    The Week Before the LSAT: What to Do, Day by Day (Full Guide)

    Free LSAT cheat sheet: https://www.unpluggedprep.com/cheatsheet/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=final-week-epic The November LSAT starts November 11. Do your writing sample first: it opens about 8 days before the test, and LSAC won't release your score without it. This is your last week, day by day, through test morning at the test center: your last practice tests, review, sleep and nerves, check-in and the break, pacing, the experimental section, and the hours after. Find your chapter below, or let it run.

    November 2026 LSAT Predictions

    Free November LSAT drill sets, one practice passage for every topic in my top tier: https://www.unpluggedprep.com/drill/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=nov-predictions-epic (look for the November banner) These are the 12 Reading Comp passages I think are most likely to come back on the November LSAT. After the list, I show you how to read each kind when one shows up (law, science, humanities, comparative), and what to do in the 10 seconds after you recognize it. Then Logical Reasoning, because it's 2 of your 3 scored sections. Before the October LSAT, I posted my top 12. 4 of them came back on sections that counted. A random 12 would have caught about 1. Honestly, the list is a bet, not a leak. I don't have LSAC's tests, and nobody else does either. The teaching parts come from my past lessons, cut down to what still applies to the current test.
