LSAT: Law School Admissions Test Prep

Increase Your LSAT Score

 

The Law School Admission Test, better known as the LSAT, is a critical part of the Law School admission process. The LSAT test is a multiple-choice, computer-based exam that is required for most Juris doctorate (JD) programs at law schools accredited by the American Bar Association (ABA). This test provides law school admission committees with a common measure of a student’s readiness for graduate-level academic work. Law school admission committees look at student LSAT scores, in addition to undergraduate grade point averages, personal statements, letters of recommendation, resumes, and other aspects of an application to assess a student’s ability to perform once in law school.

What You Will Learn

This course will prepare students for logical reasoning, analytical reasoning, and reading comprehension–the three pillars of the LSAT. We divide the LSAT into its various topics and teach one topic in each class. This class follows a flipped classroom model whereby students first review a video lesson and attempt easier examples before coming to class to learn how to apply the principles of each topic in a variety of contexts.

  Tyrrell, Patrick

  Patrick has been teaching LSAT for about 13 years now. When he moved from Washington, DC to Los Angeles in 2006, he got a part-time job as an SAT / ACT teacher. Once bitten by the teaching bug, he longed to teach grown-ups, as opposed to high school students, so he started teaching LSAT, GMAT, and GRE.  LSAT is by far his favorite test since it's more challenging to teach than the more straightforward math/grammar/vocab content of the other tests. Also, he respects the LSAT as an actual way to improve critical reading and thinking skills that could benefit law school students, lawyers, and the public at large. The very first time Patrick looked at and took an LSAT, he got a 172, so his habit of thinking very literally and logically, for which he is frequently mocked by his fa...Read More
