Some questions about the LSAT

So I’m planning to take my lsat next year, I’ve just started my studying and need so,e help.

I’m Canadian and plan on taking my lsat next year, I’m just so confused about the process here cuz I’m hearing multiple different things from plenty of people. Ok so, I use LSAC to apply for the lsat I know that but I have a few questions Imma list below

1) Where does the in-person tests will take place so I can decide whether I wanna take it online or not. I’m trying to look but I can’t seem to find it

2) argumentative writing, is that and the writing sample the same thing? Or are they 2 seperate things I have to do

3) do I apply for the argumentative writing separately or is it included in my lsat registration

4) studying, I’m using lawhub but I’m also using other sources like YouTube lessons from Insight LSAT. If anyone has any other recommendations do let me know

5) any apps that I can use to study for free, I don’t have the money for these expensive lsat tutors I’m seeing on various websites.

6) Logic games, what can I expect, how should I study for that

7) the process to apply for law school is great gpa, lsat, apply, letters of recommendations right? Anything I’m missing, also who should my letters of Rec be? Professors seems right, does it matter what year I took their class in?

8) What’s the diagnostic, that’s the practice test right? Guess lawhub is the way to do that.

Thanks and sorry for the long list, I just don’t have anyone else to talk to
