LSAT Prep Course Options in Lawrence, MA

“TestMasters came highly recommended to me by several of my friends who are in law school. I’ll admit I was very nervous about not studying on my own before class began, but I was able to put those feelings aside and trust the course. On my first practice test I scored a 143. I would have felt dejected had I not known about the big score increases TestMasters advertised. I buckled down and studied every day, doing almost all of the homework and taking eleven practice tests during the course. I found the classes, lessons, and online resources to be exceptional and followed the advice of my instructor. My hard work paid off when I received a 162 on my official LSAT, which is the highest I have ever scored. I am right in the range I hoped for when I started the class (160-165) and am definitely a contender at my goal schools. Thank you TestMasters for helping me score big on one of the most difficult tests I have ever taken!”

“When I first considered taking the LSAT, the thought of studying for such a long and comprehensive test was quite daunting. However, these fears were quickly alleviated once I started my TestMasters class and explored TestMasters’ online resources. The curriculum broke down the LSAT into manageable pieces and the online videos and exercises answered any question that arose. With practice, I became very comfortable with each aspect of the test. On test day, I was totally confident that I would not encounter any surprises because I had already seen and practiced every type of question the test could ask.

Just as valuable as TestMasters’ extensive preparatory materials was the fabulous teaching I received. My instructor was incredibly engaged with the class and always took the time, both during and outside of class, to ensure that everyone understood each concept. His energetic personality and easygoing but effective teaching style made studying for the LSAT far more fun and easy than I ever imagined. He not only taught me the test taking tips needed to ace the LSAT, but, far more importantly, he instilled in me a new, logic-based way of thinking and problem solving. Long after I forget the difference between Type 4 and Type 5 questions, I will still use these new problem-solving skills in many aspects of my life.”

“I improved my score by 23 points from my first diagnostic after four months of studying through TestMasters’ self-paced online prep course. The course is easy to follow, accommodates different learning paces, and uses repetition to reinforce essential strategies. In my experience, it took several months and 5-10 practice tests before I felt familiar enough with both the material and the experience of taking the test that I understood which building blocks of the course I needed to revisit and fortify. About a month before my scheduled test date, I was scoring considerably below my goal and had difficulty identifying much of a pattern in the question types I was getting wrong. I decided to work with a TestMasters tutor, Megan Giacomantonio, for several one-hour sessions. Megan was incredibly patient, thoughtful and generous with her time. She encouraged me to consistently employ the methodology (i.e. stopping at the stimulus to take it in, actively ID question types upon reading the question stems), which really turned everything around for me. I decided to delay my scheduled test date by a month, and with more practice, I began scoring consistently in the high 160s. I did not reach my goal of 170 until test day. I unequivocally recommend this course to anyone embarking on studying for the LSAT, particularly to folks working full-time. For me, a combination of delaying my scheduled test date by a month and working with a tutor one-on-one was instrumental to my success.”

“I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with TestMasters or about my instructor. I recommend this course to everybody, which is really saying something because I am a student executive leader for the political science department and I talk to pre-law students about the LSAT almost exclusively. I thought the curriculum made sense and the homeworks, though challenging and frustrating when I was doing them, were so helpful and necessary in hindsight. What made this program most impactful was my instructor, Anthony Meni. He went above and beyond to help me through my LSAT process and, from what I have heard from other TestMasters students, I was not unique in this experience. I genuinely believe that he wanted each of us to succeed not only on the LSAT but in law school and as attorneys. He would frequently connect course concepts to practical experience (What skill is this question type trying to exercise? What about a legal practice might necessitate this skill?) to keep us grounded and to help us remember why the LSAT mattered for our goals. In a class of over 40 people, he knew my name and remembered basic facts about me (topics that confused me in the past, what my goal schools were, etc). I recently enrolled in my dream school with a merit-based scholarship and I absolutely attribute a percentage of my success to Anthony’s guidance and to the TestMasters curriculum.”

“Unlike other LSAT prep courses which try and teach tricks to answer LSAT questions or how to make your best guess, TestMasters teaches you how to find the correct answer every time. They teach you why that answer is right and every other answer is clearly wrong. They don’t take any shortcuts in their teaching methods and instead teach you how to think like the test writers. I loved going to my class and this made studying that much easier. My instructor not only took time to answer all of our questions, she encouraged us to challenge her thinking, until it was clear in all of our minds why the correct answer was correct. I ended up raising my score 30 points because TestMasters taught me how to think like the LSAT.”

“TestMasters was phenomenal! Having experience with multiple TestMasters instructors, I can also say that each one was extremely competent and encouraging. They made us challenge ourselves, explain how and why we arrived at our answers in order to ensure we really understood each question. Not only did they help us master the test, but they also did their best to try and help us master our stress level, which is usually an obstacle in itself. When I walked into the exam, I felt ready, and even relatively calm. I knew TestMasters had prepared me in the best possible way, something I think the improvement in my score clearly reflects. If you’re willing to actually put in the time and work to get a top score on the LSAT, TestMasters is definitely the best resource available to do so.”

