Are the reading passages that are labeled as homework in the online course the same or different passages from the passages in the drill sets so I’m not repeating passages.

Thanks

Hi cdb,

I'm assuming the drill sets you're referring to are the ones that are in the Testing and Analytics Package (which is a separate product from the course). If so, yes, there will be some overlap between the drill sets and the course homework.

The Testing and Analytics drill sets are sourced mostly from PTs 1-40. Similarly, we use older test questions in the course HW. This is done so that students can reserve the newer tests for timed PTs.

That being said, some overlap/repetition when doing practice questions untimed (either via the course homework or the TA drill sets) is not going to be detrimental, as there is still plenty you can learn from questions you've already seen. This post might be helpful if you find yourself in that scenario: https://blog.powerscore.com/lsat/bid-23 ... questions/.

Thanks!

If you are talking just the course though, then the drills are different :-D
