The following is a selection of just a
few of the comments students have made about the PowerScore
Full-length LSAT Course:
"I
just wanted to thank PowerScore and its employees for
putting together such an incredible program. I had taken
the LSAT's once before and scored a 154. On the second
try, after a PowerScore class taught by a most qualified
instructor, I raised my score to 170. Thank you."
Russell Jarem
Providence, RI
"I am so happy that I chose PowerScore over the
other courses offered! PowerScore helped me see the
LSAT as a very structured exam that could be tackled
effectively. My score went up tremendously once I understood
the logic of the test! I recommend this course to anyone
who is considering taking the LSAT. Also, the small
classes helped in allowing everyone to have time to
understand each and every concept!"
Niti Vashisht
Boston, MA
"I scored 143 on the first day of class. I got
a 159 on the actual test! And this was after the two
month Full-Length course during which I did only 5%
of the homework (stressed out and busy at a new job.
My doing as well as I did is a testament to the phenomenal
instructor, Eric, who I had. This young guy was brilliant.
As a former teacher I must say I've never seen such
teaching skill. I am honestly recommending PowerScore
to all. When I get those acceptance letters I will owe
a lot to PowerScore!"
Nancy Bernstein
New York City, NY
"I took the LSAT before I was in the PowerScore
class and I didn't do very well. Truthfully, I sat through
a Kaplan prep class before I took the test the first
time. For the amount of money and time you put into
the Kaplan class, it was worth about 1/4 of the PowerScore
class. My teacher Aaron for PowerScore was 100 times
better equipped to teach and explain concepts than the
Kaplan instructor. I appreciated the order of the material
presented through the course as well as the supplemental
materials/homework. This class was intense, with everything
packed into two months. However, I was still able to
retain many of the concepts through the many hours of
class.
I appreciated all of the time Aaron put into teaching
and the class. His understanding of the material and
ability to relay the information to us was of great
value.
The course is quality and I have recommended it to different
students looking to taking the LSAT."
Kristin Dini
Philadelphia, PA
"The course was phenomenal. Our teacher was more
enthusiastic about the course than the students, which
is a great thing, because we became just as enthusiastic.
I know this sounds like an info-mercial but the techniques
really work. I increased my practice test score by 10%."
Tonnjo Rayford
Atlanta, GA
"The class was very helpful. I wouldn't have known
where to start in the preparation process without it.
My instructor was excellent. She always had answers
and was genuinely concerned that we do well on the LSAT."
Elisha Wroten
Dallas, TX
"I am so grateful that I took the PowerScore prep
class. The personal approach and interest that my instructor
provided was a huge asset in doing my best on the LSAT.
My instructor truly cared about each and every one of
us doing our best, and did everything within his power
to enable us to do so. When it came to my LSAT testing
day, everything that could go wrong did! Not only was
the test building moved at the last minute, but also
the desks were tiny, and there was some guy chatting
away about how high his LSAT score was the first time
and that this time was for kicks! Amazingly, none of
this tripped me up whatsoever. Every last one of the
"traumatic" incidents that occurred, I had
been warned about and given coping mechanisms to deal
by my instructor. I was the first student at the test
center, and everything flowed smoothly from there. Those
potentially detrimental factors ended up being so insignificant,
that I forgot to tell my family members for two days!
What a great investment!"
Richard Bunney
Portland, OR
"I had studied for the LSAT with books prior to
taking the PowerScore course with minimal improvement,
but once I took the course, I felt like there was nothing
the test could throw at me that I didn't already learn.
The confidence I got from the course has put me in a
position to get into the law schools that I really wanted
to get into.
If you think about it, the thousand dollars you spend
for the PowerScore course is pennies in comparison the
to the starting salary discrepancies between highly
ranked and lowly ranked law schools. Thanks =)"
Monica Paek
Austin, TX
"I was very impressed by our instructor and her
ability to explain the material in a simple and understandable
manner. There is just no amount of money that would
ever make me teach this course due to the number of
difficult questions that our class presented to her.
She handled each and every question with grace, and
was never stuck on an answer! It wasn't a matter of
her knowing it all, but she was very quick at pointing
out any mistakes or flaws within our way of thinking.
You think that you're logical and there are no flaws
in the way you reason things, but I was delighted to
learn a whole new dimension of thinking. If you're not
taking the LSAT, you should still take the course just
so that someone like her can open the different dimensions
of your mind. Truly, I feel as though a larger portion
of my brain has been tapped into and I now realize that
what Socrates said was indeed true: the beginning of
knowledge is when you begin to realize that you know
nothing."
Sunhee Lee
Irvine, CA
"The PowerScore LSAT course was truly a blessing.
I was seaching the web, found the course and thought,
"I'll give it a try". I am so glad I did.
I am more focused and wiser. I now have the skills to
dissect and solve any given problem at a speed never
dreamed possible. Thank you for giving me the motivation
and courage to take the LSAT. Again, Thanks
Desiree' Alexander
Washington, D.C.
"I liked PowerScore because it is a test prep company
that has it's priorities in the right place. My teacher
was excellent and thoroughly understood how to teach
the material well. The material, class work, and homework
was practical and helpful."
Leslie Lott
Detroit, MI
"I thought the course provided me with insights
and strategies to improve my score and reach my goal
of 165 or above. When I first took a practice LSAT I
got a 149, and by the time I finished my full length
course I was hitting 165.
Our instructor was definitely intelligent and had the
experience necessary to teach the course. I found his
explanations helpful and useful."
