FAQ
Where are tests 39-59?
I haven’t written them yet. 39-61 is 23 sets of explanations. Each set is about 30,000 words, so the gap is 700,000 words.
In 2011, I wrote explanations for preptests 19-38. Then in 2012, I wrote explanations for preptest 68 onwards. In 2013 I extended this backwards to LSAT preptest 62.
So there’s currently a gap in explanations. I haven’t written anything for 39-61. I hope to do this eventually, starting with 52-61. But I have no timeline for this, as LSAT explanations take quite a while to write.
How often do you release new tests?
I usually release the new LSAT explanations about 1-2 weeks after the test comes out. Older tests don’t follow a set pattern – explanations take a while to write.
What are you working on right now?
I’ve been working on the LSAT mastery seminars.
Next, I’m going to go through tests 79 and 80 and record myself doing them timed without having seen them before. That’s why new explanations are on hold – I need to preserve the fresh material.
Once those videos are done, I’ll be making explantions for 78-80, and returning to a regular posting schedule.
After that, I should have time to proofread my past explanations for 19-28. It’s possible those will be up in 2017. However, I wouldn’t expect them anytime soon. If you really want a copy now, LSAT Blog or Cambridge LSAT has them on sale. I haven’t sold them on my site because I haven’t updated them to my current format and would rather do that first.
52-61 are next on the list after 19-28, but I wouldn’t expect those in 2017 – explanations take a while!

Thank you!

Hi. I had a question. Any update on when 19-28 explanations will be out?
Thanks :)
Jessica says
Will you have the explanations for 74 soon?
MemberSabrina (LSAT Hacks) says
Hi Jessica – Yes, explanations for PT 74 will be up soon. Graeme started working on them the moment the December LSAT was officially released!
TheHatchling says
Hi Graeme, great job! I hope you don’t mind, but I featured you on the site @thehatchling.net
FounderGraeme Blake says
Awesome, thanks! Do you run that site?
BORIS RAYTSIN says
Hi. I had a question, the 29-38 explanations will be up by end of November right?
Thanks!!!
MemberSabrina (LSAT Hacks) says
Hi Boris,
The explanations for Prep Tests 29-38 are almost ready – they should be up within the next couple of weeks!

Hi! Any update on when 29-38 will be up?
Also, thanks so much for working to make this type of crucial information accessible across class lines!
FounderGraeme Blake says
They’re up now. Glad you like them :)
Carol says
Hi Graeme,
Are you planning to put up any more explanations before the December 2014 lsat?
MemberSabrina (LSAT Hacks) says
Hi Carol,
Graeme is currently working on explanations for the rest of the PTs, but they won’t all be up before the December 2014 LSAT (as you can see in the comments above,19-38 are almost ready).
Olena Vus says
Thank you for uploading these! I have also bought your books, and already see the progress. I was also wondering how long you were planning on keeping these explanations online for. thanks.
FounderGraeme Blake says
Forever. They’ll always be free. I’m planning to put more up soon too.
Anjalee says
You are an excellent human being. Thanks for the prose and guaranteed freedom.
Frazer Sloan says
Hello,
Just out of curiousity, how ofter do you add a new prep test explanation to this page? Im sure its quite an undertaking, but are you going to continue to move backwards?
Thanks,
FounderGraeme Blake says
It varies. I’ve written 19-38. But I’m proofreading 19-28 right now, and am in the process of posting 29-38. Those should all hopefully be up before December.
After that I’ll write new ones, which takes a while.

You are the best.
Brian Thomas Eddy says
I am new to this. I bought LSAT prep material that included all the old LSAT exams. But there are no answer explanations…just the answer key with correct letter answer. Then I found this site, and I think “great”. Currently I am working on LSAT 7. Do you have explanations for the early exams like 7?
FounderGraeme Blake says
Yes, I have explanations for 8 early exams. They’re currently available through the LSATHacks Mastery Bundle.
Note: This is an old comment but I wanted to clarify the point.
