The LSAT is a digital exam that plays a pivotal role in law school admissions. It is weighed at least as heavily as the undergraduate grade point average for admission to many selective law schools.
Our LSAT Tutoring Program
Our educational and comprehensive approach to LSAT preparation has led to dramatic score improvements, sharper reasoning skills, and heightened self-confidence. We evaluate each student's strengths and weaknesses, develop an individual program that meets the student's needs, and emphasize a thorough analysis of the exam itself.
Through weekly meetings and homework, we present methods for identifying and understanding the specific question types encountered on the LSAT. Proctored, full-length practice tests provide opportunities for students to exercise techniques for solving problems on each section of the test.
Contact us to speak to a program consultant about your goals and set up a diagnostic LSAT.
Program Length
Our LSAT program is long-term and rigorous. We recommend that students dedicate a few months to preparing for the LSAT. This thorough approach allows students to achieve their best possible results on this important exam.

How is the LSAT Scored?
- LSAT scores are scaled from 120 to 180, based on the test-taker's performance on the multiple-choice sections.
- The LSAT Writing sample is unscored, but it is sent to the applicant's selected law schools as part of the LSAT score report.
When is the LSAT Taken?
The LSAT is offered in June, July, September, October, November, January, February, March, and April.
LSAT Testing Limits
Starting with the August 2023 test administration, you will be allowed to take the LSAT:
- Five times within the current reportable score period (approximately the last five years)
- Seven times over a lifetime
Tests taken after September 2019 will count toward these limits. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, tests taken in May, June, July, and August 2020 will not count toward these limits.
Additionally, LSAC will not allow anyone who has scored a 180 within the current and past five testing years to retake the test, even if they achieved this score before September 2019.
