LSAT Prep Course Options in Smithfield, RI

“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.”

“I would certainly recommend taking the TestMasters course to anyone interested in taking the LSAT. In the summer I decided I would register to take the September LSAT, and I signed up for the TestMasters course only days before the first diagnostic. Due to the instruction I received at TestMasters, my score quickly rose into the 170s on my diagnostics, and I scored a 172 on the real LSAT. I am not naturally a logical person, so I was pleased with this score. My TestMasters instructor was a vibrant teacher who was clearly committed to helping each student reach his or her highest potential. Taking TestMasters was also helpful because it familiarized me with the material on the LSAT and presented the underlying logic of the LSAC test writers. By the end of the course, I had a solid understanding not only of why certain answers were correct, but also of why LSAC had asked the question in the first place and why the question was framed that way. I had learned what LSAC was testing on each question. This improved my timing, as I learned to predict the right answer from the question stem before I had read any of the answer options. This also helped my performance on the more difficult questions, as I was able to move beyond the convoluted language and bizarre inverted sentences to discern the logic behind the questions.”

“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 took my Test Masters course after the end of the spring semester of my junior year of college. After doing the research online, I found that they came highly recommended and had the best schedule for my needs. On the preliminary exam I received a 168, which I did not expect to improve as it was already quite high. However, after the two months of classes with very helpful and intelligent instructors I was scoring above 170 consistently on past exams (which Test Masters conveniently provides in their online portal). Our classes ran right up to the week before the exam and, with my lessons fresh in my head, I was able to score a 176 on the official exam, putting me in the 99th percentile. I can say without a doubt that I would not have been able to do this without TestMasters.”

“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 worth every penny, and I cannot stress that enough. While other programs may provide tempting price deals, you simply can’t compromise quality. TestMasters provides first-rate teachers so comfortable with the curriculum you will never for a moment question their competency. On top of that, they provide more study material then you will ever get to...believe me, I tried! Taking TestMasters was by far the best decision I’ve ever made and I now have a score that will allow me to get into a great law school; and for that I am forever grateful. Take TestMasters and do the homework, you will knock the test out of the park.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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 was referred to TestMasters by a friend who had recently taken the LSAT. After I did some research and checked schedules, it seemed as though the TestMasters course was the best fit for me, and that proved to be the case. Its creator, Robin Singh, has broken down the LSAT into components/types of questions and set them up in a way that’s easily digested. They have a lot of good techniques for getting to the correct answer. Also, for the two-plus months that I spent studying for the LSAT, the TestMasters website was my best friend. The site is clear and easy to navigate and has pretty much everything an LSAT student might need.

I knew I had the potential to do well on the LSAT but I was not sure how I was going to get there. TestMasters was the answer.”

“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.”
