LSAT Prep Course Options in Gresham

“I feel that the TestMasters LSAT course was an excellent investment. Before signing up, I asked a number of friends in law school whether a prep course was worth the investment (as compared to independent study), and if so which one. The friends I asked surveyed their peers and I got quite a few responses. Most of the responders suggested taking a course, and of those, the vast majority recommended TestMasters. In fact, a number of people expressed dissatisfaction with courses they had taken through other companies, but I received no such reports regarding TestMasters. I chose to take the TestMasters course rather than study independently, and I am glad that I did for a number of reasons. First, the course required that I study much more that I would have on my own; essentially it offered a sort of imposed discipline. Second there were a countless number of actual LSAT questions available through TestMasters. Third, the course materials went way beyond practice problems. I learned what types of problems I would be more or less likely to face on test day, and strategies for dealing with the different types of questions. Fourth, the diagnostic tests prepared me mentally for the actual test day—I was a nervous wreck when I took the first diagnostic, but by the end of the course, I was so familiar with the test and the test-taking environment (which TestMasters does a very effective job of simulating) that I felt calm and collected on test day. Finally, my TestMasters instructor offered several pieces of ‘last-minute’ advice to the class in the week immediately before the test that, although not intuitive, proved very effective at keeping me calm, well-rested, and confident in the days and hours leading up to the actual LSAT.

The TestMasters course prepared me not only for the LSAT, but for law school as well. I did not have much exposure to concepts such as argument structure or logical reasoning as an undergraduate science major. However, as a result of the course, I am now confident in my logical reasoning and argument deconstruction skills, which will surely serve me well in law school.”

“I went into my TestMasters class absolutely terrified. My performance on the first diagnostic test made me doubt whether I even wanted to be a lawyer. But about halfway through the class I realized I was making significant headway thanks to the hands-on instruction my TestMasters instructor gave me. It was a challenging and frustrating class at times, but in the weeks before the LSAT I became calm and confident, and as a result of all the work I did with TestMasters, my actual LSAT score amazed me—I thought I might improve 8 or 10 points, but I improved 18. Now I am getting letters from schools like UCLA, Duke, and the University of Virginia congratulating me on my score and inviting me to apply for free. I never thought I’d be one to write one of these testimonials, but I never could have done this without TestMasters. TestMasters buys the rights to all previous LSAT questions and uses those in class and on the homework to teach students what they can really expect to see on the LSAT. By the end of the class, we had seen every LSAT question in existence and spent 6 hours each week with our instructor. If I can give future LSAT takers a piece of advice, it’s to remain calm, trust that you will learn the material in time, and take TestMasters over other courses because it’s more than worth the money and the time you put into it.”

“There are three ways in which TestMasters has created an immensely valuable course that rises above the competition. They offer unique and effective problem-solving strategies that enable you to be accurate and swift. They provide you with the best available materials specifically designed to teach, not just throw problem after problem at you. And they have the best instructors, who take the unique strategies and comprehensive materials, and set out to make sure you personally are understanding the concepts conveyed in the lessons. That combination cannot be beat.

Also, my instructor was phenomenal. He not only completely understands the test, but also knows how to explain difficult concepts in ways other people can understand. He’s taught so many people that he can anticipate where you might have a hard time, and goes the extra mile to individualize your preparation to make sure you understand everything. I could not have asked for a better instructor.”

“If you are serious about maximizing your LSAT score, TestMasters is by far your best option. Before choosing TestMasters, I consulted numerous students who had taken other courses, both national and local. Looking back on my experience, there are a few specific reasons why I was so impressed. First off, their research into the test is unmatched among competitors, and this is proven by the exceptional material they provide. Secondly, like a good coach, they push you to practice and prepare endlessly. You will NEVER run out of TestMasters material to prepare with. Finally, my instructor had a remarkable ability to explain problems logically while connecting with students on a personal basis. With his off-the-charts intelligence, his explanations made everything easy to comprehend. I could continue with more, but plain and simple the return on my TestMasters investment has been exponential. There is a reason why I have recommended TestMasters to multiple law school applicants and every single one of them has thanked me profusely afterwards. TestMasters is truly the premier option for LSAT preparation.”

“Just last week, after months of studying for the LSAT and writing my applications, I was accepted to law school. An amazing accomplishment that I believe would not have been anywhere close to possible without the support of TestMasters. Four years ago I took the LSAT not once, but twice, and could not for the life of me score higher than a 145. I bought test prep books and scrounged for materials but what those books could not teach me was how. How the heck can I figure this out? My TestMasters teachers showed me how. They were patient, experienced, and comforting. They believed in me and taught me what I needed to know and in a way that made the whole process seem less intimidating. When I received my score I was ecstatic, to say the least. Honestly, I didn’t know I had it in me—but TestMasters did.”

