Details on Course Cycle

(1) DIAGNOSTIC TEST & ORIENTATION
The Diagnostic is an actual LSAT administered under test conditions. The test is followed by a brief introduction to the course.

(2) THEORY MODULE:
The first phase of the course provides specific techniques for the solution of every type of LSAT question. The goal is to build an understanding of the LSAT that evolves from the particular to the general. Specific LSAT questions are organized within a single Casebook entitled The Deconstruction. Questions in the Casebook are classified by the issue. As specific cases are presented and solved, general approaches are developed for each question type.   {click here for more information on The Binary Solution Casebook} 

(3) APPLICATION MODULE:
The second phase of the course provides immersive practice through timed test-taking. Each test is followed by a live review of the day's test as well as an online Webinar Review. Reviews may run from 1-4 hours in total, depending on the number of student questions. Each term offers a minimum of 8  proctored tests.  Class length increases in order to provide time for both administering a full LSAT ( 3 hrs & 15 minutes) and reviewing the day's LSAT. Students are encouraged to complete all available LSATS.
