Frequently asked questions
Why was Start LSAT founded?
At Start LSAT, we are a group of dedicated students and lawyers who share a common vision: to provide everyone with an opportunity to pursue a legal education. Having worked in the legal sector, we've witnessed firsthand the challenges many face in their goal of becoming a lawyer due to the high financial barriers of obtaining quality LSAT preparation.
We noticed a recurring pattern of talented individuals working in various roles within the legal field, but not as lawyers, simply because they couldn't access the necessary resources to excel on the LSAT. This realization fueled our mission to change the landscape of legal education by breaking down these barriers.
Our goal is to make law school accessible to all aspiring students, regardless of their background. We believe that with the right preparation and support, anyone can achieve their dream of becoming a lawyer. At Start LSAT, we offer a comprehensive fundamental LSAT prep course, designed to teach you everything you need to excel. Our aim is to level the playing field, so that every student has the chance to succeed on the LSAT and attend law school.
How much is the course?
At Start LSAT, our mission is to break down the high barriers of entry into the legal field by providing everyone with quality LSAT preparation at an affordable price. This is why the Start LSAT course only costs a one time fee of $110, a fraction of all other LSAT preparation course. This is the lowest we could possibly charge while still covering all our costs. And given that this price is less than taking the actual LSAT, we believe we can make LSAT preparation affordable one student at a time!
Do I need to take an LSAT prep course?
This is a complex question and is different for everyone. When considering whether an LSAT course is right for you, we recommend doing a few things.
1) Take a diagnostic LSAT.
2) Look up your target law school's median LSAT. You should be over their median LSAT to give yourself a good shot at getting in. If your GPA is lower, or you are looking for some scholarship money, aim to be above their 75 percentile LSAT.
3) Compare your diagnostic LSAT to your target law school's median/75 percentile LSAT.
If your current diagnostic LSAT is not around or above your target school's LSAT median, you likely need some help studying. That is where we come in! We will provide you with the fundamental knowledge to improve your LSAT score!