Ryan Kerian
New Brunswick, NJ
"I would recommend this course to anyone who is
serious about maximizing their potential on the LSAT.
My instructor and the students in my class made this
course fun and helped me to remain focused. I especially
appreciated the supplemental information on the website,
such as the logic games answers for all of the tests
in the supplement. This is a well thought out course
that went beyond my initial expectations."
Jodi Bart
Austin, TX
"The PowerScore full-length LSAT course was well
organized and very well presented. I found the ample
supply of homework exercises and solutions to be invaluable
to the in-class course materials. My instructor was
excellent and presented difficult ideas clearly and
effectively. Overall, the class was excellent."
Brian Wong
Palo Alto, CA
"Having taken the PowerScore LSAT prep course was
an excellent advantage on test-day. I feel like I understood
what was going on in the test-writer's minds when creating
certain problems. The course was an overall effective
and strategic way to plan for the LSAT...All in all,
I am extremely happy that I took this class - no other
prep in my area even compares."
Matthew Guanci
Boston, MA
"I really thought that the New Brunswick class
was a great setting because the class was smaller, which
allowed for better interaction, which was great. Overall,
excellent course and excellent preparation materials
and resources for students. I would highly recommend
PowerScore over any other prep course I have seen or
taken."
Raxann A. Chin
New Brunswick, NJ
"Having taken a Kaplan class previously, I must
say that the PowerScore in-class time is much more direct,
focused and thorough than that other company. The length
and intensity of the class really prepares you for all
the concepts you'll face on the test, and the homework
-- all two to three hours of it per night -- really
drills home the material. Also, I like the way the class
is set up, and the fact that it stresses concepts that
can be used in the various sections of the LSAT. I found
that Kaplan stressed the distinctness of each section
to a fault, and PowerScore does a much better job of
teaching you ideas you can use for anything you might
face. Additionally, my instructor is extraordinarily
thorough and patient. Plus, he really knows his stuff;
another thing I can't say for Kaplan."
Lou Mandarini
Boston, MA
"So far, I am very satisfied with the Powerscore
course. It is dramatically better than the course offered
by Princeton Review (which I took last summer). The
PowerScore instructor is mature, knowledgeable and is
able to convey the lessons in a meaningful way. This
was not always the case with my Princeton instructor.
Mainly though, the PowerScore approach to studying for
the LSAT is far superior. The suggestions for approaching
test questions focuses on improving understanding as
well as improving speed. Many of the suggestions offered
by Princeton Review were just too time consuming. I
would highly recommend PowerScore to other potential
law students."
Kirsten Waerstad
Boston, MA
"I have no clue what it is about standardized tests--especially
the LSAT--that scares me to death. PowerScore has definitely
helped me overcome this fear. I am now more comfortable
with the LSAT test and do not fear the test as much
as I did before the course. I can't believe I'm saying
this, but I actually look forward to taking the LSAT.
"
Chelsey Selby
Athens, GA
"I feel confident that I am much better prepared
for the LSAT than most of the others who did not take
the PowerScore course. Our instructor was a lot of fun
and very funny. She was always upbeat and willing to
give extra help to those who needed it and she seemed
prepared for every class and knew the material well.
She was a great person to get to know! The study materials
we were given were also very thorough. I am positive
that I will earn a higher score than I would have had
I not taken the PowerScore course."
Kelly Hansen
Minneapolis, MN
"My instructor Greg at Boston College was great
and I would strongly recommend PowerScore in the future
to others. Thank You!"
Margaret Pappas
Boston, MA
“PowerScore is the best value out there. The professor
along with the material made the course one of a kind!
I will recommend this course to anyone even thinking
about taking the LSAT.”
Lazaro Mederos
Miami, FL
"Just a quick note to let you know that the training
I received from the class was invaluable. When I finished
taking the real LSAT, I left the classroom with confidence
that I had reached my goal. I felt totally prepared.
Thanks,"
Toni Rufo
Philadelphia, PA
"PowerScore's LSAT preparation classes helped me
raise my score significantly. The materials were well
organized and the instructor effectively presented the
information. The strategies and techniques demonstrated
during the course increased my confidence level and
accuracy while allowing me to answer the questions more
quickly. Overall, I was very pleased with the course
and I would recommend it to anyone preparing for the
LSAT."
Leland Cogliani
Washington, D.C.
"I regret not learning about your program before
I took Kaplan. The materials are put together in a clear
and consise manner. Our instructor was funny, insightful
and to the point and because of his great score he inspired
me to work harder to achieve my goals. Because of your
methodology, every evening I was very excited to do
the challenges and home work. Thank you, PowerScore."
Keane Cort
New York City, NY
"PowerScore taught me to understand the LSAT. When
I first started working through the games and questions
I felt like I was trying to decode ancient symbols.
64 hours later, I feel like I could write one of the
tests myself!"
Bridget Seamon
Baltimore, MD
"This course is definately far better than PR or
Kaplan. But the 80 hours is no joke. Be prepared to
live in an LSAT closet for about 8 weeks."
Daniel M. Coyle
Boston, MA
"I would first like to say that your material compared
to the rest is absolutely better in preparation. Also,
you give no false guarantees or pseudo-promises of an
increased score. I think it's an excellent marketing
technique because it is more realistic, even though
I know now that taking a PowerScore course and or materials
would increase one's score more than those that are
actually "guaranteed." Mike was a wonderful
teacher and was very concerned about each students'
progress and troubles. I could not have asked for a
better instructor and course to help me prepare for
the LSAT. Thank you!"
