Blueprint LSAT Preparation Reviews 312

Law school has been a goal of mine for over five years. I took the plunge last September by contacting Blueprint. I am thrilled that I chose them for LSAT preparation. From Krysta (my dedicated case manager) to Brett, Kevin, and Laura (the superb online course instructors) to Felipe (my rockstar tutor), I was blown away by my experience.

Krysta patiently guided me through each step of the process. She was accessible and kind when discussing my strengths, concerns, and goals. Moreover, she astutely assessed my personality when matching me with an appropriate tutor. Without Krysta, I would not have seamlessly transitioned into the Blueprint courses, structure, etc.

Brett, Kevin, and Laura expertly deconstructed complex problems and skills into simple parts. Brett's risque humor, Kevin's dry wit, and Laura's puns whisked along the course through its conclusion. I only wish that a sequel existed.

Felipe was the lynchpin of my experience. I connected with him on an intellectual and personal level. He understood exactly when to push me, hold back, and encourage me. He deftly switched gears each session to address my specific weaknesses while always framing it through well-rounded preparation.

On the Score Release day, many people received scores 5-7 points lower than expected. In turn, I was mentally preparing for a sub-150 score. When I opened my score (waited for a family member), I was pleasantly shocked that it was 3-4 points higher than expected. Over the past month, that moment has cascaded into wonderful admissions returns with more positive news hopefully to come.

I could not have accomplished these goals without Blueprint. Thank you Krysta, Brett, Kevin, Laura, and ESPECIALLY Felipe. You positively impacted my life on a grand scale. I will always look back on Fall 2020 (and Winter 2021) as replete with incredible memories - laughter, perseverance, and success!

All the instructors at Blueprint are knowledgeable, helpful, and very easy to interact with. But Dylan, Chris, and Linette are by far my favorite LSAT instructors. I've learned so much from them, and I appreciate their time, patience, and understanding. The instructors will work with students to find alternative ways to comprehend the techniques and /or strategies to master the LSAT. Thank you, Blueprint, for a great pool (team) of instructors.

The best decision I made during this process was choosing Blueprint. The tutor, Keith Barry, that they connected me with was the absolute perfect match. I would not be where I am without Keith. I went from a 142 and 140 on my first two diagnostics to hitting 170+ on my practice tests. I improved by 20+ points on my actual LSAT and the range of schools that I was expecting to attend when I first started studying are now after thoughts. I was just waitlisted at Wash U, and was admitted into some phenomenal schools as well.

Keith helped me in all three areas of the exam. I made huge strides in a LR and RC because of his process of review during our tutoring sessions. I was getting 10-11 questions right on each exam section when I first started, but ended up getting near perfect sections on my PTs by the end. The biggest difference however was with LG. I was so lost and confused those first few months of studying, but because of Keith's help, LG was by far and away the easiest section for me and I would get perfect sections on 9/10 PT's. The last few months I wanted to focus more on LR/RC but whenever I needed help on LG, he was right there with his expertise to help me through the inferences and set ups.

Most importantly, we talked test strategy. I was able to see patterns and deductions that I never believed I would be able to see before I started studying with him. The harder questions on LR and RC that would take me 2+ minutes to answer (and usually get wrong), I would be able to finish in 30 seconds and answer correctly. His test strategy saved me much needed time, which anyone knows is critical during this exam. I really cannot state enough how wonderful a tutor and person Keith Barry is.

One of the aspects of working with Keith that was so helpful was his availability. He always worked around my busy schedule and was available whenever I had questions about certain problems at random times of the day, as well as questions about schools and the application process. He made this stressful and hectic experience seamless.

Not only did he help me study, but he was able to advise me on my personal and diversity statements. They were works of art after we finished discussing them. I had a unique story and my statements articulated the struggle that I went through beyond my wildest dreams. Moreover, he was an excellent person to bounce ideas off of on when and where to apply to schools.

I owe a huge debt of gratitude to Keith for all of his help.

Keith is an LSAT wizard.

