SOLUTION OF THE WEEK:
I really liked these weekly emails that focused on only ONE LSAT question and went into an in-depth look at each of the answer choices. It was easy to follow and the weekly emails were a great reminder of, hey LSAT checking in here, stay on track now, you hear.
BARRON'S BOOK:
The book we had to purchase along with the class I would honestly give a 10/10. It was clear, easy to read and explained things in a way I had not encountered before (even after taking two different prep classes). It went over a how-to for each question type and not only explained how to approach each question but also explained how NOT to approach each question i.e. common mistakes others make.
.
STUDENT MANUAL:
This was probably my favorite part of the STEPS course. To put it simply this manual is what makes this LSAT course different from so many others. Every prep class has assigned work that you do to prepare for the exam but this manual came with an outline and week by week schedule.
For those that have difficulty planning studying over a longer term course of a few months, this manual does it for you! It breaks down not only what you should have nailed by each week but each day. The LSAT can be very overwhelming and this manual organizes studying into a manageable schedule.
Aside from the schedule, I loved the advice and real life examples about the LSAT and the law school application process in general. When I was reading it I felt as if I was having a casual talk with a trusted adviser, rather than reading a class text.
.
I have taken two other LSAT prep classes from pretty big name companies and I still always struggled with timing. The STEPS approach was the best and easiest timing strategy I've come across. I can confidently say it made a huge difference in my score on official test day.
