Score improvement depends on your starting point and study effort, but most students see meaningful gains with focused preparation. Many students improve by 5-10 points or more when they commit to the full curriculum and practice consistently. The key is identifying your specific weak areas—whether that's logic games, reading comprehension pacing, or logical reasoning patterns—and targeting those with expert guidance throughout the 10 weeks.

Logic Games require a unique skill set that differs from the other LSAT sections—they demand visual-spatial reasoning, pattern recognition, and the ability to work through complex rule combinations quickly. Many students haven't encountered this type of problem before, which can feel overwhelming initially. With systematic instruction in diagramming techniques and repeated practice, most students gain confidence and significantly improve their performance in this section.

Most comprehensive 10-week programs include 8-12 full-length, timed practice tests spread throughout the course. Early tests help establish your baseline and identify weak areas, while later tests simulate actual test conditions and track your progress. Between practice tests, you'll focus on drilling specific question types and reviewing mistakes in detail—this targeted practice is what drives improvement.

Reading Comprehension challenges often stem from either reading too slowly or too quickly without retention. Expert instruction focuses on active reading strategies—identifying main arguments, author tone, and structure—rather than trying to read faster. You'll learn to distinguish between detail questions and main idea questions, practice strategic skimming, and work through timed drills that build both speed and accuracy without sacrificing comprehension.

Test anxiety is common, but a structured 10-week prep program builds confidence through repeated exposure to full-length, timed practice tests under realistic conditions. You'll learn pacing strategies that prevent panic, techniques for managing difficult sections, and how to recover mentally if you encounter an unfamiliar question type. By test day, you'll have practiced the exam format dozens of times, which significantly reduces anxiety and builds trust in your preparation.

Your first session typically includes a diagnostic full-length practice test to establish your baseline score and identify which sections need the most attention. You'll review your results together to pinpoint patterns in your mistakes—whether you're missing questions due to timing, misunderstanding question types, or knowledge gaps. This diagnostic foundation guides your personalized study plan for the remaining 10 weeks.
