LSAT Prep Course Options in Newport News, VA

“I recommend TestMasters completely. The course was very engaging and beneficial and the way it was taught made attending class enjoyable. For example, the way the materials were organized and divided made it easy to compartmentalize the tools to solve each type of question and made the information easier to manage. It was especially important that we met twice a week, three hours at a time, so that when test day came I felt comfortable working for that long of a time period. The homework questions were extremely helpful because they were all from real exams. The diagnostics helped with both timing and mental preparation for test day. TestMasters is the best in LSAT preparation.”

“I first heard about TestMasters through a friend who took the class and scored a 165. Her recommendation plus the results she got were enough for me to consider signing up. I had recently completed graduate school and took the summer off before starting work. I studied business in undergrad and graduate school and wanted to do something to ensure I got the best score I was capable of (so that I would only have to take the test once). I purchased two different LSAT books but without the classroom environment, self-study proved futile. I spoke with a different friend who took a LSAT class with Kaplan, and while she was happy with the class, she wasn’t satisfied with her score.

I visited the TestMasters website and saw that there was a class offered in my area. I registered for the class and looked forward to getting started. I took the first practice test with very little preparation and scored a 156. Shannon Sanders (our instructor) also took the time to explain the LSAT, how it factors into your application to law school, and what we needed to do as students to get the most out of the class.

TestMasters is definitely a rigorous program. By the end of the course you’ve seen every type of question you might see on the LSAT and you have enough practice to know how to approach the question, how to answer the question, how to recognize a right answer and how to recognize a wrong answer. At first all the questions seem overwhelming, but Shannon provided a system for us to see every type of question even if we couldn’t complete all the homework in between classes.

TestMasters’ diagnostic scoring is very helpful. In addition to knowing what score you would have received on the real LSAT and seeing which questions you got right and wrong, you also get a detailed report showing how you did on each specific question type. These reports allowed me to focus on my weakest areas as my test date approached.

I scored my highest on the final practice test, a 167. On the real thing I got a 165. There is no way I would’ve been able to achieve that without TestMasters!”

“After taking TestMasters, there is no doubt in my mind that it is the best LSAT prep course out there. After taking Princeton Review courses for various other standardized tests such as the SAT, it was a relief that TestMasters does not resort to ‘tricks’ that supposedly increase your score without much effort. Rather, the TestMasters course goes to great lengths to truly make everyone understand the test and the logic behind each and every type of question. Moreover, there is no end to the practice problems available. On test day, I knew exactly what to expect and felt 100% prepared. Thanks to the TestMasters course, I was able to dramatically increase my score, which will do wonders for my chances of getting into top law schools.”

“Taking a TestMasters course was the best decision I made before applying to law school. Without a doubt, my score would not have been as high if I had tried to study on my own. My class grew very close and it was an atmosphere where everyone felt comfortable asking questions, and my instructor went above and beyond to ensure we all grasped crucial LSAT concepts. As much as I would like to claim full ownership of my success on the test, I know I couldn’t have done it without TestMasters. I have high hopes that I will be able to take the reasoning skills I learned and apply them to law school with ease.”

“I cannot recommend TestMasters enough. I heard about the course from a friend who was urged to choose TestMasters over other test prep companies by her college’s pre-law advisors. I had attempted to study on my own and was scheduled to take the test, but I was disappointed that I kept scoring in the low 160s with no sign of improvement. At the last minute, I decided to postpone taking the LSAT and signed up for the course. One of the main reasons I took the class was to take diagnostics under official test-taking conditions, but I got so much more out of it than that. My instructor was the best! He addressed every question we had while keeping the pace fast enough to be interesting, and he made the class fun. By attending every meeting and doing the homework, I was able to increase my score to a 175, even with a full-time job. I work at a law firm and even my bosses were impressed! I actually did better on the real LSAT than I had done on my last couple diagnostics, and that was due to the confidence I gained from taking TestMasters.”

“The TestMasters course helped me immensely. I scored a 163 on my first diagnostic and moved up to a 177 on the actual test. The course taught me a new way of logical thinking that is essential to success on the LSAT. It was a significant time commitment, but in the end all of the work paid off. By the day of the test, no question on the LSAT was a surprise to me, and most questions felt very familiar. I have heard mixed reviews of other LSAT prep courses, but never a bad review of TestMasters. I strongly recommend this course.”

