LSAT Prep Course Options in Orangeburg, NY

“Before taking TestMasters, I took another popularly known LSAT class and received an average score on the test. I decided that I wanted to try again, and sought advice from some young, successful attorneys. All of the former TestMasters students recommended it highly. As this was not the case for some of the other well-known courses, I decided to try TestMasters.

The difference between TestMasters and my previous course was drastic. My TestMasters instructor was always excited to be there. Not only was he enthusiastic and extremely knowledgeable, but he managed to do the seemingly impossible—he breathed life into LSAT questions! On one occasion we had a substitute, and the substitute was just as engaging as my regular instructor, which suggests that my great teacher was not the exception to the rule at TestMasters.

Before TestMasters, I could not fathom scoring much higher than I did on my first try. But as the course progressed I felt more confident and more efficient in my abilities across the board. Even as I improved past my own expectations, it still did not register that I could potentially score in the upper percentiles. TestMasters opened that door for me. I could not be happier that I chose this course. Undoubtedly, I will strongly recommend TestMasters in the future.”

“Before TestMasters, I felt overwhelmed by the idea of the LSAT and was unsure of how to begin preparing for the test. The structure of the TestMasters course and their method of breaking down different question types was exactly what I needed to make the test feel manageable. My instructor was fantastic and kept the class entertaining while presenting the massive amount of material very clearly.

My score didn’t change much from the first diagnostic test to the second, but I already felt much more confident with the material and knew I would improve. In the last few weeks of the course I was consistently scoring 10 points above my starting point on practice tests. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the course to anyone planning on taking the LSAT—the skill of the instructors, the amount of prep materials provided, and the online resources absolutely make the class worth the cost.”

“When I decided to pursue law school, I was nervous about the LSAT because, in general, I did not perform well on standardized tests and I knew nothing about this particular test. My friend recommended I sign up for the TestMasters course because he did so and had fantastic results. Thankfully, I listened to him. I was crushed after I scored a 145 on my first diagnostic because I thought my dream of attending law school was over. I thought it would be impossible to achieve my goal of 160, and I considered giving up. However, my TestMasters instructor explained to me that the first test means nothing and told me about success stories of students improving by 20+ points, which made me believe that with TestMasters a 160 was still possible. Not only did I reach my goal, I far exceeded it. I am now receiving scholarships at schools that I first labeled as reaches, and I am a competitive applicant at schools that I used to only dream about attending. My 23-point increase is indicative of the incredibly effective methods taught by TestMasters to answer all of the different types of questions on the test as well as the dedicated and highly knowledgeable instructors.”

“TestMasters in general and my class instructor in particular have my undying thanks. I could not have gotten a 178 on the LSAT without TestMasters. From little things like the fact that an either/or construct implies ‘or both’ to bigger things like the proper way to diagram sufficient/necessary statements, the things I learned from the classes and materials were absolutely instrumental to my LSAT success.

My instructor was a great guy and at least as great a teacher. He was appropriately serious but maintained a sense of humor to leaven what can be a very stressful, anxious process of preparation. He was thorough but not ponderous and always made sure to address any lingering questions. TestMasters is an intensive course—6 hours of class a week could be rough, but he was able to make sure that the course was intensive without being intense. I feel lucky that he was my instructor.

More generally, the TestMasters course is very well put-together. The lessons are clear and the wealth of prep materials is astounding. I took the LSAT twice, and had more than enough practice questions with which to prepare for each. The strategies, tips, and advice are never less than spot-on and made a world of difference. I knew going in that it would require a high degree of self-motivation, but TestMasters makes it easy to apply oneself fully to the task.

I had several friends who insisted I take TestMasters. Having scored a 166 on my first prep test (without having done any prep), I was hesitant to put in the time and money. I am SO glad that I listened to them and made the investment.”

“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.”

“After deciding to take the LSAT, I did not know which approach was best to study for the test. Some of the pre-law students on my campus were using self-study regimes, but the thought of studying for the test on my own seemed daunting. It was not a coincidence that the people that I talked to who did the best on the LSAT had also taken the TestMasters course. After doing some more research online, it became clear to me that TestMasters was definitely the best option. The course provides more than enough resources to be successful on the exam and the diagnostics I took each week were crucial to keeping track of my progress. I could have never improved 16 points on my own and I am so thankful I chose to take the TestMasters course.”

“I absolutely loved the TestMasters course! Our instructor Hailey Evans encouraged everyone in the class to participate and provided individualized feedback and answers to questions, which, in turn, enabled her to really cater to each of our strengths and weaknesses. We also learned from each other’s questions as well as from the planned lessons and course materials. This process of learning as a group demonstrated for me how well the TestMasters methodology truly worked. Although we each came in with a different way of looking at questions and a different degree of preexisting aptitude, the skills and tools that we were learning could be systematically applied to any given question by each of us.

I personally felt that this course made two major contributions to my test taking.The first was that when I chose an answer, I almost always knew with confidence exactly why that was the correct answer, as opposed to just feeling as though it was. The second contribution was the sheer volume of questions that we completed and reviewed, both on our own and in class, within the framework of given lessons. I became so familiar with the way that the LSAT writers structure their various questions and the common types of ’sucker choice’ answers, that I quickly began to see red flags in answer choices that I otherwise might have had a much harder time eliminating. This allowed me to get through the test questions more quickly while at the same time getting fewer wrong answers.”