Sheila Singh
Austin, TX
"Jeremy was a great instructor. I went from scoring
a 156 on the first practice test to a 167 on the real
thing. I went from being at the 71st percentile to the
96th percentile. I would recommend the course to anyone
who wants to do well on the LSAT."
Jeffrey Richter
Dallas, TX
"I never would have felt as confident on the day
of the test if I hadn't taken the PowerScore course.
The hours in class prepared me physically as well as
mentally to successfully complete that race against
the clock known as the LSAT. My instructor was also
very knowledgeble of the subject matter. We learned
a lot from him. Thanks, Powerscore! I couldn't have
done it without you!"
Natasha Todman
Baltimore, MD
"Dear Vicki: I mean this in the most sincere way.
You know, when the course location was changed and I
didn't like it, I spoke my mind. So you know, what I
am about to say is the true way I feel. Knowing what
I know now, about the course, I would travel anywhere
to take this course. The structure, material, presentation
etc, is by far the best and most challenging to prepare
any student for the LSAT. I would not only like to thank
you Vicki, but your entire staff on putting out a product
truly worthy of its cause."
J. M.
Long Island, NY
"PowerScore LSAT Test preparation is your BEST
means of learning how to get the score you want on the
LSAT."
Neal Byrd
Atlanta, GA
"As someone who has taught (high school, undergraduate,
and graduate school), worked as a professional developer,
and designed both curricula and standardized assessments,
I am acutely aware of how courses are structured. The
PowerScore LSAT class was both planned with the needs
of adult learners in mind and delivered from materials
that allowed me to integrate new concepts within earlier
ones. At the end of the 12-week course, I felt both
prepared and confident to meet my goal on the LSAT."
Frank Horstman
Baltimore, MD
"After practicing on my own using other self-help
books only to become even more discouraged about the
test I searched the web and found PowerScore. After
taking the full length course I felt extremely confident
that I would do well on the LSAT because I had actually
seen through the practice tests that the tips given
by PowerScore really work and do more than just familiarize
you with the LSAT like other materials. The combination
of class instruction and practice work that PowerScore
has created make this course well worth the money."
C. S.
Washington, DC
"My LSAT instructor was amazing. He taught the
class material and answered questions very well and
was understanding and patient with all of the students.
I really appreciated the fact that he shared his own
personal experience about the recent LSAT he had taken.
Also by the end of the course, he felt like an instructor
but also like a friend."
Irina Dosoretz
Atlanta, GA
"I was extremely pleased with the course and I
felt that it gave me the tools necessary to significantly
improve my score. The support and motivation that I
received from my instructor was invaluable and I would
highly recommend the course to anyone taking the LSAT."
Robyn Gould
Los Angeles, CA
"PowerScore's Full-length LSAT course is an excellent
experience! I would strongly recommend this course to
anyone considering the LSAT. The course really broke
down the elements in the LSAT and forced the students
to understand each and every type of question. Our instructor
was incredibly helpful in making this test seem less
formidable!"
Anne Khatcheressian
Tysons Corner, VA
"I attended the PowerScore full-length course.
The course was very intensive, extensive, and the instructor
very helpful. The workload was very challenging but
gave excellent practice. The material was presented
thoroughly and answered many of the questions I had
at the beginning of the course. I was impressed with
the manner in which the material was presented and would
highly recommend it for anyone looking for help in the
LSAT."
Alvin Wong
Toronto, Canada
"I took the full-length PowerScore LSAT course
after being incredibly impressed with the material,
structure, and instructor for the PowerScore LSAT weekend
course. Once again, I cannot express how happy I was
with the material and the instructor in the full-length
course. John is an OUTSTANDING instructor, combining
a through understanding of the material with a much
appreciated sense of humor. He engaged all participants
and made sure everyone was clear on the material before
he moved on, frequently asking and answering questions
to clarify points. He inspires his students to achieve
their personal best and motivates them to work on any
shortcomings. I have nothing but high praise for my
instructor and the PowerScore material."
Bill Primavera
New York City, NY
"On the first practice test, I got a 154. Three
months later, on the real test, I got a 170. Much of
that improvement was in the games section. I barely
could get through three of the games when I started
the course (and was routinely frustrated); on the June
test, I got every question right except one. While the
PowerScore strategies were extremely helpful, I can't
stress enough the importance of practicing them often
on the homework. The more practice games you do, the
easier (and more enjoyable) the section becomes."
Judy H.
Washington, DC
"PowerScore gave me the tools I need to be successful
on the LSAT. This class along with hard work will make
the difference between me being average and great."
Jerad English
Evanston, IL
"The instructor and the simulated practice tests
are what really stood out in this course. I am also
completely satisfied with the preparation theory PowerScore
uses. I was very calm during the LSAT, and I felt in
complete control the whole time. I went from a 156 to
a 169."
Eric H.
Dallas, TX
"I think it was a great course, it went beyond
what I had expected from it. The instructor took interest
in everyone's weak points and really worked and helped
everyone, even beyond his working time. I went up 15
points from my first test. I recommend this course to
anyone looking for some serious improvement."
Salman Ahmed
New Brunswick, NJ
"Without a doubt I recommend PowerScore's LSAT
prep to anybody who wants to get into law school. I
went up 15 points from the first practice test to the
actual test. I definitely would not have had the motiviation
to study on my own and improve my score this much without
this class."
Christina Demakopoulos
Washington, DC
"I would say this is a great course for learning
about the LSAT. The teachers were very helpful and were
often willing to stay beyond the time that the course
was scheduled to end."
