LSAT Prep Course Options in Albany

“Unlike other LSAT prep courses which try and teach tricks to answer LSAT questions or how to make your best guess, TestMasters teaches you how to find the correct answer every time. They teach you why that answer is right and every other answer is clearly wrong. They don’t take any shortcuts in their teaching methods and instead teach you how to think like the test writers. I loved going to my class and this made studying that much easier. My instructor not only took time to answer all of our questions, she encouraged us to challenge her thinking, until it was clear in all of our minds why the correct answer was correct. I ended up raising my score 30 points because TestMasters taught me how to think like the LSAT.”

“TestMasters in general and my class instructor in particular have my undying thanks. I could not have gotten a 178 on the LSAT without TestMasters. From little things like the fact that an either/or construct implies ‘or both’ to bigger things like the proper way to diagram sufficient/necessary statements, the things I learned from the classes and materials were absolutely instrumental to my LSAT success.

My instructor was a great guy and at least as a great a teacher. He was appropriately serious but maintained a sense of humor to leaven what can be a very stressful, anxious process of preparation. He was thorough but not ponderous and always made sure to address any lingering questions. TestMasters is an intensive course—6 hours of class a week could be rough, but he was able to make sure that the course was intensive without being intense. I feel lucky that he was my instructor.

More generally, the TestMasters course is very well put-together. The lessons are clear and the wealth of prep materials is astounding. I took the LSAT twice, and had more than enough practice questions with which to prepare for each. The strategies, tips, and advice are never less than spot-on and made a world of difference. I knew going in that it would require a high degree of self-motivation, but TestMasters makes it easy to apply oneself fully to the task.

I had several friends who insisted I take TestMasters. Having scored a 166 on my first prep test (without having done any prep), I was hesitant to put in the time and money. I am SO glad that I listened to them and made the investment.”

“I took the TestMasters self-paced online LSAT prep course and could not have had a better experience. Everything in the course was very well organized. Robin Singh, the instructor in the videos, is a genius and teaches the simplest ways to approach these questions. From the time of my first diagnostic to my actual LSAT, I improved 10 points! I know firsthand how daunting it is to choose a course, but I can confidently recommend TestMasters to anyone looking for LSAT prep. If you utilize the insane amount of resources they provide, you will surely improve! Loved the course!!”

“The TestMasters formula works; what you put in is what you get out. TestMasters offers you everything you need to improve your score—fantastic course materials, instructors, and practice tests with comprehensive explanations. However, there are no shortcuts in the process. When your instructor tells you in the first class that you need to spend 15-20 hours a week studying outside of class, they’re not lying. You have to be committed to see improvement. The good news is that if you are committed, TestMasters offers everything and anything you need to achieve your goals.”

“When I decided to take the LSAT, I was initially torn between taking a prep course and just buying a book and studying on my own. I was unsure about spending so much money on a prep course and didn’t know if I would have the time. Now, I can confidently say that signing up for TestMasters was the best investment I could have made. My score increased 13 points from my first diagnostic. The classes and homework are logical and comprehensive. Even with one class catering to students of different levels, TestMasters provides so many additional problems and diagnostics that you can really tailor the course to what you need. Not only did my score increase significantly, but after taking the course, I was noticeably calmer and more confident when taking diagnostics and, ultimately, when I took the actual LSAT.”

“When I decided to pursue law school, I was nervous about the LSAT because, in general, I did not perform well on standardized tests and I knew nothing about this particular test. My friend recommended I sign up for the TestMasters course because he did so and had fantastic results. Thankfully, I listened to him. I was crushed after I scored a 145 on my first diagnostic because I thought my dream of attending law school was over. I thought it would be impossible to achieve my goal of 160, and I considered giving up. However, my TestMasters instructor explained to me that the first test means nothing and told me about success stories of students improving by 20+ points, which made me believe that with TestMasters a 160 was still possible. Not only did I reach my goal, I far exceeded it. I am now receiving scholarships at schools that I first labeled as reaches, and I am a competitive applicant at schools that I used to only dream about attending. My 23-point increase is indicative of the incredibly effective methods taught by TestMasters to answer all of the different types of questions on the test as well as the dedicated and highly knowledgeable instructors.”

“I came into my TestMasters course concerned whether it was even possible to improve to the score I wanted after taking my first diagnostic. I was immediately impressed, however, by the organization of the course and the immense knowledge of my instructor. He had the ability to easily explain even the most complex and difficult concepts in a way that everyone could understand. It is obvious that TestMasters rigorously trains its instructors so they are well-equipped to answer any and every question, and I was very grateful for this. I quickly found my confidence increasing as I attended each class and worked through the homework. TestMasters gives each student an immense amount of material that is presented in an effective, well-organized way. I found the diagnostic tests extremely helpful because they really simulate the test day environment. The day of the real test, I felt extremely prepared and confident because of TestMasters. I was committed to improving my score and I would not have done nearly as well without the course. TestMasters provides its students with the knowledge, strategies, and materials that with hard work enable any dedicated test taker to succeed. I would recommend it to anyone taking the LSAT.”

“As someone who typically studies independently, I was hesitant to enroll in a prep course to prepare for the LSAT, but I felt that the structure of a class that meets multiple times a week, assigns homework, and provides practice tests would be beneficial, especially since I was working full-time. A friend of mine recommended TestMasters, so after a little bit of research I enrolled and could not have made a better decision.