“I never presumed the LSAT to be a walk in the park, but after taking the first LSAT diagnostic I was seriously overwhelmed and found my score to be much lower than what I was hoping to accomplish. Even though I was discouraged, I resolved to stick out the course and see what happened. I am now confident that it was the best decision I could have made.

I attribute my success to my instructor and the TestMasters program. This course and their instructors are so different from other prep courses because of their approach and the sheer amount of resources given to you. Rather than teaching gimmicks and shortcuts—and believe me there are NO tricks to the LSAT—you are taught how to think and how to apply strategies to every single type of passage and question you may encounter. Not only was my instructor able to tell me why answers were correct, he was also able to explain exactly why all of the other answers were wrong. Because the answer choices sometimes have only slight variations in them, this was extremely useful.

In addition to the in-class hours, TestMasters provides you with extensive homework, supplemental material, and numerous full-length past LSATs. The minute that you have completed a practice exam, a detailed score report is waiting for you. This shows exactly which problems you got wrong and which types of questions they were, providing you with your areas of strength and weakness so you know what you need to work on to maximize your points. As long as you are willing and motivated to put in daily hours of extremely hard work and practice using these resources, you can literally train your mind to think like the LSAT and attack each problem rather than be intimidated.

Looking back on those months of intensive and focused preparation, dedication and sacrifice I now realize that it was all worth it because my score increased by 19 points! Thanks to TestMasters, I can now apply to a wide range of law schools and couldn’t be happier. This course is worth all the time and money, and should be recommended to anyone taking the LSAT.”

“My first encounter with the LSAT was taking a free test available on LSAC’s website. My score was respectable but not as high as the score I knew I would need to get to be an attractive candidate to top law schools. Initially, I planned to prepare for the exam with just an LSAT prep book. However, my mother heard good things about TestMasters. ‘Why not?’, I thought. When I looked at the mountain of coursework from TestMasters, I wondered what I had gotten myself into. But after starting the course, I knew I’d made the right choice.They taught several techniques that allowed me to understand the test questions better and answer them quickly. I particularly found it helpful to learn how to diagram logical reasoning questions involving necessary and sufficient conditions. When I took the actual LSAT, I felt very well-prepared and calm and finished each section early. I am thrilled with my score and feel that the TestMasters course was much more beneficial than any book would have been.”

“TestMasters was absolutely fantastic. I was coming out of a great undergraduate school and had a goal of attending a top 20 law school. However my 40th percentile starting point was not going to get me anywhere I wanted to be, so I really have to give credit to the TestMasters course and my brilliant instructor Amelia Brasher for my 20-point score increase. Certainly there was a lot of hard work involved, but the classes were critical to my success. Amelia was always extremely clear in her explanations and made certain that a question was fully understood before moving on. Moreover, she always taught the class with a smile and a great attitude—something much needed in what could have become an even more stressful process. I cannot say enough how much I appreciate the TestMasters prep course. It got me to 170 and made me a competitive candidate for a top law school. I’d recommend—and have recommended—TestMasters to anyone taking the LSAT.”

“TestMasters provides an outstanding product that is extremely useful even for students who have a strong natural aptitude for the LSAT. By participating in class exercises, sticking to the rigorous homework expectations, and working through the practice tests you can be sure that your performance on the real test is a reflection of your best abilities!”

“I never thought I would see a 15-point improvement from my original diagnostic to my final score on the June LSAT—and I probably would not have without TestMasters! The instructor created a relaxed yet engaging learning environment, where students were not intimidated to ask questions; she was very helpful and was even willing to provide advice to students after class. TestMasters is not out to provide future law students with an easy way out; enrolling in a TestMasters prep course means committing to a significant amount of time and work. (It was certainly a challenge for me to juggle the TestMasters workload along with my regular school work.) There are no tricks and shortcuts to the LSAT. As I took more practice tests and did more work on my own, I realized that in class, I was learning a new way of thinking that made me comfortable with almost any problem that I encountered. Unlike some other prep methods that teach somewhat rigid formulas for cracking the LSAT, TestMasters teaches a more universal method that can help someone break down and solve any problem. In addition, TestMasters provides an abundance of resources, like written and video explanations, which were especially helpful. Copious amounts of practice materials from sets of logical reasoning questions to full-length practice tests allowed me to grow more and more comfortable with the test as I prepared. These opportunities to familiarize myself with the test really came in handy come test day. Thank you, TestMasters!!”

“After taking TestMasters, I have no doubt that it is the best test prep course out there. Right from the beginning, TestMasters builds up your ability to use the tools necessary to handle any question that may come up, and the TestMasters philosophy and teaching methods were vital to my improving to the extent that I did. I had no need to buy any other practice materials or prepare in any other way. The course is organized very logically so that students can continually build on what they have already learned. TestMasters isn’t about teaching tricks, but rather about really understanding and learning how to tackle each question. Besides the instructor-led classes, the TestMasters online materials are extremely useful, thorough, and easy to navigate. The course offered so much well-organized practice that I felt completely confident on test day. The instructors are really committed to helping students, and they make sure that every concept is fully covered before moving ahead. I would recommend that anyone who is serious about taking the LSAT should enroll in a TestMasters course.”
