Quality LSAT prep doesn't have to cost thousands. Here are the best free resources available and how to use them strategically.
The LSAT prep industry wants you to believe you need to spend $2,000+ to score well. That's not true. While paid courses can be valuable, there are excellent free resources that can form the backbone of your preparation.
The Best Free LSAT Resources
Khan Academy Official LSAT Prep
Khan Academy partnered with LSAC (the organization that makes the LSAT) to create free, official LSAT prep. This includes diagnostic assessments, practice questions, and personalized recommendations.

When Free Isn't Enough
Free resources have limitations: no adaptive technology, no live instruction, and no personalized study plans. If you're stuck below your target score after 6–8 weeks of self-study, a structured course may be worth the investment. The most affordable quality option is 7Sage [blocked] at $69/month.
