Average Score Improvement

In the summer of 2010 we tracked the scores of two entire classes of our LSAT students in Toronto Ontario as they progressed through our LSAT prep course. In week one we took their baseline scores from the full-length Diagnostic LSAT and four full-length official LSAC LSATs – one per week – over the rest of the (then 5-week) course.

The results? As the graph shows, the average scaled score was 146 (33rd percentile) on the Diagnostic LSAT. That’s below the competitive range. Yet the scores started to steadily improve and on LSAT #5, at the end of the prep course, the class average had risen 10 points to 156 (71st percentile) and inside the competitive range for many Canadian law schools. One student scored 133 (4th percentile) on the Diagnostic LSAT and 158 (77th percentile) on LSAT #5. Not bad!