My LSAT journey began well before I met Keith, resulting in numerous years and thousands of dollars wasted on other curriculums that didn't work. Keith was the first (only to be honest) person who explained the psychology of the test and how it was formatted. While other companies focused on mnemonic devices and company-specific jargon, Keith looked at my testing history and created a schedule that was flexible, affirmed the skills I already had, and honed my weaknesses. My cold diagnostic was 147 and I took two LSAT exams but struggled to break the 160s. I told Keith my goal was simply a 160 and he implored me strive even higher. By the end of our time together I was logging between 164-168 consistently and managed a 162 on my exam (I had some Flex tech issues that threw off my first section)! I am now heading to a T9 school that I would have never even applied to were it not for Keith's attention, expertise and individualized attention. Having the Blueprint curriculum to learn and practice the material and Keith to polish up questions I struggled on was the perfect match and the flexibility the tutoring structure allowed me to balance a full-time job and cross-country move. I loved working with Keith and you will too!

I had Spencer as a teacher and he was great! He made it really fun and interesting. He made sure that we never apologized for asking questions or for getting wrong answers. He was really patient and understanding. I would highly highly recommend.

Keith has managed to help me beat a seemingly impossible monster of an exam. His knowledge and mastery of LSAT was shown throughout every question we went through, as if he does the LSAT for a living. He managed to bring me from a Diagnostic 141 to a 159! Through his tutoring, he gave expert advice on Reading Comprehension which was my worst section, and we together we slowly improved Logical Reasoning (Logic Games was naturally my best so we didn't focus there). I am extremely happy Blueprint matched me with Keith as I don't think I'd be on the path of becoming a lawyer without him. His excellent response time made reviewing difficult questions a little less stressful.

All in all, I would send anybody looking for help to him.

After being out of school for 13 years, I decided to further my education work workplace advancement. As you can imagine this seemed like a daunting task and I was very apprehensive at first. After some encouragement, I decided to take the plunge.

After taking the first diagnostic test I was in utter shock. I quickly began to reconsider if this was for me. After more encouragement, I decided to give it a couple lessons and starting the class with Spencer and Theron. As many would say, they are both awesome. Spencer is extremely knowledgeable and very open with his students. This provides a great learning environment which fosters a lot of development by being able to make mistakes and having someone to help you see what is leading you to making those mistakes. This has helped me in particular. Since beginning the class (full disclosure - I again had a pretty abysmal score to start with) I have raised my score up 13 points. This is now giving me options as to which schools I can attend instead of me being locked in to one opportunity. Moreover, Spencer is also pretty funny which makes the classes more relatable and seem like fun rather than having a stuffy person talking at you which makes me personally lose interest. Theron is also awesome in helping answer those tough/specific questions in a Q and A format held in conjunction with the class so that the class can continue while YOUR specific question gets answered which is so helpful in keeping pace and not running out of time to cover the material.

Blueprint overall has a great learning system and the easy access for the material and content made it so that I could do specific live review sections when at work or at the gym on my phone.

Overall, highly recommend.

Blueprint exceeded my expectations, especially with instructors like Spencer Robins. He is one of the best instructors I've ever had, regardless of topic. He is concise, engaging, clear, funny, and goes above and beyond to ensure you stay on track for success. I would hire him to teach me anything if I could! Theron Herd is similarly very clear, and provides insight that directly and effectively answers all questions you may have. I was sad to see my LSAT class come to an end, believe it or not, because of the guidance and instruction of these two! Highly recommend.

I signed up for one of Blueprint's accelerated live online classes the day before it began. The online platform they use as well as their study books were very impressive. They both were straightforward, simple, and easy to navigate while still providing all the information I needed. I will say that during the course I did not feel as though it was doing much to help me. I felt that I was learning at a pace I could've just done on my own and not understanding the material as much as I should have been. BUT all of that changed when I got my LSAT-flex score back. In 2019, I took a timed practice exam without ever looking at an LSAT. I got a 142 on that exam. Flashforward to Feb 2021 when I took the actual exam, I scored a 164. I was completely blown away by these results. In just 2.5 months of studying (I didn't do any studying between the 2019 practice test and the start of my Blueprint class), I brought my score up 22 points. My goal going into the exam was to score around the low 150s. So I was completely blown away when I saw my score. I truly feel as though it couldn't have been done without the help of Blueprint and my instructor Thom. I highly recommend Blueprint prep as they truly help students achieve real results.

I worked with Blueprint LSAT tutor Chris Whyte for approximately 5 months in preparation for the February 2021 LSAT-flex. Having taken a previous LSAT course with another exam prep service that delivered limited results, I signed up for Blueprint on a whim, and was not disappointed. With the combination of Blueprint’s interactive and engaging curriculum and the one-on-one instruction I received working with Chris, I was able to increase my score by 10 points. Chris was incredibly flexible with my schedule (I work full-time and had to tailor my sessions to fit my work hours) and took the time to break down the sections of the exam that I struggled with most into terms and techniques that I could easily understand and apply on test day. At the beginning of my LSAT studies, I never would have dreamed of being able to achieve my goal score - Blueprint and Chris made it happen! Highly recommend this service and this tutor.

