There are plenty of reasons why taking a class with an instructor is the most effective way to prepare for the LSAT. Buying a good study guide or practicing with old LSAT tests helps. But they’re no substitute for working with an instructor who really knows his stuff.

Our instructors have scored above the 95th percentile on the LSAT
Each of our instructors scored in the top 5% of LSAT test-takers. But mastery of the LSAT isn’t enough. Our instructors also have to be able to clearly explain the material to students – that is, to teach. Other prep companies hire individuals with superb LSAT scores who sometimes turn out to be ineffective communicators.

Our instructors have to pass an audition
When we hire instructors, we put them through a competitive audition by having them teach a mock prep class to a room full of university students. We can’t think of anyone better qualified than students to spot the best teachers so we let your peers decide who we hire. Only Prep101 goes to these lengths.

Our instructors have been teaching students at this level for years
We’re the only LSAT prep company that also offers prep courses for undergraduate classes so our instructors have years of teaching experience at the university level.

We post every instructor’s biography, teaching experience, and evaluations
We firmly believe that students should know who’s going to teach them. That’s why we post information about all our instructors on our website, including a full biography, educational background, and teaching history.

But we don’t stop there. We ask each of our students to rate their instructor’s performance. And because you ought to know how well the person who’ll be teaching you performs in the classroom, we post those reviews alongside the instructor’s biography. No other LSAT prep company does that.

A good study guide is almost as essential to your LSAT preparation as the instructor. You’re dealing with more information than you’ve ever had to in any class you’ve taken before. A well-organized study guide helps you manage it.

Customized to the LSAT
Our Master the LSAT Study Guide is not a general textbook. It’s meant to help you learn the material and master the problem-solving skills you need to write the LSAT – nothing more, nothing less. It has plenty of practice LSAT questions, and strikes the right balance between explanation and practice.

Comprehensive, Concise, and Focused
Some LSAT prep companies think they’re giving you more value by pumping their study guides full of facts. But all you get is hundreds of pages of extraneous information. Our Master the LSAT study guide presents only material you need to know for the test.

Integrated into the Classroom
It’s not enough simply to include relevant information in the study guide. You need to review it in class too. Some companies assume that students will cover much of the material on their own. Not us – we cover the entire study guide in the classroom. And our instructors give out their e-mail addresses and hold office hours, so students can ask them questions any time.

User-friendly
A good study guide makes complicated concepts easy to understand, taking you step-by-step through the problems you’ll encounter on the LSAT. Our Master the LSAT study guide isn’t a jargon-laden textbook. Its design helps you quickly and easily find the information you need, using simple and clear explanations