“The law school admissions process requires applicants to make several important decisions. Undoubtedly, the most important of these is deciding how to prepare for the LSAT, which is a significant factor in law school admissions. Faced with a subpar GPA, I knew that I needed to perform well on this test if I was to get into my target schools. For this reason, I chose to prepare with TestMasters. I could not be happier with the decision I made: after taking the TestMasters course, I raised my score 10 points to a 167. I am convinced that this score was integral in my admission to my top choice law school.

TestMasters is different from other prep programs not only for its innovative techniques, but for its personal touch. This is evidenced by their academic support department, which allows students to confer with instructors regarding any LSAT questions they might have. I utilized this service on several occasions, and found it to be an invaluable resource in my LSAT preparation; it was like having a personal tutor at my beck and call. I found all of the instructors to be incredibly helpful, courteous, and patient.

Another example of this personal attention can be seen in the actions of my classroom instructor. Throughout my time in the course, I took several self-proctored practice tests, which helped me to target potential areas of improvement. When I came into class the following week, my instructor would approach me and comment on the scores I had received. It was clear that he had studied my results; he suggested exercises I should complete to improve my score on certain question types. I am convinced that this personal attention I received helped me improve my score.

After speaking with friends who took other LSAT prep courses, I am convinced that TestMasters is the best. I will continue to recommend this program to all of my friends who take the LSAT.”

“I thought I would dread going to LSAT class six hours a week all summer, but my TestMasters instructor, Anthony Meni, was so engaging and personable that the classes were always fun. He interacted with students as both an ally and coach, and his vested interest in our success was apparent from day one. Anthony was also incredibly approachable with respect to both substantive and test stress issues, never failing to offer a relevant example or compelling anecdote.

The TestMasters curriculum is well-structured and comprehensive. Their approach is deeply thoughtful and intensive; rather than just giving test-specific advice and surface-level tips, TestMasters taught me to really consider and interpret the concepts that underlie the LSAT. I’ve even found myself applying these logical principles in daily life, months after the test! Also, TestMasters offers the best in terms of preparatory materials. The quantity and organization of former test questions ensured that I had unending opportunities to practice. TestMasters also employs a tremendous array of online resources, from video lectures to topic-specific quizzes to performance trackers, which helped me keep up with the material after I had finished the live classes.

I honestly could not have asked for a better test preparation experience. TestMasters is the way to go for serious, motivated LSAT takers.”

“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.”

“Having never performed well on standardized tests in the past, I knew I needed to seek help from experienced and knowledgeable professionals in order to perform my best on the LSAT. After the big-name, mainstream course I had signed up for was cancelled, I signed up for TestMasters on a whim, and thank goodness I did! Due to other commitments, I went with their self-paced online program and their academic support team helped me develop a reasonable schedule that I could stick to while still allowing me to maintain my everyday commitments.

I was excited and encouraged after scoring a 161 on my first diagnostic, but after almost two months of studying my score went up a measly two points to a 163. Needless to say, I was disappointed. On the verge of tears I spoke to one of their instructors, and she went through some of the questions I couldn’t wrap my head around, encouraged me that the course was not yet over, and cautioned that the climb through the 160s wouldn’t be an easy one.

I focused all my time and energy for the next month on learning the best techniques for tackling all different question types. TestMasters allows its students to truly get to know the LSAT through video instruction along with extensive lessons and homework materials. By the time test day rolled around, I had been taking daily diagnostics and felt confident and excited to prove myself through the skills that TestMasters taught me. I ended up scoring a 173 and received close to a full tuition scholarship at my dream school, which four months earlier seemed unattainable.

The climb through the 160s wasn’t easy, but TestMasters made it possible. Thank you TestMasters!”

“TestMasters really helped me to achieve an LSAT score that I was proud of. My score on the first diagnostic test was a 146 and I was a little discouraged. But I made sure to attend every class and to finish all the homework so that my score would improve. Throughout the class my score kept going up and on the day of the actual LSAT I got a 164! TestMasters helped me improve my score by 18 points! The classes were helpful but the repetition of the homework is what really helped me to improve. I really appreciate all the help I got from this class and could not have achieved my score without it.”

“At first, I was leery of taking an online course since I’ve consistently done better in a classroom environment than by myself with a computer screen. But I just couldn’t turn away from the glowing reviews of TestMasters. I signed up for the self-paced version of their online LSAT course, and I haven’t regretted it for a moment since. The online interface was intuitive, and I never felt as if I was studying by myself. From the video lectures to the drills and practice questions to the personalized academic support, TestMasters was a 360-degree studying experience.”
