I never thought I'd become a professional LSAT coach.
In fact, I saw the LSAT as a major roadblock standing in the way of my dream: to get into law school and become a successful attorney.
I wasn’t going to let some test stand in my way, so I set aside a few months. I studied every LSAT book I could find and every LSAT question ever released.
My scores gradually increased from the low 150s to the high 160s, but I didn't stop there. I kept studying until I felt confident about every question, eventually reaching the high 170s and scoring 175 on test day.
I started coaching the LSAT but wanted to do even more, so I created this channel to demystify the test for future lawyers everywhere.
I haven't looked back since.
Over more than a decade, I've helped thousands of students get into the law schools of their dreams, win large scholarships, and become successful attorneys.
Personally, I fought tooth and nail for 1.5x on my test, despite receiving accommodations in high school, undergrad, and in the workplace. I had about 5-6 doctors describe my condition. Although I understand why some abled people may not like/agree with the changes to the LSAT, I do hope this is an opportunity for less gatekeeping for the blind and disabled. I can't wait to try for a better score!
Does the report sent to schools include this information if one gets additional time? The admission committee should be able to see this and evaluate accordingly.
I honestly believe that it will go down. I think test stamina will be hampered because of this change because a lot of students saw LG as a break from the intensive RC and LR sections. Imagine doing 2 RCs and 2 LRs or 3 LRs and 1 RC. I truly believe that this will be way more strenuous and performance on later sections during the exam will be hurt because of mental fatigue.
This was a terrible decision. Khan Academy was way more user friendly and free. I appreciated how they categorized all of the sections, which LSAC does not do. I also loved that you could copy and paste to take your own notes on Khan Academy and see if you got a question correctly as you go. This was a big hit against prospective students, maybe that was the intention.
I really love your channel. I’m a UK lawyer (but a non LLB holder) and I’m aiming to do a JD in the US starting in 2026. I watch your videos religiously. You give me so much hope I can get a high score on the LSAT and get into my dream school, Georgetown
You seem like a very nice and caring gentleman. Raising your LSAT score is extremely challenging. I would love to do an audit of your entire client population. I would like to see an actual previous LSAT score and then I would like to see the actual LSAT score after completing your preparation program. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and believe that you yourself had incredible improvement from one actual LSAT exam to a second actual LSAT exam. Nonetheless, if you want me to spend my hard earned money, then I need the actual audit of your entire client population. And according to LSAT logic, that means that the contra positive is true as well. Have a nice day and I sincerely wish you well my friend.
Thank you for the video. Have you heard anything from adcoms if there is any consideration on a gpa from 15-20 years ago, say a 3.4, compared to a 3.8 gpa from a new graduate? Is that 3.4 GPA from 20 years ago treated the exact same as a 3.8 from a recent grad? I know work experience helps and is something that law schools are valuing more now, would that move the needle in terms of admittance/scholarships like 1-5%, or is work experience more along the lines as a tie breaker soft? I'm looking at ASU for example, which has a median GPA of 3.9, which is the same as Columbia and Cornell...
I definitely dropped like 10+ points from my practice test and scored 1 point less than my last score and it did feel easier I even felt like I got atleast 20 of the lg correct so idk it’s just weird idk if it was just me thinking I did good but I just didn’t I don’t know
For what it’s worth, I scored at the top of my range on the June LSAT. I think you’re right about the selection bias; I thought the test was a typical level of difficulty.
A caveat I would add for those who already don’t do this is to not memorize the passage, just understand it. You should know what the author is talking about, how they feel about it, and the general purpose of each paragraph. You should also apply some logical reasoning type shit to this section in terms of thinking about the reasoning, assumptions, objections, and support for the arguments in the passage. Understanding the passage is the key to getting the questions right, but it’s pretty difficult to get any of them right if we spend too much time stuck in the passage. It’s all about balance.
Would you ever consider making a video on the kind of person who is realistically going to thrive in law school? I’m asking since I chose the pre-law track because I hate the injustice of capitalist imperialism and my friends who’ve been arrested for protesting Israel’s genocide have emphasized the importance of lawyers involved in the struggle for liberation. I’m not really interested in Big Law or Personal Injury (which is gonna be unfortunate for my law school debt). But as I work as a litigation assistant for a PI firm, shadow at the public defender’s office, and talk to students at my state’s major law schools (UF and FSU), I’m starting to question whether law school is the place for someone like me. I don’t feel too inept to become a lawyer. I want to learn. I like reading articles in law reviews. I’m reading Toward Nakba As A Legal Concept right now and it’s fascinating. The work of the National Lawyer’s Guild is incredible and I currently use their resources when engaging in direct action. However, law school seems to be an almost overtly conservative environment where very few students look and/or think like me, especially here in Florida. Is someone with my values shooting themself in the foot by entering this field for these reasons?
