on your LSAT, I'm taking the LSAT over this fall and I'm wondering exactly how much time you spent studying for it and exactly how did you? Thanks.

koebe23-- I went to the "my mother" test prep academy. She is a high school teacher, and while she was writing lesson plans over the summer, she forced me to sit at the kitchen table for eight hours a day for one week, just working through book after book of practice tests and other stuff. It worked really well, and it cost a whole lot less than Kaplan.
