LSAT Preparation: Getting Your Best LSAT Score

Getting your best LSAT score is the single most important factor in determining law school options and opportunities, merit-based financial grants (reducing your student debt load) and, as a result, your post-law school career options and long-term earnings potential. With 100,000 - 150,000 people taking the LSAT every year, obtaining your best score — not just an average LSAT score or good LSAT score — is vital, and it's possible only with the best LSAT prep course available.

The Advise-In Solutions Difference. Advise-In's LSAT preparation program is structured to put you in a position to get your highest LSAT score, so that you can leave the LSAT confident that you have done your best work and won't risk the disadvantages of taking the LSAT a second time.

How does Advise-In Solutions consistently obtain outstanding results?

• Highest-quality Instruction. Advise-In Solutions’ combination of LSAT expertise, teaching excellence and personal service is unmatched.

• Only Individual Attention: It's Just You. Education professionals know that personalized learning is the most effective; that is the only kind Advise-In Solutions offers. Maximum class size: one. No groups or generic advice, just LSAT solutions tailored specifically for you. Kyle Pasewark limits the number of LSAT clients to assure each the personal attention needed to obtain his or her highest LSAT score.
• Systematic, Custom Designed Program. One-of-a-kind 10-week custom program designed so that you can be at your best on exam day.
  • Our 10-week LSAT program is, we believe, the optimum length. Much longer, and you are likely to be past your peak; less, and you are unlikely to have reached your potential.
  • Specific, systematic methods for analyzing and answering every LSAT question type.
  • Specialized LSAT study techniques for building and dissecting arguments on the LSAT writing sample.
  • Regular assignments and personal review and discussion of each assignment with you, reinforcing and customizing straightforward and simple LSAT methods and strategies for your needs. In person, by phone or by webinar, depending on your location and schedule.
  • Real-time adjustments based on your personal learning style, progress, trends, strengths and weaknesses.
  • Techniques for exam management (including managing exam day).
    • Understanding is only half the battle. Technique and timing are crucial to LSAT success.
    • Only personal instruction can best refine your technique, develop your ability to focus for a long exam day, overcome its inevitable distractions and help you avoid silly mistakes.
  • Strategies for those who think they “just don’t do well on standardized tests,” “can’t finish on time,” “get nervous,” “panic,” “just can’t get this type of question” or have other common problems.

Why Your Best LSAT Score Matters

• A higher LSAT score dramatically improves your chances of admission. For the LSAT’s effect on admissions, try plugging in a few sample LSAT scores on LSAC's website. Some elite schools, including Yale, Stanford, Columbia, Berkeley (Boalt), Chicago, Cornell and Georgetown do not include data.
• Even small improvements can have a significant impact. At more difficult-to-achieve scores, seemingly small changes in your LSAT raw score make crucial differences in grant and admission opportunities.
  • Many law schools offer dedicated grants (public service or other scholarships that depend on post-law school practice) for upper-echelon candidates.
  • For top candidates, many schools offer unrestricted “no strings attached” grants.

* All increases are measured as: actual LSAT score/percentile (not just a score obtained at the end of the program), measured against (a) an actual LSAT diagnostic (not a made-up "LSAT" designed to show maximum improvement), (b) an actual LSAT score/percentile (for those who had previously taken the exam prior to engaging Advise-In) or (c) the score (and equivalent LSAT percentile) obtained in another company's prep program (for those who took such programs).

Percentile changes are rounded to the nearest whole percentile. For example, an increase from the 60.2 percentile of all LSAT takers to the 90.6 percentile would be a 30-percentile increase. For every 100,000 LSAT takers, this hypothetical LSAT taker would have jumped over 30,400 takers, or after rounding, 30,000.
