAT, you can spend the summer as a free man (or woman).

June LSAT Prep Must: The Blueprint for LSAT Logic Games
It’s an interesting time in the world right now. There’s no Pope. Justin Bieber is in the early stages of his downfall. And Kim Jong-un is threatening to nuke America — despite Dennis Rodman’s best(?) efforts to convince him otherwise.
Also, the transition into June LSAT prep mode is happening right now. Law school applications numbers are expected to continue to fall, so most people taking the June LSAT really want to get into law school. As always, the higher your LSAT, the better your chances of admission. But if you want a high LSAT score, it’s going to take some work. And some help.
Enter: The Blueprint for LSAT Logic Games — the new LSAT book from Blueprint LSAT Prep.

LSAC to Release February LSAT Scores this Week
Good morning, children. If you took the February LSAT several weeks ago, this is going to be an important week because LSAC should be releasing your LSAT score sometime between now (right now! go check your email! not there? damn!) and Wednesday. The actual LSAC-estimated release date is on Wednesday itself, but they often send ‘em out early (assuming it’s not hurricane season).
How will you know when your February LSAT score’s ready? Well, LSAC actually emails you as soon as it’s available, so there’s no need to constantly refresh your LSAC homepage. Those of you on the east coast who had your February LSAT postponed due to inclement weather should also be getting an email along with everyone else, but only time will tell for sure. At any rate, it’ll be a very Spartan correspondence that matter-of-factly tells you what your February LSAT score was, along with its percentile.

The ABA Zeroes in on Law School Employment Data
I don’t know if you’ve heard, but law schools have been shamelessly inflating their employment statistics for years. Shocking, I know.
After cracking down on the way schools report their LSAT scores (a scandal or two helped push in that direction, *cough* Villanova and Illinois *cough*), the ABA has now turned its attention to law school employment data. In fact, the ABA is currently soliciting proposals, so feel free to throw your hat in the ring.
This is going to be a much more difficult program than the one designed to ensure correct LSAT info. For admissions data, the LSAC acts as a central repository for all law school application data. Anyone who has an LSAT score took the test through LSAC.
