PUT YOUR LEARNING IN CONTEXTFollow the evidence through the argument.AI-generated illustration
01

Separate premises from conclusions

Restate what the argument claims and what supports it. Identify the gap before evaluating an answer choice.

02

Test the role of each option

Strengthen, weaken, assumption and inference tasks ask different things. Decide what a correct answer must do before looking for familiar words.

03

Read for structure

Track viewpoints, shifts and the relationship between paragraphs. Use the passage to resolve the answer rather than relying on outside knowledge.

YOUR PRACTICE ROUTINE

Turn the next step into a habit.

  1. 01

    Establish your starting point

    Begin with an argument or passage and label its claim, support and qualifications. Practise distinguishing what must follow from what is merely plausible.

  2. 02

    Practise the difficult distinction

    Work on one question purpose at a time. State what a correct answer needs to achieve before comparing the options.

  3. 03

    Review before repeating

    Review a mixed timed set by the reasoning gap you missed. Reconstruct the argument in your own words and test the same principle with another question.

Passage

Passage A When a firm pollutes a river, the harm falls on downstream users who never consented to bear it. Economists call such spillovers externalities, and the classic remedy is a corrective tax equal to the marginal damage imposed on third parties. Once the polluter must pay for each unit of harm it creates, its private cost aligns with the true social cost, and it will curtail production to the level society would choose if the injured parties could bargain freely. The tax does not forbid pollution; it prices it. A firm that still finds it profitable to emit after paying the tax is, by hypothesis, generating value that exceeds the damage. The state's task is therefore not to eliminate the activity but to measure the damage accurately and let the price signal do the rest. Passage B The appeal of a pollution tax rests on a heroic premise: that a regulator can know the marginal damage of an emission. In practice, harm varies with wind, water flow, the number and vulnerability of those downstream, and interactions among pollutants that no agency can track in real time. A tax set too low licenses excessive harm; set too high, it needlessly destroys valuable output. Worse, the tax treats all victims as interchangeable holders of a monetized claim, when many would refuse any payment for a poisoned well. Assigning enforceable rights to the injured and letting them enjoin the polluter respects that refusal. Bargaining may then reallocate the right, but only on terms the rightholder accepts. The question is not merely how much pollution, but who decides.

  1. Question 1 · medium · Relationship Between Passages

    Which one of the following most accurately describes the relationship between the two passages?

    • Passage A defends a policy instrument that Passage B criticizes on both practical and normative grounds while proposing an alternative.
    • Passage B endorses the same remedy as Passage A but recommends a higher tax rate.
    • Passage B provides empirical evidence confirming the mechanism described in Passage A.
    • Passage A and Passage B independently defend the same rights-based remedy.
    • Passage A responds directly to arguments first raised in Passage B.
    Check your answer with the AI tutor →
  2. Question 2 · medium · Point Of Disagreement

    The two passages differ most fundamentally over which one of the following?

    • Whether firms respond at all to the price of their inputs
    • Whether pollution imposes costs on downstream users who have not consented to bear them
    • Whether a regulator can accurately measure the marginal damage caused by emissions
    • Whether the state should attempt to eliminate polluting activity outright
    • Whether bargaining among affected parties is ever possible
    Check your answer with the AI tutor →
  3. Question 3 · medium · Main Point Single Passage

    Which one of the following most accurately expresses the main point of Passage B?

    • Pollution should be eliminated entirely rather than priced, since any level of harm is unacceptable.
    • Bargaining between polluters and victims always produces the socially optimal level of pollution.
    • Corrective taxes are theoretically incoherent because externalities cannot be defined.
    • The chief flaw in pollution taxes is that firms will relocate to avoid paying them.
    • Because regulators cannot reliably measure marginal damage and monetary valuation may not reflect victims' preferences, assigning enforceable rights to the injured is preferable to a pollution tax.
    Check your answer with the AI tutor →
  4. Question 4 · medium · Detail Single Passage

    According to Passage A, a firm that continues to emit after paying the corrective tax

    • has failed to align its private cost with the true social cost
    • must have obtained the consent of downstream users
    • is, by hypothesis, generating value that exceeds the damage its emissions cause
    • is one whose activity the state intends to eliminate
    • is violating the terms of the tax and should be enjoined
    Check your answer with the AI tutor →
  5. Question 5 · medium · Function Single Passage

    The reference in Passage B to a 'poisoned well' functions primarily to

    • demonstrate that regulators can in fact measure damage in simple cases
    • concede that pollution taxes work well for water pollution but not air pollution
    • show that bargaining is preferable to litigation in all disputes
    • illustrate that some victims would refuse any monetary payment, supporting the claim that a tax wrongly treats victims as interchangeable
    • provide a numerical estimate of the marginal damage caused by a typical emission

THE FACTS BEHIND THE TEST

Official details, clearly explained.

The LSAT is LSAC's admission test for law schools in the United States, Canada and some other countries, scored 120–180 and offered several times a year. This page covers the LSAT, not LSAT—India, which is a separate Pearson VUE-delivered test for Indian law colleges with its own dates and scoring.

LSAT: common questions

What is the LSAT format in 2026?

Four 35-minute multiple-choice sections: two scored Logical Reasoning, one scored Reading Comprehension and one unscored section that can be either type in any position, with a 10-minute break after section two. Logic Games are gone. A separate 50-minute Argumentative Writing sample is unscored but required before your score is released.

When are the next LSAT dates?

LSAC lists 9 to 12 September 2026, 7 to 10 October, 11 to 14 November, then 13 to 16 January 2027, 12 to 13 February, 8 to 10 April and 9 to 12 June 2027. Registration closes roughly six weeks before each window and scores release about three weeks after it, for example 28 October for the October test.

Is the LSAT still offered remotely?

Mostly not. LSAC says it is moving toward in-centre testing for almost all test takers, with very limited exceptions such as approved accommodations or living more than 180 miles from a Prometric centre. Plan for a test-centre day, with ID, arrival time and centre rules replacing the old home-proctoring checklist.

How much does the LSAT cost?

Registration for the September 2026 LSAT is US$253. The optional Score Preview, which lets you see your score before deciding whether to keep it, costs US$46 if bought early or US$87 later. Credential Assembly Service and score reports are billed separately by LSAC.

Is LSAT Writing scored, and when do I do it?

It is unscored, but LSAC will not release your score to you or to law schools until a completed writing sample is on file. You can take it online from eight days before your multiple-choice test and have up to one year to complete it, with 15 minutes of prewriting analysis and 35 minutes of writing for most candidates.

How many times can I take the LSAT?

Five times within the current reportable score period and seven times in a lifetime, and anyone who has scored 180 may not retake. Every administration you sit counts, so use full-length practice tests to judge readiness rather than treating a real date as a trial run.

Is there a free full-length LSAT practice test on Myndaq?

Yes, one attempt per account and no card: 102 original questions written to the current two-LR, one-RC format in four 35-minute sections on a real clock, with an AI tutor explanation for every item. It does not include the writing sample and reports raw and per-section marks, not a 120 to 180 estimate. LSAC's LawHub also offers official free PrepTests. See free mock tests →

What does the Myndaq LSAT course include?

Practice across Logical Reasoning, Reading Comprehension, Argumentative Writing with an AI tutor that explains every answer, plus progress analytics.
