Highlights

The fancier and more rigid we are as we talk about the test, the more pressure and anxiety we bring into the situation. While the legal world and the LSAT seem very “extra” in both diction and syntax, it is important to remain conversational and casual when interacting with the test. Today, we talked about how to be simple and plain with the test. That will help you win because it’s so much harder to screw up when you speak plainly. More importantly, it’s easier to be accurate and critical when you think in plain terms. As a philosophy major, I will put it like this: be Plato, not Nietzsche.
