🐝 7 Traps That Keep You +Stuck Under 165

+

A free guide from The Burton Method

+
+

You’ve been studying for weeks. You’re putting in the hours. But your +score won’t budge.

+

Sound familiar?

+

Here’s the truth: getting past 165 isn’t about studying +more. It’s about studying smarter — and avoiding the traps that +keep most students plateaued.

+

We’ve coached hundreds of LSAT students, and we see the same mistakes +over and over. This guide breaks down the 7 most common traps — and +exactly how to escape them.

+
+

🪤 Trap #1: Studying +Without a Diagnostic

+

The Mistake: Jumping straight into practice tests +without knowing your actual weaknesses.

+

Why It Hurts: You waste hours drilling question +types you’re already decent at — while your real problem areas stay +hidden.

+

The Fix: ✅ Take a full, timed diagnostic FIRST ✅ +Break down your results by question type ✅ Build your study plan around +your weakest 2-3 areas

+

Burton Tip: If you’re scoring -6 on Weaken questions but -2 on +Flaw questions, guess where your time should go?

+
+

🪤 Trap #2: Speed Over +Understanding

+

The Mistake: Racing through questions to “build +speed” before mastering the fundamentals.

+

Why It Hurts: You’re training yourself to guess +faster — not think better. Speed comes from pattern recognition, and +pattern recognition comes from deep understanding.

+

The Fix: ✅ Slow down during the learning phase ✅ +Spend 5+ minutes on hard questions — understand WHY each answer is right +or wrong ✅ Speed up naturally once concepts click

+

Burton Tip: “Just because you can finish in 35 minutes… doesn’t +mean you should.” – Classic LSAT logic.

+
+

🪤 Trap #3: Ignoring Wrong +Answers

+

The Mistake: Checking if you got it right, then +moving on.

+

Why It Hurts: The WRONG answers teach you more than +the right ones. Every wrong answer is designed to trap you — +understanding the trap is how you avoid it next time.

+

The Fix: ✅ For every question you miss, write down +WHY each wrong answer is wrong ✅ Identify the trap type (too extreme? +reverses the logic? out of scope?) ✅ Look for patterns in what tricks +you

+

Burton Tip: We call this “Trap Journaling” — it’s boring but it +works.

+
+

🪤 Trap #4: The Plateau Panic

+

The Mistake: Freaking out when your score stops +improving for a few weeks.

+

Why It Hurts: Plateaus are normal. They’re a sign +your brain is consolidating. Panicking leads to strategy-hopping, which +destroys momentum.

+

The Fix: ✅ Expect 2-4 week plateaus — they’re part +of the process ✅ During plateaus, focus on one specific weakness ✅ +Trust the reps

+

Burton Tip: Every 170+ scorer we know hit at least one major +plateau. They pushed through. You will too.

+
+

🪤 Trap #5: Skipping the +Stimulus Breakdown

+

The Mistake: Reading the passage once and jumping to +answers.

+

Why It Hurts: The stimulus IS the game. If you don’t +know the conclusion, the premises, and the assumption — you’re just +guessing with confidence.

+

The Fix: ✅ Before looking at answers, identify: - +What’s the conclusion? - What’s the support? - What’s the gap? ✅ The +answer should match your prediction

+

Burton Tip: Use the “Just because… doesn’t mean…” test. Every +time.

+
+

🪤 Trap #6: Practice Test +Addiction

+

The Mistake: Taking 3-4 full practice tests a week +without proper review.

+

Why It Hurts: Practice tests are for ASSESSMENT, not +learning. If you’re not spending 2-3x longer reviewing than taking, +you’re wasting tests.

+

The Fix: ✅ Max 1-2 full timed tests per week ✅ +Spend the rest of your time on targeted drills ✅ Review every single +question — right and wrong

+

Burton Tip: You only have ~90 official LSATs. Don’t burn through +them.

+
+

🪤 Trap #7: Going It Alone

+

The Mistake: Refusing to get help because “I should +be able to figure this out myself.”

+

Why It Hurts: The LSAT is a learnable test — but +that doesn’t mean it’s easy to learn alone. Expert guidance compresses +months of trial-and-error into weeks.

+

The Fix: ✅ Find a study group, tutor, or structured +course ✅ Learn from people who’ve already cracked it ✅ Invest in +yourself — law school ROI is massive

+

Burton Tip: We’ve seen students jump 10+ points just by having +someone explain ONE concept differently. Don’t be stubborn.

+
+

🎯 Ready to Break Through?