I am a former student of Blueprint that completed the LiveOnline course with Jenny, and then worked with Dylan for 20 sessions after that to improve on specific weaknesses and increase confidence. Working with Dylan was extremely beneficial to my overall experience in preparing for the LSAT. He was able to identify the areas that would benefit me the most, assign practice sets, and went through specific problems with me to further discuss the nuances of the different LSAT sections. He helped me gain confidence in my abilities and made me realize that I had what was needed to be successful on the LSAT. After my LiveOnline course, I scored far lower than I wanted to be on my last practice exam. I was crushed. I signed up for tutoring with Dylan and put in the time for the coming weeks, and was able to earn a high percentile score on the February LSAT. To be fair, I think there was some luck involved, but working with Dylan helped me stay accountable and made me feel ready and able to crush the exam.

My Blueprint Experience

Throughout my six weeks with Eric, he did his best to make sure that I was comfortable in our work environment, something which I appreciate greatly as it fosters better learning overall, especially for me. The homework and lessons were extremely beneficial, allowing me to improve my score to the range that I was satisfied with. Eric relayed information in ways that were best compatible with my thought processes and was sure to cover things that I was having a hard time with, as well as assign extra practices on these lackluster sections. This isn't something I didn't necessarily want to do because they didn't come as easily, but through communication and extremely productive session work I was able to iron out most of those wrinkles. Having taken the LSAT once before coming to Blueprint, I had a grasp on a few of the topics covered throughout our sessions. Nevertheless, I can say with full confidence that the score I achieved with Eric's help would not have been a possibility in his absence. I was very satisfied with not only Eric and his assistance, but the Blueprint website UI, chapter videos, homework, quizzes, practice tests, and everything alike. The expansive availability of resources is unparalleled, in fact, I have already endorsed Blueprint to one of my friends who is looking to take the LSAt in the future. Thank you for everything, Eric and all of Blueprint!

I took a live online course with Spencer and co-instructor Sam. They were both extremely knowledgeable, funny, and kept their students engaged. I definitely recommend them if you are going to take a live online course. The blueprint method simplified LSAT concepts I never thought I'd understand. Overall a great experience and very helpful class - thanks Spencer and Sam!

Blueprint helped raise my score by 11 points with one month of the online lessons. The modules are very straightforward to learn and helpful to understand and master the different LSAT questions.

Spencer was an excellent tutor who was able to keep the class engaged having the perfect amount of humor mixed in with learning

A blueprint was amazing, helped me increase my score by 11 points!!!

Dylan is an amazing tutor, and by far my favorite tutor that I’ve ever had in my academic experience. When I first started working with Dylan, my baseline was a 149 and after working with Dylan, I was consistently scoring in the high 160’s on practice tests and even scoring a 173. He makes the dense material easier as he’s able to break it down to a nuanced level. Not to mention he’s a super nice guy, as he has an incredibly positive disposition but still gives honest feedback. I could not recommend Dylan more highly.

Dylan is hands down possibly one of the best teachers I've ever had. I honestly don't think I would have been able to maintain my motivation to keep studying if I didn't have the opportunity to laugh with (at) him during the live online classes, office hours twice a week, and later private tutoring. He not only completely changed my chances in admissions by making me a competitive applicant in the T14/20, but he also helped me learn how to work smart and not hard throughout my entire life. Over the course of 7 months, he ALWAYS answered my *many* questions comprehensively and always seemed to just know what went wrong with my game plan. He is literally the reason why I stayed with Blueprint. Tutoring is definitely expensive -- but I genuinely believe that its an investment in your future. I highly recommend Dylan to anyone who felt as hopeless while studying for this test as I did for over a year of my life. You won't regret it!!!!

Dylan Gadek is a great tutor. I was stuck in the high 160's when I started working with him. He's really patient and is good at breaking down concepts. Go to Dylan, you won't regret it. I scored a 175+ on the official test. Thank you so much Dylan!

I used Blueprint for a month to prep for the LSAT flex and increased my score 15 points from my first test! I’d highly recommend using Blueprint to prep for the Test, it has been by far the best tool I’ve used.
