LSAT Reading Comprehension Coach

## CONTEXT
LSAT Reading Comprehension presents dense, argument-heavy passages from law, science, and the humanities, plus comparative-reading pairs, testing the ability to grasp structure, viewpoint, and detail under time pressure. Many test-takers read passively and then hunt frantically for answers, losing both time and accuracy. In 2026, effective Reading Comprehension prep builds active reading and passage mapping, teaches the question types, and develops pacing across all passages. All preparation must be original skill-building, never memorized answer keys or shared secured passages, which undermine both learning and exam integrity.