Michael Castelli
Hartford, CT
"Mark, our instructor was very patient as well
as being extremely knowledgeable. From the first practice
test to the last one, I went up 19 points."
Felicia Farace
Berkeley, CA
"I feel very lucky for taking this course and not
having spent my money on other more 'popular' LSAT prep
programs. It was very organized and my instructor was
one of the best teachers I have ever had. Thank you!"
Ana Lopez
Miami, FL
"Before taking the course, I was comfortable with
most of the material on the LSAT, and was able to score
very well on practice tests (high 160's). The PowerScore
course helped me learn to tackle the most difficult
LSAT questions quickly and efficiently. Thanks to this
targeted practice, and the extra confidence that gave
me on test day, I was able to achieve a really excellent
score (high 170's) on the real thing."
Cynthia Robertson
Tysons Corner, VA
"This
class was superb. Well worth every penny. As opposed
to other LSAT classes the PowerScore test taking techniques
were indispensable. The material was extensive and the
two months were enough to help master them."
Job Joseph
Houston, TX
"I took the course in Brooklyn after a former PowerScore
student recommended it to me. I found that it greatly
helped me prepare for the exam. The material was well
organized but it wouldn't have been much help if it
wasn't for my instructor. I am extremely greatful for
him and could not have hoped for a better teacher."
Anna Nechayev
Brooklyn, NY
"I am a procrastinator and lack motivation for
studying, so, the full-length LSAT course really helped
aid me with my studies and it gave me direction on how
to study. I would highly recommend this course for those
who need some extra insight and incentive for studying."
Anika Guerrero
Houston, TX
"I had such a great experience taking the LSAT
course with PowerScore. My instructor knows the test
so well and his experience was invaluable. I am shooting
for a score in the mid to high 170's and without him,
I believe it would have been impossible. What I was
most concerned about was taking a course that was not
really suited to the obsessive compulsive, hungry, war-ready
mindset of high scorer. Alas, I was not disappointed
with my instructor or the class we had. He really encouraged
me to keep working harder and harder and offered personal
advice from his own experiences as a top LSAT scorer.
He is such a great teacher and brought humor and fun
to the class. What I found most impressive was his ability
to break logic problems down in a way that was clear
and easily understood. He didn't hold anything back.
He took the daunting task of studying for the LSAT and
made it actually enjoyable.
When I first thought about taking a course, I arrogantly
thought that I wouldn't learn anything from it; I already
test well and studied logic and philosophical argumentation
through college. When I got a disappointing score after
studying on my own, I realized that simply to be competitive
at the top 5 or 10 law schools, you must take a course.
I did a little research and found the Powerscore Logic
Games Bible. It quickly blew every other test prep book
out of the water! My decision was made and there is
no question in my mind that PowerScore is the best course
out there. You guys are great!"
R. Enriquez
New York City, NY
"I could not be happier with the services provided
by PowerScore. I had an awesome instructor who really
went the extra mile to ensure that the entire class
stayed up to pace. I am so glad that I chose this course
to take out all of the ones that are available. PowerScore
is the least expensive course that I found in my search
but the value of the course is unbelievable. Patrick
went out of his to help me prepare for the LSAT and
I really got the feeling that he truly cares about the
people that he is teaching. It was nice to feel that
I had someone rooting for me the Saturday that I took
the test. I am so pleased that I made the right choice!"
Hayley Yaun
Atlanta, GA
"Excellent and clearly analytical approach to the
material. The course and concepts are well-structured
and well-developed. Our instructor, Jonathan, was top-notch
and was extremely competent. Especially provided prescient
insights regarding the mental framework needed to 'attack'
the test."
Patrick Remillard
New Brunswick, NJ
"The instructor was great. The course is full of
material that will help you to score better on the LSAT.
The LSAT is a beast; powerscore helps you to tame that
beast."
David Reid
Provo, UT
"I
had a wonderful experience taking the full length LSAT
class. Just from talking to friends and reviewing other
material, I know I made the right choice choosing PowerScore.
I hope that you take my tone and attitude very positively.
I can sincerely say that I would recommend this class
to ANYONE thinking of taking the LSAT. For me with an
engineering background with very few classes in philosophy
and English, I would have been in trouble had I not gone
through a rigorous class such as PowerScore's. I could
see from the first homework assignment that a great deal
of time, research, and money has gone into shaping this
class. Thank You."
Trey
Rainwater
Atlanta, GA
"PowerScore
did an excellent job preparing me for the LSAT. I was
hesitant to enroll with a company that I did not hear
much about, but I am very satisfied with my decision.
The books, instructors, and hotline all provide a comprehensive
package when preparing for such an important exam. The
course helped me greatly and I am already recommending
the course to many of my friends.
Thanks
PowerScore and I hope the secret of this company keeps
spreading rapidly."
Miten
Shah
Cornell University
"I
took the Princeton Review before the first time I took
the LSAT, I hated the course and the instructor was not
qualified to teach the course; needless to say I did not
score high enough to get into the schools of my choice.
After taking PowerScore I am confident that I learned
the skills to improve my score. The methods taught allowed
me to better understand the test and its components. My
instructor was awesome, very intelligent and always took
the time to answer questions or spend more time on an
unclear concept. I would highly recommend this class to
anyone preparing for the LSAT. Don't be fooled by the
Princeton Review, the company only sells itself by their
name."
