160 to 168: two months, two sessions, zero bullshit

I reached out to elleSAT because I had a high diagnostic score on the LSAT. Anita got straight to the point and helped me put together an initial study plan for myself and told me the score increase I should expect and on what timeline. I got exactly the score she said I would in exactly the timeframe she told me.

I booked two sessions with her in addition to my very loose self studying, and I am confident that I would have achieved a higher score had I chosen to work with her more closely. She definitely knows what she is talking about and is no-bullshit. She was generous with our session time and genuinely interested in helping me achieve my goals in the most cost-effective and time-effective way possible. She is an honest person, a straight shooter, and a truly great tutor. If I decide to retake, she’ll be my first call.

One hour well-spent

At a certain stage of your LSAT preparation, reading more commercial books or practicing more questions stops being helpful. Most students get frustrated and settle for whatever score they have at this point, but that's because they do not understand the key to a higher score is to change your thinking patterns. You can learn all the information you want but the LSAT makers are masters at getting you to revert to your baseline thinking patterns, which is why you keep getting the same amount of wrong questions over and over again.

I couldn't change my thinking patterns myself which is why I am grateful to Anita for showing me techniques that made me look at the test differently. Whether you like or dislike her techniques is irrelevant; just trying them forces your mind to approach the test differently which can be all that is needed to increase your score. Most tutors regurgitate information from PowerScore or Manhattan Prep, but Anita analyzes your specific weaknesses and targets them with her unconventional strategies and study plans. With her help, I was able to raise my score from a 168 to a 175. Thanks Anita!

Perfect study plan for ADHD

I found Anita when I hit the infamous 165/mid 160s score plateau in my LSAT prep. Logical reasoning was holding me back, specifically getting better at managing my time with questions to maximize my score. She helped me to understand the test's mechanics in a different way through her close analysis and perspective and gave me new techniques for reviewing my work and moving forward. Her study plans are perfect for students with ADHD or limited time to study, and in my experience were more helpful than guides and books.

I only needed three sessions to get on the right track and break through and into the deep 170s. I got to 170 exactly when she said I would, and her advice kept me moving higher. I recently scored a 175 on the August LSAT. Great investment and even better tutor.
