Our Talented and Experienced LSAT Course Instructors Oxford Seminars maintains the highest standards for all of our course instructors. We hire and extensively train only the most qualified instructors who have not only scored in the top 2% of all LSAT test-takers, but who also have years of distinguished teaching experience. From critically evaluating logical reasoning passages and drawing well-supported conclusions, to applying effective diagramming techniques and identifying structural flaws and errors in arguments, our instructors focus on teaching you the critical skills you need to master the LSAT. At the end of each and every LSAT prep course, our students are asked to evaluate our teaching staff. They tell us that they find our course instructors approachable, highly knowledgeable, and able to present difficult material in a dynamic, useful, and creative manner which facilitates learning and understanding.

Personal LSAT Tutoring Available For those students who have particular difficulty with any aspect of the LSAT exam, we offer individual tutoring sessions with one of our highly skilled LSAT course instructors. In addition to the extensive home study materials, which every student receives, we also make available for purchase additional LSAT practice materials from the Law School Admission Council. These valuable resources will assist you in further study.

Free Repeat Policy All of our LSAT test preparation courses include a no hassle free repeat policy which allows students to repeat the entire course for a second time, free of charge, within one year of their original course start date. Once you have taken any of our LSAT courses, you may repeat that course, free of charge, at any time for any reason within the next 12 months. Some students take advantage of this policy to review and re-attend our test prep course for double the preparation, prior to writing the LSAT, for one low price. In order to ensure a low student-to-instructor ratio, we ask free repeat students to contact us in advance to reserve their place in the upcoming LSAT test prep class. Free repeat students are asked to bring their original course materials and valid ID to class.

The Law School Admission Test The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) is a half-day, standardized exam administered four times each year by the Law School Admission Council (LSAC) at designated testing centres throughout the world, but primarily in Canada, the United States, and the Caribbean. Most Canadian law schools along with all American Bar Association (ABA) approved law schools require the LSAT as part of their admissions process. The LSAT provides a standard measure of acquired reading and verbal reasoning skills that law schools use as a primary factor in assessing applicants. The test itself is comprised of numerous questions designed to assess a wide range of abilities involved in critical thinking, with an emphasis on the skills that are central to legal reasoning. These skills include:

the reading and comprehension of complex text with accuracy and insight the organization and management of information and the ability to draw reasonable inferences from it the ability to think critically the analysis and evaluation of the reasoning and arguments of others

LSAT Exam Breakdown Reading Comprehension 26 - 28 multiple-choice questions 35 - minute section Logical Reasoning (Arguments) 24 - 26 multiple-choice questions Two separate 35 - minute sections Analytical Reasoning (Games) 22 - 24 multiple-choice questions 35 - minute section

Experimental Section 22 - 28 multiple-choice questions 35 - minute section Writing Sample 1 essay 35 - minute section

The LSAT is scored on a scale of 120 - 180 points. To put the score scale in perspective, the University of Toronto, for example, is looking for a potential candidate to have a score of approximately 167. The University of Victoria would be in the 163 range whereas the University of Ottawa does not require a minimum LSAT score of their applicants. The weight given to the LSAT will vary according to the other elements in each applicant’s file. Be sure to read the Canadian Law School Profiles in this package for more information about all law schools across the country.
