Writing Sample Summary
Yes, it’s true that no one’s primary LSAT concern is the Writing Sample, and
no LSAT instructor worth his salt would advise spending anywhere near the amount of
prep time on this section as on the scored multiple-choice sections. Still,
admission to law school remains incredibly competitive, and you need to make the
most of every opportunity to set your candidacy apart. LSAC practice PrepTests
contain sample essay prompts, so complete as many practice essays as necessary to
make sure you’re comfortable with this section of the test. Then, when test day
rolls around, the Writing Sample at the end won’t distract you from acing what comes
before, and it might very well provide the icing on your application
cake.