Sandra
Urban
Philadelphia, PA
"This
class was great. I had previously taken an LSAT course
with another test group, but didn't improve because I
couldn't dedicate much time to it. But with PowerScore,
even when I was doing my homework, I felt compelled to
do better and it really showed. The instructor was the
best part. She was patient, yet demanding, and never failed
to fully explain the answers to a question. It is good
to know that amidst all the other courses out there with
their incessant publicity, but lack of interest in the
ultimate performance of their students, there can be such
a course found such as PowerScore. Thank you for all your
help and thank you as well to the people on the phones
at PowerScore, who are always reachable!"
Jennifer Keser
Wellesley College
"The
homework helped reinforce what I learned in class &
gave me a chance to do as many practice problems as I
wanted. Talking to friends who took other prep classes,
I feel that I was prepared much better for the test than
they were. I am very glad I took PowerScore. My instructor
was great!
Her
instruction was very clear and easy to understand. She
made sure everyone understood what was going on in class
& really wanted us to improve."
Alexa
Goransson
Washington, DC
"My
teacher was the best LSAT teacher out there! I have strongly
recommended this course to all my friends who need to
prepare for the LSAT. My score increased from a 151 to
a 162 by the end of the course. Overall this was a great
learning experience well worth the price. Thank you!"
Sabine
Michel
Miami, FL
"When
beginning my LSAT test prep, I purchased a book from another
well-known company (Kaplan) and to my dismay, it was not
very helpful. I found out about PowerScore through the
internet. Initially I was very nervous about signing up
because it almost sounded too good to be true. Because
PowerScore does not have the expensive overhead in each
city (as do the other companies), student tuition is spent
on extra hours of instruction. I liked the materials because
they were actually from the makers of the test. The homework
hotline was a very informative and valuable resource.
I am so glad I trusted my instincts and chose the better
value and quality course. "
Robin
DiBartolomeo
Washington, D.C.
"I
was initially scared about taking my LSAT preparation
through a course that I had never heard of. I wanted to
make sure that I received the best preparation possible
and had decided to use the Princeton Review or Kaplan
but am glad that I did not. PowerScore deserves to be
the leading LSAT preparation course in the industry. The
fact that it is a small, growing company allows students
to receive superior service and instruction from instructors
who have mastered and really understand the LSAT. I would
recommend it to anyone."
Scott Loughlin
Harvard Law School
"The
instructor was extremely knowledgeable and gave 110%
in teaching the class."
Chad Davis
Boston, MA
"My
instructor was excellent--active, involved and aware of
the various levels and difficulties of each student."
John
McDonald
Baltimore, MD
"The
course helped me better understand the LSAT and how to
approach taking the test. The day of the test I felt more
confident and ready to attack. My instructor was the best!
Not only had he been there and done that, he gave us practical
approaches and advice on dealing with the test questions.
And on top of that he had a great sense of humor! Thank
you, PowerScore, I could not have done it without you!"
Cassandra
Whitmore
Irvine, CA
"I
thought that the course was great and incredibly helpful.
On my first practice test, I received a 150 and on the
actual LSAT, I received a 161. My class was very small
and I thought that the intimate atmosphere and the amount
of individual attention was excellent."
Sarah
Dionisopoulos
Madison, WI
"The
instructor was amazing. She went beyond teaching the materials
and was willing to do anything that could make this whole
process easier. She was an actual attorney that went through
the rigorous admissions process not too long ago and served
as a valuable resource. I went into the test confident
- and for the LSAT that is enough said. I also improved
my score by at least 10 points. I would recommend the
class to anyone I know who plans on taking the LSAT. "
Frank
Cush
Washington, DC
The
course aided in my understanding of what to expect on
the LSAT...there were no surprises when I went to take
the test! I liked having actual questions from actual
tests. The instructor spent as much time as necessary
on any material that we did not understand, and was always
available for questions. I would definitely recommend
this course to others preparing for the LSAT. We had a
small class, enabling each of us to receive as much one
on one aid as we needed. And having class for 8 hours
a week guarantees at least 8 hours of studying per week.
You guys did an excellent job. Thanks for your help!
Alissa L. Van Horn
St. Joseph's University
From
the Powerscore LSAT course I gained a deeper understanding
of the LSAT. I was extremely impressed with the volume
of material with which I was presented. I believe the
course not only prepared me for the types of questions,
but for the apprehension of taking the LSAT. After seeing
LSAT problems for 2 months straight I fully knew what
to expect on the actual test. Although I was anxious the
day of the test I believe this course alleviated any doubts
I had about what I was to encounter on the LSAT. I encourage
anyone who is going to take the LSAT to take a prep course
and to practice as much as possible. Thank you.
Amy McCullough
Southeastern Oklahoma State University
After
having taken Princeton Review my score only improved by
3 points. After taking Powerscore my LSAT improved by
more than 12 points!

I
don't think I've ever given a rating of 100 on any survey.
But this course was a great value, it was professionally
organized, documented, and presented. I know it helped
me better understand what to expect when I took the LSAT.
I only wish I had done ALL the homework and sample tests
given.
Terry Garman
Georgetown University
"The
strengths of the course were a top-notch instructor and
excellently prepared lessons and homeworks taken from
real tests...I improved from a 146 on the first practice
test to a 167 on the October LSAT. It is only Nov. 20
and I have already been admitted early action to Georgetown,
and await more good news!"

Columbia University
"This
course was great because it devoted so much time to the
test itself. It gave us so many examples of REAL tests
used in the past, so when I went in to take the real thing
I was comfortable with the format completely. The methods
used were helpful, of course, but the real strength is
the repetition of content, in my mind...I would recommend
this class to anyone who needs to get into the LSAT frame
of mind."
