An independent, unofficial guide to the current LSAT format — not affiliated with or endorsed by the Law School Admission Council (LSAC).
Format last checked: August 2026. The Analytical Reasoning ("Logic Games") section was permanently removed from the LSAT in August 2024 and replaced with a second Logical Reasoning section. If you've seen older prep material with Logic Games, it's out of date.

How this platform's mock exam differs
To keep every question here 100% original (no LSAC material is reproduced anywhere on this site), the mock exam currently runs two 15-question Logical Reasoning sections and one 3-passage/18-question Reading Comprehension section — shorter than the official ~76-question count, but timed at the real 35 minutes per section, so your pacing practice is realistic. We don't simulate the unscored experimental section, since it wouldn't teach you anything new.
A note on scoring
The scaled score (120–180) shown after a mock exam is an illustrative estimate built from generally reported concordance patterns — it is not LSAC's official, per-test curve, which is proprietary and varies slightly test to test. Use it as a rough compass heading, not a guarantee.

Practice Bank
Untimed, with explanations. Filter by section or question type, answer, then reveal the explanation whenever you're ready.
Full Timed Mock Exam
Three sections, 35 minutes each, taken in order with no pausing — just like test day.
Section 1 — Logical Reasoning (15 original questions, 35 min)
Section 2 — Logical Reasoning (15 original questions, 35 min)
Once you start a section, the clock runs continuously and auto-submits when it hits zero. Explanations are withheld until you finish all three sections.