I hadn’t had much exposure to the content of the LSAT prior to registering for TestMasters. I had seen a sample question or two before, but I never tried my hand at a practice test prior to my first day of class with TestMasters. After going in cold and seeing my results, I knew I had a lot to learn. I developed a tremendous appreciation for the TestMasters curriculum after just a couple of lessons, as it is extremely well-designed and is meant to teach you all the skills you need from the ground up. Each additional lesson builds on the last and ultimately prepares you to tackle any type of logical reasoning or reading comprehension question you could possibly encounter on test day. In addition, TestMasters provides so much course content that buying additional prep books or study guides is a waste of money. As a TestMasters student, you have at your disposal thousands of practice questions, all of which appeared on actual LSAT exams, as well as detailed video and written explanations for these questions. Furthermore, TestMasters has instructors standing by through the ‘Academic Support’ section of its website who will answer any questions you have about the material within 24 hours. The course also provides students with full-length practice tests and detailed analyses of their performance. This was crucial to my preparation, as it gave me a great deal of insight into my own progress, outlining exactly what I had mastered and exactly what I still needed to work on.

In addition to the TestMasters curriculum, I owe much of my success to my in-class instructor, who was nothing short of phenomenal as a teacher and mentor. She had a wealth of knowledge and was always ready to break down any difficult question or concept that was giving us trouble. Her patience and poise were critical in helping us become comfortable with the content of the LSAT and what acing the exam would require of us. It was clear she wanted us to succeed and believed that we could, and I cannot thank her enough for all of her support.

I had a fantastic experience with TestMasters and I strongly recommend it to anyone willing to work hard and take advantage of all of the resources that this intensive and comprehensive course makes available to its students. If you put in the time and effort, enrolling in a TestMasters LSAT course is worth every penny.”

“I took TestMasters with Chloe Hurley in preparation for the LSAT. When I first started, it was the first time I had ever seen the test and my score was a disappointing 143. With the help of TestMasters, I was able to score a 167 on the real thing after only twelve weeks of study. Chloe was consistently energetic and upbeat even though the class was from 7 to 10 at night and she made the course as interesting as possible, even through some especially tedious and frustrating material. She consistently answered all my questions, no matter how annoying or repetitive they were, in the most thorough ways possible and never made me feel dumb (even though sometimes I probably was). In the rare instance that she didn’t quite know the best explanation for something, she would go out of her way to find out the answer and relay it to the class, She was great and I would highly recommend her class to anyone preparing for the LSAT.

Beyond that, I was able to consistently watch refresher videos of Robin Singh teaching the lessons online, which was always helpful, especially after a particular exhausting evening or a particularly difficult concept that needed a little more practice. Beyond that, the online academic support is literally the best. It’s like having a tutor without the extra cost – any question I had, they consistently made sure to answer in the best way possible. One moment stands out: there was this one instructor that recognized I was being lazy in my formulating of questions because I just wanted it explained to me without actually thinking why I got the wrong answer. She told me “I’m going to push back and I want you to explain what your actually thinking on this was”. At first I was irked at this because as we all know when you don’t understand something, it’s easy (and less embarrassing ) to just say explain it to me, but after a few times of this, I would get halfway through trying to explain my thought process and literally say “OH, that’s where I went wrong” and I can’t be more appreciative to her for making me work harder. This class obviously requires work (a lot of it), no one’s going to be doing it for you, but if you put the time and effort in, the support system is there to guide you through it and help you get the best score you can.”

“I absolutely loved the TestMasters course! Our instructor Hailey Evans encouraged everyone in the class to participate and provided individualized feedback and answers to questions, which, in turn, enabled her to really cater to each of our strengths and weaknesses. We also learned from each other’s questions as well as from the planned lessons and course materials. This process of learning as a group demonstrated for me how well the TestMasters methodology truly worked. Although we each came in with a different way of looking at questions and a different degree of preexisting aptitude, the skills and tools that we were learning could be systematically applied to any given question by each of us.

I personally felt that this course made two major contributions to my test taking.The first was that when I chose an answer, I almost always knew with confidence exactly why that was the correct answer, as opposed to just feeling as though it was. The second contribution was the sheer volume of questions that we completed and reviewed, both on our own and in class, within the framework of given lessons. I became so familiar with the way that the LSAT writers structure their various questions and the common types of ’sucker choice’ answers, that I quickly began to see red flags in answer choices that I otherwise might have had a much harder time eliminating. This allowed me to get through the test questions more quickly while at the same time getting fewer wrong answers.”

“Signing up for TestMasters is one of the best decisions I made with regard to the LSAT. The program is extremely thorough and the materials are extensive beyond what I could have imagined. The online dashboard was invaluable. I can’t imagine taking the LSAT without having prepared through TestMasters. My teacher was incredibly knowledgeable and always able to answer any questions I had. TestMasters is the best of the best, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality LSAT course. I couldn’t have gotten the score I got without TestMasters!”

“I initially heard about TestMasters through my older brother who took the course and scored a 172 on his LSAT. He recommended it highly so I figured it was worth trying. I started out by getting a 164 on my first diagnostic, but, after meeting my instructor, Amelia Brasher, I was optimistic that my score could improve. She was intelligent, energetic, fun, and, most importantly, genuinely interested in seeing us all do well.

The classes were well designed and incredibly effective. They taught all of the necessary methods and tools for taking the test. The homeworks, while often extremely long, really helped solidify the lessons that were taught in the preceding classes. Furthermore, the TestMasters website was an essential resource for additional study material.

By the end of the course my diagnostic scores were routinely in the mid-170s. I felt that the TestMasters program had adequately prepared me for the actual LSAT. By the time the test day rolled around I felt comfortable and confident, having practiced this day so many times with TestMasters. I ended up getting a 179, much better than I ever could have imagined on my first day in the program.

I owe a tremendous amount of my success to TestMasters for providing me with all of the tools that are necessary in order to do well on the LSAT. They made sure I was well prepared for the test, as well as the test day itself. I highly recommend this fantastic service. If you want to improve your score, and are willing to put in the necessary work to do that, then take TestMasters. You won’t be sorry.”
