GRE Quantitative Score: 740

“My first go around, I got a 530 on the verbal section, and 580 on the quantitative section. After taking the test prep, I scored 660 on the verbal, and 740 on the quantitative. Overall, I improved my score by 290 points.”

—Jeff R.
Verbal Score: 92nd percentile!

"The GRE class was worth every penny! The math teacher simplified difficult math concepts that I’d struggled with my entire life. Because of that, I raised my math score 200 points, and beat my English score! On the GRE I scored a 660 in English, a 680 in Math and a 5.5 in writing.”

—Jenny K.
GMAT Score Improved 150+ points!

“BYU’s test prep course, along with my own personal study, allowed me to improve my score by over 150 points. Getting my target GMAT score on the first try gave me extra time to focus on my essays and get my applications in order. I was accepted to Columbia and the University of Chicago.”

—Carlos Z.
LSAT Score: 172

“I took the BYU test prep course for the LSAT. The course provided me with enough practice tests to participate in class and practice on my own. It was a pleasure to learn from such experienced teachers and to benefit from such resources. I was able to score a 172 on the LSAT because of the preparation I received at BYU.”

—Debi H.
DAT Score: 21

“BYU DAT test prep helped me to find where I was weak. This helped me to curb my personal study onto subjects that I didn’t have such a firm grasp on. The results were phenomenal!
Academic: 21
Perceptual: 22”

—Geoffrey C.
MCAT Score: 37

“BYU’s MCAT prep class was definitely helpful. I took the first test and scored around 30, and my final score was 37. It was much cheaper than other prep courses and helped me a lot. Now I am in a top medical school and would certainly do it again if given the choice.”

—Joseph N.
ACT Score: 32

“I took the ACT and got a 25, but since I wanted to get into BYU, I wanted a better score. I participated in the BYU ACT Test Prep class and it really helped. After the class, I got a 32 on the ACT, with a 35 in English. This class was fabulous! I definitely suggest taking the test once, taking the class, and then watching your score improve.”

—Valerie M.

LSAT General Test Information

View the BYU LSAT blog.

The LSAT is a standardized test created by the Law School Admissions Council (LSAC). It is required by all ABA-approved law schools along with many other law schools as part of the admission process. This standardized test provides a means of assessing acquired reading and verbal reasoning skills that law schools value in their potential applicants.

The LSAT is a timed test, broken down into five 35-minute sections of multiple-choice questions. Four of the five sections are graded. The unscored section is typically used to pretest new test questions for future LSATs.

The three subjects are:

Reading Comprehension: Comprehension of complex texts with accuracy and insight
Analytical Reasoning (Logic Games): Organization and management of information, and the ability to draw reasonable inferences from it
Logical Reasoning: Analysis and evaluation of the reasoning and arguments of others

Writing Sample: shows law schools your writing ability (not graded by LSAC)

Scoring:
Scaled scores from 120–180

** Be sure to visit your prospective schools’ Web sites to check application and scholarship deadlines as well as score/GPA expectations.
