Summary

Download your free LSAT cheat sheet here: https://unpluggedprep.com/cheatsheet I scored a 152 my first LSAT. Got to a 175. I've been teaching this test since 2005. If you're prelaw, applying now, or stuck, you're in the right place. 🎯 Free LSAT tutoring lesson: https://unpluggedprep.com/start 📚 LSAT Unplugged courses and coaching: https://lsatunplugged.com Law schools just released their numbers for the class that started this fall, and LSAT medians went up again. Of the first 107 schools to post, 84 raised their median and only 3 lowered it. I pulled 10 years of ABA 509 reports to show how far it's gone: at Villanova, this year's bottom quarter scored 5 points above the 2015 median. My answer is to fight fire with fire. I walk through what 3 LSAT points do to a real school list, how much your school's median changes your odds at the top jobs (69% vs 17%), and the roughly $75,000 scholarship gap inside a single school.
