Once
you find out more about us, you will like what we offer.
"What
results/improvements do Get Prepped students see?"
You can expect good results. In fact, we offer the most comprehensive higher-score or your money back guarantee of any company.
A 5-10 point improvement is typical for our 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 complex information;
night classes are basically a waste of your time.
"Is
36 hours enough class time to learn what I need?" Definitely.
For many years, a 30-40 hour class schedule was standard. More recently, some prep companies have inflated their class hours, offering
60, 80, and even 100-hour classes! This was purely
for marketing reasons; the LSAT has not changed and
LSAT takers are just as smart as they were before. The
extra hours are simply 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 large corporate prep courses.
- 1 weekend
class- Our weekend class is less than one-third the price
the "nationals" charge for their classes. Get Prepped 1 weekend classes are structured
so that you do all 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.
- 2 & 3 weekend
class- Our multi-weekend class is markedly superior to the
classes offered by the large companies. Our small classes
(12 or fewer students) are more affordable, 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 reasons people have never heard of us. First, to keep tuition affordable,
we spend less on advertising than 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 campuses nationwide. 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.