Andrew Muehlbauer
University of Wisconsin-Madison
"The
volume and quality of materials was fantastic! I really
felt like I had a good grasp of the test by working
through all the homework problems and class work. I
felt like the instructors had a really strong grasp
of the LSAT concepts and they were pretty effective
in delivering the course material."
Sumana Kanubaddi
University of Chicago
"My
instructor did an outstanding job and was very knowledgeable
of the strategies, difficulties that students will face
etc. She has a nice demeanor and is a very natural teacher...I
thought the stategies were great and I know that my
score improved greatly as a result. I am very happy
that I took the course and probably without it, I would
be hard pressed to be admitted to the law school that
I would like to attend. Thank you very much!"
Matt
Outlaw
University of Michigan
"The
course is structured in such a way that I steadily got
more and more familiar with the contents of the exam and
as I got more familiar, I got more comfortable. Of course,
all the preparation in the world can't really get rid
of the test-day jitters, but at least I went in knowing
that I'd studied hard and that I had some powerful tools
for attacking the test. I went from a 151 (52nd percentile)
on the first practice test to a 169 (98th percentile)
on the actual exam."
Susannah Cox
Barnard College
"I
was extremely pleased with the course, and specifically,
the job done by my instructor. The intellectual rigor
of the class far exceeded the Princeton Review. The homework
assignments were very thorough and clearly articulated
key concepts. I would recommend this course to anyone
taking the LSAT. While other courses emphasize gimmicks,
this course teaches the logical principles tested on the
exam."
Atman Trivedi
Stanford University
"When
I took the first PowerScore practice test, I scored a
135. I said to my instructor 'Am I this dumb?' 'No,' he
answered, 'you are just unfamiliar with the test.' I scored
a 164 on the actual LSAT exam. That was how powerful the
PowerScore instructor was. Besides knowing the LSAT inside
and out and giving fabulous lectures, he knew the students
well and how each progressed through the preparatory lessons.
I fully recommend PowerScore if you plan to take the LSAT.
You would not run a marathon unless you were prepared,
would you?"
Benjamin Kent
University of Minnesota
"Taking
advice from a student that can compare PowerScore to other
courses, such as Princeton Review, which is the course
that I previously took, I can honestly tell you that Powerscore
is worth the very little extra it costs in comparison...I
am extremely grateful for having taken the course and
hope that you might consider it highly."
Daniel Renart
George Washington University
"The
instructor for my section was absolutely phenomenal. She
obviously understood the LSAT and helped everyone to understand
it better. In addition, because of the extensive time
I spent on homework and practice tests, I felt relaxed
going in and remained calm throughout the duration of
the test."
Elizabeth Mesplou
University of Oregon
"I
cannot imagine not having taken this course. My
instructor was a genius--he was not only able to answer
our questions but he could tell us why we were thinking
one way and how to start thinking another way. And even
if I wasn't going to law school I feel as though I got
an incredible education out of this course, along with
a 15 point increase."
Michelle Hayes
Macalester College
"This
course is a must for anyone who is interested in taking
the LSAT. Friends of mine have taken Kaplan and didn't
have nearly as many class hours and their instructors
weren't nearly as prepared."
Jeff Sorem
Yale University
"Thank
you, thank you, thank you!!! If it weren't for PowerScore
I could never have done so well. I am so happy I took
your course--it was more than worth the cost and time.
I really appreciate everything you taught me and thank
you for boosting my confidence. I couldn't have done it
without you! Thanks again!"
Amy Kohanek
St. Cloud State University
"I had very little confidence in my ability to perform
well on the LSAT, owing to my dislike of standardized
tests. But PowerScore changed that. With each homework
assignment and practice exam, my ability to rationalize
and react to real LSAT questions increased and my level
of confidence rose as well. I raised my LSAT score far
beyond my original expectations to a 164. My instructor
was unmatched, and took a genuine personal interest in
my success."
Steve Coon
University of Minnesota
"After
thoroughly checking out all of the test prep companies,
PowerScore was the obvious choice. Once I was in class,
the content of the course and the level of instruction
greatly exceeded even my own high expectations. I went
from a 143 on my first test all the way up to a 159 on
my last test. I can't tell you how grateful I am. Without
the help of PowerScore there is no way I'd be going to
law school. I'd recommend this course to anyone thinking
about the LSAT. Thanks again."
Alfred Peterson
University of Alaska
"I
currently have opportunities at the best schools: I got
into NYU, Columbia, Duke, Emory, Georgetown. I got a huge
scholarship at Duke...I will tell everyone I know who
even thinks about taking an LSAT prep course about the
excellent experience I have had with PowerScore. Thanks
again."
Anika Rennie
University of Maryland
"I
thought the PowerScore class was very effective and useful.
I increased my score by more than 10 points since I started
(going from below 160 to 168). The class was well organized
and having material from real, previously administered
LSATs was extremely valuable. I would recommend this class
to anyone thinking of taking the LSAT."
Renae Bailey
Northwestern University
"The
PowerScore LSAT Course was one of the most positive experiences
in my academic career...I can say without a doubt that
my LSAT score was substantially higher than what it would
have been had I not taken the course. Thank you, PowerScore!"
Mark Gaughan
University of Minnesota
"Once
again, I want to thank you for all the help you provided.
