8-Week LSAT Plan
The standard two-month build: fundamentals, then untimed drilling, then timed work, then a taper.
Who this template is for
You have about two months and a normal schedule. Your baseline can be anywhere. This plan builds from fundamentals up, in order, with no skipped steps.
Phase by phase
-
Weeks 1–2: Fundamentals
- Take the free diagnostic before day one.
- Work through the LR fundamentals lessons: argument structure, conditional logic, the big question types.
- RC fundamentals: passage structure, main idea, author attitude.
- Everything untimed. Speed comes later.
-
Weeks 3–5: Untimed drilling by type
- Drill one question type at a time until accuracy is solid before moving on.
- Blind review every drill set.
- Start a wrong-answer journal in week 3 and keep it current.
-
Weeks 6–7: Timed work
- Two timed sections per week, graded and reviewed same-day.
- One full practice test in week 7.
- Shift the drill ratio: 70% timed, 30% untimed weak-type cleanup.
-
Week 8: Taper
- One full practice test early in the week.
- Last 3 days: review the journal, light drills, sleep.
- No new material in the final week.
Your week, on repeat
| Day | Focus |
|---|---|
| Monday | Fundamentals lesson or drill set (60–90 min) |
| Tuesday | Drill set on the current question type |
| Wednesday | RC passage set |
| Thursday | Drill set + blind review |
| Friday | Wrong-answer journal review |
| Saturday | Longer session: two drills or one timed section |
| Sunday | Rest |
Rules for this template
- Fundamentals before speed. No timed work until untimed accuracy is solid.
- One question type at a time. Mixing types too early hides what is actually weak.
- The journal is the plan: patterns in your misses decide next week’s drills.
