What you'll learn

Data beats intuition. Tracking accuracy, time, and confidence reveals blind spots that subjective self-assessment always misses.
Classification is the gateway to mastery. Naming the reasoning task before solving is a metacognitive skill that speeds learning.
Prioritization multiplies effort. Drilling your highest-error categories beats reviewing everything equally for score improvement.
A personal weakness map is a professional asset. Logging metrics and converting them into a plan mirrors data-driven workflows.

This Short Course was created to help Critical Thinking professionals accomplish a data-driven LR self-diagnosis. By completing this course, you'll be able to walk into your next practice session with a clear, prioritized plan built from your own performance data.

By the end of this course, you will be able to: Classify each LSAT Logical Reasoning item into its predefined question family using stimulus and stem cues Log accuracy, elapsed time, and confidence for every diagnostic question in the prescribed weakness-map format Evaluate logged performance metrics to prioritize the top three LR question families for a two-week drill plan This course is unique because it transforms raw practice data into a structured, personalized weakness map — turning guesswork into a targeted study strategy. To be successful in this course, you should have a background in basic reading comprehension and familiarity with spreadsheet tools.
