Who it's for

This course is for

  • Law school applicants taking the on-demand LSAT Writing sample at home

  • Applicants who lose 10 to 15 WPM in the final block of a long essay
  • Anyone who wants the framing paragraph to come out in under two minutes

Probably not for

  • Candidates already comfortable drafting 500 words of argument in under 15 minutes
  • Anyone expecting LSAT Writing scoring advice or model essays — this is typing practice only
  • Test-takers who have not yet learned touch typing

How the course works

  1. 1

    Diagnose

    Start with the free preview lessons. Your per-key and per-word stats show exactly which words, transitions, and symbols are slowing you down under the clock.

  2. 2

    Drill

    Work through vocabulary, phrase, and paragraph lessons in order. Each one is short, replayable, and saves your best speed and accuracy so you can see the trend.

  3. 3

    Simulate

    Finish with full-length timed simulations that mirror the real format, so the pace of the actual test feels familiar rather than frightening.

Why typing speed matters for LSAT Writing

The framing paragraph is written under the highest cognitive load of the whole 35 minutes, and that is exactly where typing friction hurts most.

A strong sample lands between 450 and 650 words. Hitting 550 while also planning and editing takes a sustained 35 to 45 WPM — not glamorous, but the honest floor.

Running framing, support, and counter drills in sequence reveals fatigue patterns before test day. Most candidates are fine in blocks one and two and lose speed in block three.

Frequently asked questions

How fast do I need to type for the LSAT Writing sample?

A sustained 35 to 45 WPM on unseen prose with 95% accuracy is the realistic target for a 550-word essay with time to plan and review. Many applicants are faster on familiar text but collapse on the prompt's vocabulary — that gap is what this course closes.

Is this the official the LSAT Writing sample?

No. This is independent typing practice built around the format and time pressure of the LSAT Writing sample. LSAT is a trademark of its respective owner, and SureTyping is not affiliated with or endorsed by it. Every prompt and response is original practice material, not recycled sample answers.

How long before my LSAT Writing should I start?

Two to four weeks of short daily sessions, ending with at least one full-length timed run. On the day, read the scenario twice, spend about three minutes planning, 25 to 27 writing, and four to five reviewing.

Does this help with the multiple-choice LSAT sections?

No. This course covers only the typed writing sample. It does not teach logical reasoning or reading comprehension.

Does my progress save?

Yes. Lesson completions, speed and accuracy history, and your all-time best records are stored on your account, so you can pick up on any device where you left off.

Is the LSAT Writing course a one-time purchase?

Yes. You pay once and keep lifetime access. There is no recurring charge and nothing to cancel — the course stays in your library for as long as SureTyping exists.

Beginner courses are free for every keyboard layout. Start with the free lessons or get All-Access for $79.
