Since August, test takers have been reporting the same thing. They open Reading Comp on the LSAT and recognize a passage from an older test. So I tracked every passage test takers reported across more than 2 years of tests and scored which ones look due back for October. These are my calls, in 3 tiers, with a place to practice each kind of passage. Most of these won't show up, and I say that in the video. The pattern beats a random guess, and that's all it does. A match on test day tells you to treat that section as scored. Then you do the passage fresh, like you've never seen it. LR is 2 of your 3 scored sections, so we cover that too, plus what to do between now and test day.

Of the first 107 schools to post, 84 raised their median and only 3 lowered it. I pulled 10 years of ABA 509 reports to show how far it's gone: at Villanova, this year's bottom quarter scored 5 points above the 2015 median. My answer is to fight fire with fire. I walk through what 3 LSAT points do to a real school list, how much your school's median changes your odds at the top jobs (69% vs 17%), and the roughly $75,000 scholarship gap inside a single school.

If your score stings, this video walks you through the one question that tells you whether to retake in November (6 weeks away) or January (15 weeks away). I cover how law schools treat multiple scores, what the average retaker gains, the Score Preview timing problem, and what it costs to switch dates after tomorrow.

LSAC's own numbers say more than 150 score audits last testing year found zero scoring errors. The bigger problem is the clock: November registration closes Thursday, October 1st, the day after scores, and November is the last LSAT of 2026. I go through what to do before Thursday night: the writing-sample hold that can delay your score, audit vs complaint vs Score Preview, a 10-minute keep-or-retake rule, what a second score and a cancel actually cost, and the 509 number that tells you whether a retake is worth your fall.