I have sent my LSAT score with this letter so that you
can confirm the success of your program. After taking
my first practice LSAT, I became worried I would not be
able to get into any good law schools let alone one of
my choice. My PowerScore instructor explained to me that
with hard work and the course material I would be able
to improve my score dramatically. I didn't believe him
but I still made the effort. Two months and a fifteen-point
increase later (initial practice LSAT score 149, actual
LSAT score 164) I realized the truth of his words. PowerScore
is a first-rate program. A prospective law student would
be a fool not to take the course. I imagine the only reason
why law school-bound students take other courses is due
to ignorance. While I was taking the course, I guarded
the PowerScore name like a secret that I would not tell
the enemy. I didn't want other students to take the course
and get the results I was getting. That would skew the
LSAT scores and make it harder for me to enter law school.
Now that my law school journey is complete, I feel that
it is my duty to tell everyone about this excellent course
and put the other programs out of business. Price-wise
and time-wise, PowerScore is a steal compared to its competitors.
If the class was the only service provided by PowerScore,
then I would have rated the program as only the best in
its class. However, the supplementary services (personal
statement assistance, telephone problem solving service,
and general question assistance) make PowerScore a one-of-a-kind
business where the customer is treated like a king. Like
a king. Thank you so much PowerScore."
Peer Segelke
Washington and Lee University
"I
think that anyone who is SERIOUS about getting into law
school should invest in an LSAT preparation course. After
all, this test is one of the major factors determining
your acceptance into a law school. In choosing PowerScore,
I made a great investment in my future. My instructor
was very patient and clear and he taught me what I needed
to know in order to do well on the LSAT. Not only was
the instruction excellent and enthusiastic, there were
outstanding resources outside of the classroom--an LSAT
hotline, mounds of homework, and supplemental exercises
(not to mention four practice LSAT exams). With the help
of my instructor at PowerScore, I improved 12 points on
the LSAT. Without PowerScore, I wouldn’t have been able
to do that and I probably wouldn’t be getting into any
law schools in the near future!"
Shelly Hilliker
University of St. Thomas
"PowerScore
took the mystery out of the LSAT. By breaking down the
questions into different categories the course exposed
the techniques used by the testmakers. My instructor did
a great job keeping the class interesting while exposing
the trends in LSAT questions. He was also willing to give
me any personal attention I needed to get the best score
possible. I wish some of my U of M profs cared about my
success as much my PowerScore instructor did!"
Pat Markey
University of Minnesota
"The
course was clear and effective. I had previously taken
Kaplan and was not impressed. PowerScore was definitely
worth the time and money. I recommend this course to all
those that plan to take the LSAT. The homework and practice
exams really emphasize key strategies needed to be successful.
"
Elizabeth Player
University of Delaware
"PowerScore
is the most comprehensive course offered as a mode of
LSAT Preparation...my instructor was articulate and very
knowledgeable and I credit PowerScore with a significant
improvement from my first practice test to my actual LSAT
score."
Erika Lazar
Brown University
"The
PowerScore full length course helped me to understand
what the LSAT was about. I didn't just learn tricks or
secrets, I learned to understand each individual section
of the test and the best way to attack it. My instructor
clearly new the material he was teaching and presented
it effectively. On test day I knew what I had to do and
having PowerScore behind me eliminated almost all of my
jitters."
Jale Lowery
Sonoma State University
"My
teacher did an EXCELLENT job. I am extremely thankful
that I decided to take the course through PowerScore."
Kathleen Harrison
University of Maryland Full-length
LSAT Course Student
"It
would have been impossible to have reached the level of
understanding that I had attained by the completion of
my course had I not taken the course. No studying on one's
own would have ever produced this level of understanding
and guaranteed this amount of quality study time. By the
time I took the LSAT, my brain was fully immersed in the
LSAT and my thoughts were all of how to correctly and
quickly answer the questions. My instructor provided a
level of comfort in our classes that allowed for us all
to truly benefit from the classroom experience. I am very
glad that I made the decision to take this course and
that I went with PowerScore over the larger more commercial
groups. I don't think that I would have had quite the
same results with them as I did with PowerScore."
Kristi Reeve
University of Texas-Austin
"I
really felt the full-length course was worth the money.
It really helped me get in the mindset for answering the
questions and it helped me develop the pattern of thinking
that was necessary in order to be competitive. The course
was well structured and the course materialswere invaluable.
It was great to take tests throughout the entirety of
the course and get a feel for my progress as I went through
the course. It really was a good experience, and I valued
the test taking skills and advice I received from the
instructor."
Leota Tennant
University of Virginia
"We
had a wonderful instructor. She made the class fun and
she knew her stuff."
Marsha Kraycir
Eastern Michigan University
"I
took Princeton Review's course prior to the February exam
this year. I ended up going down in my score when I actually
took the exam compared to my first test. That course was
very preliminary and didn't fully explain many of the
games sections. PowerScore was great because they focused
on the entire exam, and attempted to help us maximize
in all areas. I believe that the course is worth it for
the games help alone!"
Shanti
Mulpuru
Washington, DC
"The
instructor was very helpful. He explained everything thoroughly,
always made himself accessible, and would take extra time
to go over materials at the students' request."
Mary Ann Call
Ohio University
"Your
course was Excellent! Our instructor was quickly able
to identify the errors in our logic and steer us in the
right direction. I was very impressed with the instructor's
understanding of the subject material. Powerscore was
vital to my success on the test! Thank you!"
Eileen
M
"I
thought this course was an excellent value for the money
- it was cheaper than most other courses, yet offered
more classroom time and instructional materials...I had
a great instructor, and I would definitely recommend this
course to my friends or other prospective law school applicants.
