Who Should Attend and Why

Prospective law school applicants take the LSAT. Admission panels use LSAT scores to supplement undergraduate records and other qualifications for graduate study. The scores provide common measures for comparing qualifications of applicants and aid in evaluating grades and recommendations. Most law schools will evaluate your LSAT score as one factor used to determine your qualification for admission.

Most law schools require that the LSAT be taken by December for admission the following fall. However, many law schools advise potential applicants to take the test earlier – either in June or October.

Overview

The LSAT Test Prep Course provides 30 instructional hours, covering critical reasoning, reading comprehension, analytical reasoning, LSAT writing sample, and a comprehensive review of the logic concepts tested on the LSAT. Students will be given the opportunity to practice test taking by using actual LSAT questions from former tests.

The review course includes homework activities designed to give the course students opportunities to supplement their in-class instruction.

Review Course Fees
