Logic Games Masterclass I

Tuesday, September 20th | 8:30 – 9:30 pm EST

Learn the most efficient process for evaluating the Logic Games section on the LSAT and see how to apply that process to a real Logic Game from an Official LSAT PrepTest. This masterclass features strategies on how to identify a game type, create a sketch, notate rules, and make deductions as well as how to understand levels of truth, identify question types, and apply question-specific strategies.

Logic Games Masterclass II

Wednesday, September 21st | 8:30 – 9:30 pm EST

Review the process for evaluating the Logic Games section covered in the prior masterclass and apply that process to another real Logic Game from an Official LSAT PrepTest. Learn additional strategies on how to identify a different game type within the Logic Games section and how to create a sketch, notate rules, and make deductions for the different game type.

Interested students can register for free through the link below to get access to both LSAT Masterclasses.
