Score improvement depends on your starting point and how much you engage with the material. Most students see meaningful gains when they commit to consistent practice—typically 5-10 points or more over 10 weeks, though some students improve significantly more. The key is identifying your weak areas early (often Logic Games or Reading Comprehension) and dedicating focused time to those sections. Your tutor will help you set realistic goals based on your baseline score and target law school profile.

Logic Games (Analytical Reasoning) trip up many test-takers because they require a completely different skill set than the other sections—diagramming, spatial reasoning, and rapid pattern recognition. A 10-week prep class breaks down game types systematically, teaches you proven diagramming methods, and gives you hundreds of practice problems to build speed and confidence. Most students find that with structured instruction and consistent practice, Logic Games go from their weakest section to a source of points.

The LSAT gives you about 8.75 minutes per question, but effective pacing means knowing which questions to tackle first and which to skip strategically. A 10-week prep class teaches you to identify easier vs. harder questions within each section, practice timed drills to build speed without sacrificing accuracy, and develop a personalized pacing strategy. You'll take full-length timed practice tests regularly so pacing becomes automatic by test day.

LSAT Reading Comprehension requires active reading—understanding the author's main point, structure, and tone rather than memorizing details. Effective strategies include annotating as you read, identifying the passage's argument and supporting evidence, and understanding question types (main point, inference, detail, etc.) before diving into answers. A 10-week prep class teaches these strategies through practice with real LSAT passages, helping you read more efficiently and answer questions with greater accuracy.

Most students benefit from taking 8-12 full-length practice tests over a 10-week period—roughly one per week, with additional time for review and targeted drilling. Practice tests serve two purposes: they simulate test-day conditions and reveal your weak areas so you can focus your studying effectively. Your tutor will help you schedule practice tests strategically, review your performance in detail, and adjust your study plan based on patterns in your mistakes.

Test anxiety often stems from unfamiliarity with the test format and uncertainty about your abilities. A 10-week prep class reduces anxiety by building mastery—the more you practice under timed conditions, the more confident you become. Your tutor can also teach you test-day strategies like managing your mental state during the exam, pacing yourself to avoid panic, and developing a pre-test routine. Regular practice tests help normalize the testing experience so exam day feels like just another practice run.
