LSAT Lab was great. I'm glad I ended up picking it instead of several other already established LSAT prep services. Through LSAT Lab, I jumped from around a 154ish to the 160ish range in what felt like a short amount of time (3-4 months or so). The strength of LSAT Lab was the unique approach to identifying patterns throughout each section and the passion/availability of Matt Sherman, its creator. The online classes LSAT Lab offers are also a great way to learn and interact with the LSAT and other students. My main issue came when I attended classes that I had previously attended and reviewed the same problems in those lessons the second time around. While you do learn new things each time you revisit a subject, or particular questions, I would have also liked to see new questions used to teach the same subjects.Overall I can confidently say I made the right choice in picking LSAT Lab as my main LSAT prep tool and I cannot recommend it enough!

Wow - LSAT Game Changer
Alright...So after numerous PTs, a few different commercial test prep companies...I was still getting the same crappy score and having meltdowns for not understanding why I sucked and was not getting any better at the Reading Comprehension section. I booked a 30 min with Matt. He gave me "1 tip" just by looking at one of the reading comp passages I did on a previous PT and I have hardly missed a reading comp question since.
My LR section drastically improved as well, again just by showing Matt my answer sheet and how I attack questions! He walked me step by step through how I should approach certain question types. He found out which ones slowed me down and gave me tips and methods on how to not get stumped by them. My last PT before taking the July 2019 exam, I did not miss any Weaken questions.
I could not recommend LSAT Lab enough! If you need a game changer this is truly it! If you have a goal and can't seem to be reaching it, Matt can totally help. He takes a very personalized approach and is super patient.He can customize your study plan (no matter what level you're at) to effectively reach your goals. I broke through my LSAT plateau and I can't thank LSAT lab enough.
Study with LSAT Lab. You won't regret it! :)

Review of LSAT Lab
I thoroughly enjoyed LSAT Lab, and I found it to be a wonderful service. The interface and user experience were top-notch, and, as I mentioned to Matt, my only suggestion would be to expand the amount of online resources and include explanations for all of the offered questions.

LSAT Lab is an EXCELLENT LSAT Prep…
LSAT Lab is an EXCELLENT LSAT Prep course!! You know that saying 'you get what you pay for?' So if you pay for a cheap LSAT course you expect a bad course and visa versa? Well in this case you get MORE than what you pay for!! LSAT Lab is for people who don't want to break the bank (isn't law school expensive enough than to be forking out more money for useless LSAT prep courses!?) but still want value for money with a TOP-NOTCH INSTRUCTOR who understands the needs of his students. Matt is the best educator and tutor I've ever had in this whole arduous process of the standardised test taking game. He has cracked the test taking code himself and can show you step by step how to master the LSAT. He is patient, listens well and is communicative. He understands the needs of all levels from a low LSAT scorer to high achievers and will assist you in the most effective way to improve your score. He takes a very personalised approach and can customise your study plan effectively. Most of all he is there for you every step of the way if you need him. Do yourself a favor and sign up for this guys course. Call him now. You won't regret it. He is the BEST.

High Quality Teaching & Tips
It is clear to me that the LSAT Lab's methodology is well-thought, and the very user friendly site is created professionally and intelligently. Everything is explained in a consistent, thorough, organized, and education based manner. Not only can you watch videos on each categorical breakdown, get an efficient, personalized study plan quickly, and attend online classes, Matt is extremely attentive, rsponding to your concerns and questions with sincere intent via live chat/messaging.
I tried every aspect of the program, until the freebies were used. After exhausting the Kahn Academy question and test banks, I came back to LSAT Lab, realizing how much it will be worth to have that one on one help if needed, even full one-on-one tutoring sessions. The money spent will be, I presume, more than compensated for by the scholarship(s) toward which I am working.

LSAT Lab--the perfect program for 160+ scores
I first read about Matt Sherman's LSAT Lab program back in sometime in Fall 2018 in a Reddit post on the r/LSAT subreddit. At that point I had been studying for the LSAT for over a year using various books and programs, and had maxed out in the low 160s for about half of that time. I desperately wanted to score in the upper 160s or 170s, knowing that such a score would be the key to securing full-tuition scholarships at the schools I most wanted to attend.
Due to my desperation, I was willing to try anything. Up to that point, I had used the LSAT Trainer, Khan Academy, and several of the Powerscore and Manhattan books. Anyone who has spent anytime on the Internet looking for LSAT materials knows the extensive and overwhelming number of different companies and programs that exist to prepare students for the LSAT, and they vary widely in quality. So I initially responded to Mr. Sherman's post on Reddit about LSAT Lab's effectiveness with a bit of skepticism and trepidation
These concerns were soon allayed. Of course, it helped that he allowed me to preview the program's group webinars, which I believe constitute the centerpiece of what makes this program unique as of now, and that he also has free Youtube videos covering major concepts on the LSAT.
After receiving my January 2019 LSAT score of 163, still far below my desired 170, I signed up for the full LSAT Lab program. This unlocks a massive library of Logic Game, Logical Reasoning, and Reading Comprehension questions, and full practice tests, which from what I understand, will continue to expand. The practice tests currently include the officially released ones from 50 to 83. The library of questions here is greater than what can be found in Khan Academy. He also created a study plan for me, which I adhered to in part.
The other advantage of this program versus programs like the online Khan Academy LSAT program is the one-on-one tutelage that Mr. Sherman himself offers through the Blackboard application, and the three-times-a-week online webinar classes, which provided a fascinating and fun opportunity to work with other LSAT students on materials Matt presented.
Ultimately, what you get out of this program corresponds with what you put into it. If I had to re-do my LSAT preparation, I would have spent more time with the test analytics, which Matt continues to refine and develop. After one enters ones answers from a particular practice test into the analytics page, a number of graphics and data will appear that show things like percentile of the test-taker on individual sections and the test as a whole, question types missed, and question difficulty. Explanations are also provided for answers to questions from certain previous tests, which I believe are more thorough and understandable than explanations from other resources I have used.
While Khan Academy provides a decent free program, LSAT Lab wins hand-down. With his program's help I was able to increase my score to 165 on the March 2019 LSAT, and now wait to receive my June 2019 score, which I am confident will be close to my 170 goal. I have received full-tuition scholarships due specifically to my score increases. If you can complete any program before taking the LSAT, choose this one; it is the best!
