Timing On Both LSAT Sections

[Oz29xr8]

Hello, I’ve been wanting to know a little bit more on timing. In my case I have 50% more extra time for the exam which is 53 minutes for each section. I would like to know how much time I should dedicate for each question? How much time do I dedicate to the first 10 questions of the Logical Reasoning section? Also, how do I divide my time wisely to solve questions on the Logical Reasoning section and Reading Comprehension section? How much time should I dedicate to reading the passages on the Reading Comprehension questions? Thank you.

Hi Oz,

If you look at LR, in a 25 question section you have 127 seconds per question, so basically 2 minutes for each one. Personally I'd look to do the first 10 in about 17 minutes, or around 1 minute 45 seconds per question.

In RC, you'll have about 13 minutes per passage on average. As for how much time you spend reading, that depends on your speed of reading in general. 4-5 minutes maybe? You need to test different speeds and see how it sits with you to know for sure.

Thanks!