“I researched the different LSAT prep options before deciding to take the TestMasters course. I read a lot of positive reviews about TestMasters and they were all warranted. I decided to take the self-paced online version of the course, which was a great balance of structure and flexibility. I was able to set up a study plan and stick with it. The videos were engaging and informative, and the diagnostic tests and analyses were helpful in identifying which problem types were difficult for me. Thanks to TestMasters, schools have been reaching out to me, offering me fee waivers, and asking me to apply. I owe the huge jump in my score to TestMasters and I recommend the course because it really works.”

“I have been pleased with TestMasters’ services since day one. My instructor was a phenomenal teacher and clearly willing to be an asset to her students. She did a great job answering everyone’s questions and kept the class involved with her humor and lighthearted personality. The TestMasters course motivated me to study for the LSAT week after week. By attending all the classes, working through thousands of LSAT questions and explanations, and taking the diagnostic tests, I went from a 157 on the first diagnostic to a 169 on the actual LSAT! I am now able to confidently apply to many top law schools with this score. Thank you TestMasters!”

“Preparing for the LSAT can be a stressful undertaking. For me, TestMasters eased that stress. I hadn’t even cracked a prep book before my TestMasters course began, so I can say with confidence that TestMasters gave me the structure and support I needed to raise my score immensely. The TestMasters curriculum begins by teaching the core logical concepts on which the test hangs. By first getting a strong grasp of the constructs that underlie the LSAT, I was well equipped to absorb the subsequent material, and did so at a fast pace. The course also did a great job of pointing out patterns and trends in the questions, which proved incredibly valuable on test day. Furthermore, both during and after the course, I had the support of the full TestMasters staff, and each person I interacted with, whether in person or online, was devoted to my success. Moreover, the individualized support I received from my live class instructor, Robin Singh, also the course author, was truly wonderful and exceeded my expectations. Not only was he always available for questions, but he was able to target my weaknesses and suggest methods for improvement. If you want to feel prepared and assured on test day, choose TestMasters!”

“I took TestMasters with Chloe Hurley in preparation for the LSAT. When I first started, it was the first time I had ever seen the test and my score was a disappointing 143. With the help of TestMasters, I was able to score a 167 on the real thing after only twelve weeks of study. Chloe was consistently energetic and upbeat even though the class was from 7 to 10 at night and she made the course as interesting as possible, even through some especially tedious and frustrating material. She consistently answered all my questions, no matter how annoying or repetitive they were, in the most thorough ways possible and never made me feel dumb (even though sometimes I probably was). In the rare instance that she didn’t quite know the best explanation for something, she would go out of her way to find out the answer and relay it to the class. She was great and I would highly recommend her class to anyone preparing for the LSAT.

Beyond that, I was able to consistently watch refresher videos of Robin Singh teaching the lessons online, which was always helpful, especially after a particularly exhausting evening or a particularly difficult concept that needed a little more practice. Beyond that, the online academic support is literally the best. It’s like having a tutor without the extra cost – any question I had, they consistently made sure to answer in the best way possible. One moment stands out: there was this one instructor that recognized I was being lazy in my formulating of questions because I just wanted it explained to me without actually thinking why I got the wrong answer. She told me “I’m going to push back and I want you to explain what your actually thinking on this was”. At first I was irked at this because as we all know when you don’t understand something, it’s easy (and less embarrassing ) to just say explain it to me, but after a few times of this, I would get halfway through trying to explain my thought process and literally say “OH, that’s where I went wrong” and I can’t be more appreciative to her for making me work harder. This class obviously requires work (a lot of it), no one’s going to be doing it for you, but if you put the time and effort in, the support system is there to guide you through it and help you get the best score you can.”

“I initially heard about TestMasters through my older brother who took the course and scored a 172 on his LSAT. He recommended it highly so I figured it was worth trying. I started out by getting a 164 on my first diagnostic, but, after meeting my instructor, Amelia Brasher, I was optimistic that my score could improve. She was intelligent, energetic, fun, and, most importantly, genuinely interested in seeing us all do well.

The classes were well designed and incredibly effective. They taught all of the necessary methods and tools for taking the test. The homeworks, while often extremely long, really helped solidify the lessons that were taught in the preceding classes. Furthermore, the TestMasters website was an essential resource for additional study material.

By the end of the course my diagnostic scores were routinely in the mid-170s. I felt that the TestMasters program had adequately prepared me for the actual LSAT. By the time the test day rolled around I felt comfortable and confident, having practiced this day so many times with TestMasters. I ended up getting a 179, much better than I ever could have imagined on my first day in the program.

I owe a tremendous amount of my success to TestMasters for providing me with all of the tools that are necessary in order to do well on the LSAT. They made sure I was well prepared for the test, as well as the test day itself. I highly recommend this fantastic service. If you want to improve your score, and are willing to put in the necessary work to do that, then take TestMasters. You won’t be sorry.”
