In our continuing effort to recognize some of the most notable legal blogs on the web, we bring you this week’s Featured Blog.  This week we will highlight Steve Schwartz’s LSAT Blog. Every prospective law student knows the importance of the LSAT.   And every attorney remembers the significance of the LSAT.  This blog provides tips on the LSAT and law school admissions.

Schwartz, a private LSAT tutor in Manhattan, started his LSAT blog because he feels that “people shouldn't feel the need to spend $1500 to do well on the LSAT and get into law school.”  I would have to agree with him.  LSAT Courses are increasingly expensive.  With the competitiveness one faces when applying to law school, they are also deemed necessary in order to succeed.  This blog demonstrates a few ways around taking an expensive course.

The blog, which began six months ago, offers new tips every Friday.  Schwartz also updates his Twitter page daily.  The tips range from study techniques to advice on specific sections of the exam.  A useful post I found was Best LSAT Prep Books, which lists different LSAT books one may use as well as introductory books on Logic.  There is also a “Better Know a Law School” series where admissions officials from law schools answer questions that help perspective students understand the school a little better.  This offers valuable insight on other aspects of admissions because normally the only information available is the numbers.