“When I enrolled in TestMasters, I had high hopes: I wanted to score at least a 170 on my last diagnostic. I wasn’t sure if I could accomplish my goal, but I was determined to give it my best shot. Through the grueling practice of weekly classes, diagnostics, diagnostic review sessions, and homework, I managed to increase my score from 166 on the first diagnostic to 173 on my final diagnostic. On test day, I scored even higher thanks to my instructor’s tip to review the problems I had gotten wrong—I ended up with a 178 LSAT score. I was over the moon. I definitely couldn’t have done it without TestMasters!”

“Without TestMasters I never would have received a 162 on my LSAT—an EIGHTEEN point increase! TestMasters gave me all the tools to break down the question types and feel confident to tackle each section. The instructor was able to explain and provide examples so that everyone in my diverse class was able to understand as well as make studying for this test enjoyable—something I never thought I would say! TestMasters made me feel completely confident walking into the day of the test. I’m recommending this course to everyone who wants to go to law school!”

“I highly recommend the TestMasters course. Although at first I was really hesitant to spend so much on a prep course, I’m very glad that I ultimately decided to invest in this one. I significantly improved my score, which not only makes me a more competitive candidate for schools, but also increases the chance that I can get scholarships that will more than compensate for the cost of the course. I think the course is super helpful because it gives you access to every LSAT question available and it teaches you effective strategies to attack each type of question you might see on the test. In fact, there was so much practice work that I was only able to do about half of it, and I still saw a huge improvement on my diagnostic tests.

The best thing about the course was that it made studying for the LSAT really enjoyable. Sure I could have just bought the questions and studied on my own, but I think I would have gotten bored and burnt out that way, and I would have had a lot more difficulty understanding why I got questions wrong and—just as importantly—why the correct answers were correct. My teacher was extremely effective, and his jokes and witty comments kept our class laughing and having fun the entire time. And the fact that I got to interact with my peers also kept me interested and motivated.”

“I went into my TestMasters class having never looked at a single LSAT question before. After the first diagnostic I was terrified—I had always done well on standardized tests and a 150 was not where I thought I would be. Thankfully, my instructor Laura Ferro was incredible. She explained concepts and answered questions thoroughly from many different angles and helped me work through problem areas. Even when I doubted myself or questioned my ability to get where I wanted to be, she had complete confidence in me.

The TestMasters materials were a phenomenal resource. I never ran out of material to practice on despite what seemed like endless hours of studying. I also really appreciated TestMasters’ approach—no gimmicks or tricks, just learning the skills you need to understand and correctly answer questions.

When I walked into the testing center on the day I took the LSAT I knew that I could tackle any question that was thrown at me. It was a complete turnaround from how I felt on that first day of class and TestMasters helped me get there. I just got my score back a few days ago— 172! I moved up 22 points from my score on my first diagnostic, something I wasn’t sure was possible. I would recommend TestMasters to any friend of mine preparing to take the LSAT.”

“TestMasters was the key to my performance on the LSAT. I raised my score by nearly twenty points! My instructor really understood the test and gave his students the tools we needed to beat it. In class we went through each question type in depth so we could understand how it worked. It was much more than just time management and general strategy; we really focused on how to answer each question with confidence. I have recommended TestMasters to everyone who has asked me how to replicate my LSAT score, and will continue to do so.”

“I am so glad that I found the TestMasters program and used it to study for the LSAT. It taught me things I never would have been able to grasp through self-study with a limited background in logic/formal argument. Though rigorous and challenging, it is most definitely worth it. My final LSAT score was a 166, putting me in the 89th percentile and helping me receive two full-ride scholarship offers and several almost full-ride offers. I have already recommended the course to a colleague who was struggling with her LSAT studies. Right upon starting the course, she said she saw the questions in a whole new light. I have a lot for which to thank TestMasters.”

“I can honestly say that my decision to enroll in TestMasters was one of the best in my life and has changed the direction of my career path in the most beneficial ways imaginable. I knew people who took other LSAT prep courses and not only did I enjoy mine more, but I improved much more on my LSAT than anyone else I knew. I started with a 162 and I ended up getting a 177 on my test, a score that I never even imagined I could get. Doing well on the LSAT has left more doors open for me than I ever thought possible. Even though it is only December, I have already been accepted to both UC Berkeley and UCLA, and attending UC Berkeley, the school where my father went, has been my dream for as long as I can remember. TestMasters is an amazing course with a huge amount of resources and teaching methods that are simple enough to understand, but advanced enough to get you the score you need to achieve your dreams. Thanks TestMasters, I couldn’t have done it without you!!!”
