2 Your LSAT score is critical to your future. Here s why: Law schools use the LSAT to measure applicants in a standard way and their admissions committees use your score as a predictor of your success in the first year of their JD program. Let s consider the facts: u Law schools received a 3.9% increase in applicants for their 2009 entering class, the largest increase since u Only 67% of all law school applicants are admitted into a program. 2 u The average acceptance rate of the top ten law schools is only 14.5%. 3 u 58% of law school admissions officers say your LSAT score is the most important factor in the law school admissions process. 4 What score do you need? 5 Why prep for the LSAT? It s not exactly what you d expect. The LSAT is unlike most exams you ve taken during your academic experience. Let s take a look: Rank School 25 th -75 th %ile LSAT Score 25 th -75 th %ile Undergrad GPA Acceptance Rate Graduate Employment Rate The time pressure 1 yale % 98.1% Ask any student who has prepped for the LSAT: Given a week to take the exam, he d do quite well. But he didn t have a week, and neither do you. You have a finite amount of time 35 minutes, to be exact to tackle 2 harvard % 99.3% the questions in each section. And you may run out of time because you need to be more than just accurate; 3 stanford % 98.4% you need to be efficient. Understanding how the LSAT works, and learning strategies on how to best approach it, will help you score higher. 4 columbia % 99.5% A focus on critical thinking 5 university of chicago % 99.0% The LSAT is a skills-based exam; there s no content to know or information to memorize. It s coachable and university of virginia university of california (los angeles) % 17% 99.5% 99.1% conquerable. The LSAT focuses on your critical thinking skills: your ability to make decisions with limited information, manage time pressure, recognize patterns, and approach arguments strategically skills you ll use every day in law school university of texas (austin) george washington university % 22% 98.1% 89.1% LSAT Score Facts 1 Law School Admissions Council Volume Summary, Fall Law School Admissions Council Volume Summary, Fall US News & World Report, America s Best Graduate Schools, 2011 Edition. 4 Kaplan Law School Admissions Officer Survey, July US News & World Report, America s Best Graduate Schools, 2011 Edition, for fall 2009 applicants. When should you take the LSAT? The earlier, the better. Law schools use a rolling admissions process, so the sooner you apply, the sooner you are considered. While the LSAT is offered four times a year June, September/October, December, and February keeping an eye on the admissions cycle is important. But whenever you re ready to take the LSAT, Kaplan has more class options than any other company, so you re sure to find something that will get you ready for your target Test Day. Did you know? u While the average LSAT score is around 151, the top 10 schools have an average LSAT score range of (95 th 99 th percentile). 6 u Each additional correct answer can advance you ahead of as many as 7,500 other test-takers. u The LSAT is a more accurate predictor of law school success than your undergraduate GPA. 7 6 US News & World Report. 7 Predictive Validity of the LSAT: A National Summary of the Correlation Studies. 2 3

5 I studied for the LSAT on my own before the first time I took the test... and looking back on that now, I did not know anything about how to truly succeed on the LSAT. The Kaplan course helped me understand how to get the highest score I am capable of. Take it from your peers. Experience the Kaplan difference. I am so happy I chose Kaplan! I feel like I have an advantage going into Test Day. I absolutely love Kaplan. I ve tried Princeton Review and studying at home, and nothing compares to the experience I ve had at Kaplan. Your teachers are excellent, they genuinely care and are adamant about how well their students perform. I thought the resources were impeccable. They were well balanced to be challenging without being discouraging. This experience has been amazing! More people get into law school with a Kaplan LSAT course than with all other major courses combined.
