How our 1,181 practice questions break down by type
Two-thirds of the bank is Logical Reasoning and one-third is Reading Comprehension. Inside Logical Reasoning, no single question type dominates: each of the 12 types holds between 6.4% and 10.0% of LR questions.
The method
A script counted the type field on every question in the bank and tallied distinct RC passages by their passage text. N=1,181 questions, computed 2026-10-12.
The numbers
| Section | Questions | Share of bank |
|---|---|---|
| Logical Reasoning | 783 | 66.3% |
| Reading Comprehension | 398 | 33.7% |
Inside Logical Reasoning (n=783), the 12 question types split like this:
| Question type | Questions | Share of LR |
|---|---|---|
| Logical Reasoning | 78 | 10.0% |
| LR | 78 | 10.0% |
| Strengthen | 72 | 9.2% |
| Necessary Assumption | 72 | 9.2% |
| Inference (Must Be True) | 72 | 9.2% |
| Flaw in the Reasoning | 71 | 9.1% |
| Weaken | 69 | 8.8% |
| Parallel Reasoning | 58 | 7.4% |
| Sufficient Assumption | 56 | 7.2% |
| Main Point | 55 | 7.0% |
| Method of Reasoning | 52 | 6.6% |
| Point at Issue | 50 | 6.4% |
Reading Comprehension questions draw on 58 distinct passages.
What this means for students
The mix is deliberate. A bank that was 90% Strengthen questions would teach you one skill; this one spreads practice across every type you will see on test day. The even split also means you can drill your weakest types without running out of material: even the smallest type, Point at Issue, has 50 questions.
Reading Comprehension is one-third of the bank because it is roughly one-third of the scored LSAT. The 58 passages cover a range of subjects, so you practice reading unfamiliar material, which is the actual RC skill.
Computed from the LSATPathway original question bank (N=1,181 questions) on 2026-10-12.