Thanks!"
Claire
Peterson
University of Notre Dame
"This
course really helped me get familiar with the test and
some tricks and strategies for how to approach the questions.
Thanks to Julia, the best instructor, I was able to receive
outside help and get in a few laughs during the class.
She really helped the class improve their test scores."
Cheryl Alterman
University of Michigan
"Before
I took the course I had no real idea of what to expect,
the PowerScore course gave me the needed practice for,
and insight to, the LSAT. My greatest help came from the
four full-length, timed, actual LSAT's that were administered
through PowerScore."
Beau J Ferguson
University of Texas-Arlington
"I
found the preparation materials provided by PowerScore
to be particularly helpful. I had tried studying with
other books and prep materials, but the question styles
were not the same as the style of the real LSAT questions
that PowerScore uses. Studying with real questions makes
me feel better prepared to take this test. I also liked
the PowerScore course because it wasn't just a bunch of
lectures, we had actual discussions about the questions
and answers, etc. which is far more helpful than being
talked at."
Amanda Thompson
Macalester College
"Using
the hotline was most beneficial to me. Having an instructor
on hand to give a detailed explanation of the question
is invaluable when preparing for this test. If I had to
wait until class to be given further instruction, I probably
would have forgotten to ask my question."
Jessica Gary
Washington, DC
"To
ace the LSAT you have to understand the LSAT, and to accomplish
that the Powerscore program was indispensable. It really
made a huge difference in an absolutely critical test."
Adam Cook
University of Dallas
"By
taking the PowerScore course, I was able to break down
the LSAT and see what were my strengths and weaknesses.
There was a lot of material each week which was very helpful.
Also, my instructor was a great teacher--he made the class
fun."
Rachel
Horne
University of Wisconsin-Madison
"The
class was fantastic. I really want to thank my instructor
for helping me so much. I went from a 159 on my first
test to a 169 on the actual LSAT which was 6 points higher
than I had hoped for. Excellent job! I've already referred
a couple of people to your program. "
Richard Hoopis
Emory University
"The
volume and quality of materials was fantastic! I really
felt like I had a good grasp of the test by working through
all the homework problems and class work. I felt like
the instructors had a really strong grasp of the LSAT
concepts and they were pretty effective in delivering
the course material."
Sumana Kanubaddi
University of Chicago
"Insightful
and comprehensive. A cut above."
Trevor
Sutton
Stanford University
"I
found the course very helpful, especially since aside
from the great amount of material we worked through every
week and the detailed discussions we had about individual
test questions, the environment was also very friendly
and a lot of fun, making the course something to look
forward to rather than dread. Thanks!"
Eva
Hampl
Washington, DC
"Understanding
what you are up against with the LSAT is an important
part of mastering the test. Going through the course
broke down the major components so that on test day
they were recognizable pieces of a larger puzzle. I
especially appreciated the full-length practice exams
which helped build test endurance. I would highly recommend
this course."
Kari Buhmiller
University of Montana
"I
was very impressed with PowerScore. The course covered
critical, core concepts necessary to understand the LSAT.
Through the lessons and the homework I was able to understand
what the questions were really looking for and how best
to attack the LSAT. I definitely credit this course for
improving my LSAT score 15 points. Thanks to the course,
the law schools which were once my 'dream schools' are
now within reach."
Ryan Matsuno
George Washington University
"I
had a great instructor who presented everything in a manner
I could understand. I felt I got an incredible amount
out of the class, and it helped me raise my score 15 points.
I would suggest everyone take this course."
Miles Hoffman
George Washington University
PowerScore
is a great course! The number of hours and homework will
definitely help anyone. I have improved my skills and
understanding. Although it is solely up to an individual
to get the result he/she wants, PowerScore contributes
to a personal success without a doubt. I was very pleased
with the instructor. She was very professional and knowledgeable.
The concepts were explained in details and reiterated
many times for successful memorization. All herein mentioned
makes PowerScore a great course! I recommend PowerScore
to all my friends."
Anya Kucheryavenko
Goshen College
"My
experiences in Boston were excellent and PowerScore greatly
improved my score. I ended up going up 15 points which
was quite amazing and I owe it all to PowerScore."
Caitlin DeLaney
Hollins University, B.A.
University of Florida, M.A.
I
strongly recommend this course to anyone preparing for
the LSAT. After the many hours spent in class and doing
the homework, I felt very prepared for the exam. The instructor
knows the teaching material very well and was always available
to answer questions or concerns. Power Score was recommended
to me by a friend and I truly thank her for that.
Evangelia Katsari
Georgetown University
"This
was an incredible course. I have no complaints. I think
it was the sheer volume of problems that helped more than
anything else. The proctored exams definitely prepared
me for the actual test day. My instructor was wonderful
also. I must say, it was a great course."
Julian K. Petty
Howard University
"The
class was really really good. My score improved dramatically
and I wasn't even up-to-date with my homework! The logic
reasoning was my weakness but now it is getting better...My
instructor was great--he knew how to teach! He was the
best. I took another prep course but I wasn't satisfied.
This class blew away the competition. Thanx, PowerScore."
"I am so happy that I chose PowerScore over
the other courses offered! PowerScore helped me see the LSAT as a very
structured exam that could be tackled effectively. My score went up tremendously
once I understood the logic of the test! I recommend this course to anyone
who is considering taking the LSAT. Also, the small classes helped in
allowing everyone to have time to understand each and every concept!"
