Questions about the LSAT

Get to know us!

"What results/improvements do Get Prepped students see?" You can expect good results. Our experience is that when our weekend students take a real LSAT diagnostic on the Saturday morning of the class, they average about 50% correct. On Sunday afternoon, when they take the wrap-up diagnostic, they have increased that score several percentage points, even before doing any outside practice. Many of our tutoring students score in the 150-155 range before starting the tutoring, and score in the 160-170 range by the end. A 7-10 point improvement is normal for both tutoring students and multi-weekend students.

"What is the latest date I can sign up for a Get Prepped class / the LSAT?" Classes are limited to 12 students; signing up early reserves your place. Also, you should begin the pre-class preparation as early as possible. Registering 4-6 weeks before the class date is normally sufficient. Registrations in the final two weeks before a class pay a late registration fee. Plan to register for the LSAT at least one month prior to the test date.

"Do you offer evening classes?" or "Won't a full day of class be too long?" No and no. First, the LSAT is given during the day, not at night. To replicate the LSAT, we teach our classes during the day. Second, most students learn more in daytime classes. You can concentrate better in a class with two three-hour sessions (split by a lunch break) that ends at 5:00pm then you can during a four-hour class that begins at 6:00pm. By 7:00-8:00pm most students simply do not adequately absorb the highly-complex information; late evening classes are basically a waste of your time.

"Is 36 hours enough class time to learn what I need?" Definitely. Three years ago, a 30-40 hour class schedule was the standard. Since then, many prep companies have inflated their class hours, with 60, 80, and even 100-hour classes becoming common. This was purely for marketing reasons, because the LSAT has not changed much, and LSAT takers are just as smart as they were then. Simply put, the extra hours are unnecessary. Worse, spending so much time in class means less time to take vital practice tests. Although a tiny incremental benefit might come from attending dozens of extra hours of class, we have found that after 30-40 hours of classroom time, the point of diminishing returns has been reached.

"How does Get Prepped compare to other LSAT prep courses?"

  • Compared to the "national" prep courses.
  • Weekend class- Our weekend class is less than one-third the price the "nationals" charge for their classes. Admittedly, the weekend class meets for fewer hours, but the other companies administer two to four 3-hour tests during class time yet count those hours as class time. Get Prepped weekend classes are structured so that you do much of your practice on your own time and don't pay us to watch you. Also, since our classes are guaranteed to be smaller, you get more attention in fewer class hours. Also, very importantly, we exclusively use authentic licensed LSAT questions.
  • Multi-weekend class- Our multi-weekend class is markedly superior to the classes offered by the "nationals." Our small classes (12 or fewer students) are considerably less expensive, yet offer a similar number of instructional hours. Our teachers have scored higher on the test and have more experience teaching LSAT classes. Our multi-weekend classes are compactly scheduled, so you start classes just three to four weeks before the LSAT. Our weekend daytime schedule allows you to study at the optimal time, instead of late at night, after a long day of work.
  • One on One tutoring- They can't beat our value. Other companies offer 15 hour tutorials that can cost almost twice as much. Their tutoring programs simply can't compare.
  • Compared to a commercial weekend course: Get Prepped uses actual LSAT questions from previous LSATs; some companies use simulated questions. Our students are given a free self-study course to use before and after class. Finally, we offer the most comprehensive guarantee in the LSAT prep industry. This shows how confident we are that our customers will be satisfied.
  • Compared to a campus-sponsored course: Campus courses vary greatly in quality, time, cost, ability of instructor, and materials, so it is difficult to generalize. To our knowledge, none of these courses offers a money-back guarantee, or the wide range of course options or preparatory material.

"What kind of preparation should I do?" The more the better. If you learn the fundamentals before you come to class then your class time is spent getting an even better score. The best preparation is to use the guided self-study course (free with your enrollment). Also, many students buy one or more commercial LSAT guides. Read the explanations sections of those books, but spend most of your time taking the practice tests. Doing this will help you determine the areas you need the most work.

"I have never heard of Get Prepped, are you new?" No, we are not new. We have been teaching the LSAT since 1999. There are two common reasons people have never heard of us. First, to keep tuition affordable, we spend less on advertising then other prep companies. Second, we exclusively teach the LSAT, unlike other prep companies. So you would not hear about Get Prepped until you began researching LSAT prep options. These are our strengths, and these are the reasons we have helped thousands of students successfully prepare for the LSAT since 1999.

"How much experience do Get Prepped and its teachers have?" The Get Prepped staff has written LSAT textbooks that are used in courses taught on hundreds of campuses. We have also written publicly-available self-study books. Many of our instructors have taught at other LSAT prep companies. All of our staff are law students or law graduates, and many are practicing attorneys. (At other prep courses, your instructor may not have taken a real LSAT, much less be a lawyer.) All of our instructors have scored above the 94th percentile, and most have scored in the 97th percentile or higher. But a high score is not enough. We hire skilled teachers and communicators. It is better to have an excellent teacher who scored in the 95th percentile than a weak teacher who scored in the 99th percentile.
