RC Pacing in Section Context: Allocating 35 Minutes Across Four Passages

RC Pacing in Section Context

Day 97 built the ~8:45 budget. Today drills it under full section pressure, with the passage-order strategy applied live.

Running the Full Section on the Clock

Skim all four passage sets briefly (30-45 seconds) before committing to an order. Apply the four-step method at full speed on each. Track time explicitly at each passage transition — if you're meaningfully behind budget after passage 2, consciously tighten pace on the remaining two rather than discovering the shortfall only at the end.

Practice items on this page are curriculum-authored in LSAT style; they are not official LSAC questions. Real drilling happens on LawHub — see the assignment below.

Q1. You're 4 minutes behind your budget after two passages. What's the right adjustment?

A. Panic and guess on everything remaining

B. Consciously tighten pace on the remaining two passages — spend less time mapping, rely more on the question-driven re-read

C. Ignore it and hope it works out

D. Stop the section entirely

Correct answer: B. A mid-section awareness check with a deliberate pace adjustment is exactly the skill this drill builds — catching a shortfall early is far better than discovering it in the last two minutes.

One full drill-tier RC section, timed, with explicit time checks logged at each passage transition.

Saturday: your first timed section pair (one LR, one RC), same-day review.
