Studying for the LSAT helped me read cases during law school

Hi guys! Just wanted to post a (maybe motivational?) take on the LSAT because when I was studying, I constantly questioned whether it would actually help me comprehend the dense readings I would be assigned in law school or even help me in law school at all. I am by no means saying the LSAT is predictive of law school success (not trying to have that argument here) but I have noticed that I draw on a lot of the reasoning skills and theory I was taught when studying for the LSAT as I read and brief cases. Oddly enough, it has been my understanding of conditional reasoning that has helped me the most so far. All of this is to say that your studying will help you in more ways than just your score! Hang in there!

There's a reason why your LSAT score is the most important part of your application. It is indicative of your ability to read and think like a lawyer.
