Poor for Beginners and Structural Approaches
I actually started off with LSAT Demon in my LSAT journey. They have a very intuitive approach to the questions which is great if you're the type of person who doesn't really want to know any crazy buzzwords about the exam. Unfortunately, I stunted myself incredibly by going with this prep company. I used to attend live classes, and nothing was really explained properly ever. The instructors all follow a similar method, and techniques outside of what they teach are not welcome, even if their techniques don't work for you personally. I kept attending live classes to no avail or help in my score, doing drills and pouring over the explanations that were exclusively intuitive and did not truly break down anything. Eventually, I was tired with the company and quit, going back to books and very foundational concepts about the exams. Learning the names of flaws, question types, and other important foundation concepts help boost my score in only a few months compared to the almost 6 months I was with LSAT Demon. I really regret going with this company initially, and this review isn't out of spite. If anything I'm more upset for myself having realized a more beneficial way of studying for myself so late. I wasn't able to improve to my goal score because I didn't have enough time between when I wanted to take my exam, and when I finally returned to studying foundational concepts. I also agree that there is an air of superiority when it comes to instructors as well founders, especially within their podcasts. While it could be argued that this is a "practical approach" which is meant to ground students "in reality", I cannot help but feel that this is an exclusionary tactic employed by MANY people I have encountered during my law school journey.
