Today on the show, Ben and Nathan discuss the four phases of learning and why LSAT students should strive to achieve “unconscious competence” in the material. They also break down when and how many times applicants should plan to take the official LSAT and advise a listener who is debating whether to join the Fulbright program before law school. They wrap up with a snowboarding analogy and advice to a student who scores perfectly on Logical Reasoning but struggles with Reading Comprehension.

0:43.0 | Good luck if you're already registered for that test. |
0:46.0 | Remember if your practice tests are 10 points away from your goal, |

1:18.0 | We've got March, April, June, and a couple more tests after the cycle resets in August. |
1:26.3 | So, you know, at this time of year, there's no ever any real credible reason for people |
