However, the courses have helped some students merely because they may reduce the anxiety level. Some students can successfully prepare on their own with the LSAT sample test included in the registration materials. The most important element of preparation is to familiarize yourself with the format of the test and the instructions for the different sections. The Social Science Division of NMSU offers an LSAT workshop three times a year to prepare students for the test. It is offered in the May, August, and December interims for one week.
Students can register for the workshop after pre-registration ends.
In the past, this workshop has increased the test scores of students by familiarizing them with the test and test-taking strategies. Contact Dr. Vorkink or a member of the Pre-Law Advisory Committee for more information. The transcripts, the summary, LSAT scores, and biographical data comprise the report that is sent to each school. Registration forms for the service are contained in the same registration packet referred to in the LSAT section. For a complete explanation of the transcript summarization, read the LSAS General Information Booklet included in the LSAT registration packet.
