[blindlaw] LSAT test taking strategies

[Bill Spiry]

I used coins, they let me bring in a pocket full of change and use them to
diagram and manipulate the elements on a table top.

Excel is a great option. I also used magnetic boards with magnetic pieces to
create diagrams, which was very helpful. You can get them on Maxiaids. I
think it's called a magnetic braille alphabet board or something like that.

Michal,

So great to see you on this list - welcome!  It's been ...a really long time
... since I took the LSAT, but I suggest you work out a system with Excel.
I use it when I'm working on convention logistics, which is very much like
some of those logic games.  For example, I'll assign each item to a cell in
a column going down.  Then I'll manipulate the order using whatever ordering
characteristic I have in a horizontal row lower on the page.  I'll use this
in real life, for example, when I'm working out how to seat people on stage
during the banquet (who needs to be near the microphone, who is allergic to
dogs, who can't sit next to someone else's husband, etc.).  

Another suggestion is for some sort of tactile method.  Can't remember if
you use Braille, but I'll sometimes tear up a piece of paper, label each
piece in Braille, and then move it around on the table based on the needed
characteristics.

Just some suggestions.

Good luck.

Ronza

Hi everyone,

My name is Michal Nowicki and I am registered to take the LSAT in June. As I
am preparing for this important exam, I am particularly concerned with the
logic games sections because I can't find an effective way to keep track of
all the conditions., and the suggested strategies are visual. I was approved
to take the exam using a computer with JAWS. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY
DIAGRAMMING STRATEGIES? THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

Michal