+

These 7 traps keep most students stuck in the 155-163 range +forever.

+

Now you know what to avoid.

+

Next step: Start studying smarter with The Burton +Method.

🐝 LSAT Logical Reasoning +Cheat Sheet

+

The Burton Method Quick Reference

+
+

📦 Every LR Question Has Two +Parts

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
PartWhat It IsYour Job
StimulusThe short paragraphFind the conclusion + premises
Question StemThe actual taskKnow what they’re asking
+
+

🎯 Question Type Quick Guide

+

MUST-KNOW QUESTION TYPES

+ +++++ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
TypeWhat They AskYour Move
Main Conclusion“What’s the main point?”Find the claim everything supports
Weaken“What hurts this argument?”Attack the assumption
Strengthen“What helps this argument?”Support the assumption
Flaw“What’s wrong with this logic?”Name the reasoning error
Assumption“What must be true for this to work?”Find the hidden link
Inference“What must be true based on this?”Stay close to the text
Parallel“Which argument uses similar logic?”Match the structure
+
+

🧠 The “Just Because… Doesn’t +Mean…” Test

+

Use this for EVERY argument:

+
+

“Just because [PREMISE]… doesn’t mean [CONCLUSION].”

+
+

If that sounds like a fair criticism → you’ve found the +assumption.

+

Example: - Premise: “Coffee drinkers perform better +on tests” - Conclusion: “Law students should drink more coffee” - Test: +“Just because coffee helps test performance… doesn’t mean it’ll help law +students specifically.”

+
+

🔍 Conclusion Indicator Words

+

These usually signal the main point:

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
WordExample
Therefore“Therefore, we should invest.”
Thus“Thus, the plan will fail.”
So“So it follows that…”
Hence“Hence the conclusion.”
Consequently“Consequently, action is needed.”
It follows that“It follows that X is true.”
+
+

🔍 Premise Indicator Words

+

These usually signal support:

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
WordExample
Because“Because sales dropped…”
Since“Since the data shows…”
Given that“Given that X occurred…”
For“For the study revealed…”
Due to“Due to budget cuts…”
As“As the evidence indicates…”
+
+

⚠️ Common Flaw Types

+ ++++ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
FlawPlain English
Causation ≠ Correlation“They happened together, so one caused the other” (nope)
Overgeneralization“It worked once, so it always will” (nope)
Necessary vs Sufficient“It’s required, so it’s enough” (nope)
Ad Hominem“You’re wrong because you’re biased” (attacks person, not +argument)
Circular Reasoning“It’s true because it’s true” (no real support)
Sampling Error“This small group did X, so everyone does” (unrepresentative)
Equivocation“This word means one thing here, another there” (slippery +terms)
+
+

⏱️ Timing Strategy

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
PhaseTimeGoal
Questions 1-10~12 minBank time (these are easier)
Questions 11-20~15 minStay steady
Questions 21-26~8 minDon’t panic, make educated guesses
+

Rule: Never spend more than 2 minutes on one +question. Flag and move.

+
+

🎯 Burton Power Moves

+

For Weaken Questions:

+
    +
  1. Find the conclusion
    2. +
  2. Identify the assumption
    3. +
  3. Predict: “What could make this less likely?”
    4. +
  4. Match your prediction
    5. +
+

For Strengthen Questions:

+
    +
  1. Find the conclusion
    2. +
  2. Identify the assumption
    3. +
  3. Predict: “What could make this MORE likely?”
    4. +
  4. Match your prediction
    5. +
+

For Flaw Questions:

+
    +
  1. Find the conclusion
    2. +
  2. Spot the logical leap
    3. +
  3. Name it in plain English
    4. +
  4. Match your description (even if wording is abstract)
    5. +
+

For Inference Questions:

+
    +
  1. NO conclusion to find — just facts
    2. +
  2. Stay CLOSE to the text
    3. +
  3. Avoid extreme answers (“always”, “never”, “all”)
    4. +
  4. The right answer MUST be true
    5. +
+
+

🚫 Wrong Answer Traps

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
TrapWhat It Looks Like
Too Extreme“All,” “never,” “always,” “impossible”
Out of ScopeIntroduces new concepts not in stimulus
Reverses LogicGets the direction backwards
IrrelevantTrue statement, but doesn’t answer the question
Half RightStarts good, ends bad
+
+

💡 When You’re Stuck

+
    +
  1. Re-read the question stem — make sure you know the TASK
    2. +
  2. Re-identify the conclusion — are you sure?
    3. +
  3. Eliminate obviously wrong answers
    4. +
