Highlights
When we don’t grasp the actual argument, we risk filling in gaps ourselves and missing its flaws. Today, we looked at a strengthen question that seemed tricky at first, but once we saw the limits of the author’s premises, it was clear the conclusion overreached. That insight made the correct answer obvious.

Josh began with a 151 but changed his outlook by seeing the LSAT as part of his law school journey, not an obstacle. Once he enjoyed studying, his scores soared. Now he teaches to help others feel the same.

Josh's class embodies the Demon mindset. If you want to get better the Demon way, this IS the way!Mya R.
I had an amazing experience with John as my LSAT instructor! His early morning classes are perfect for staying sharp, and I especially appreciated how he pushed us to interact and predict answers before diving into explanations. It really helped deepen my understanding and skill of predicting where the passage is going and the answer choice. I loved the class and feel much more confident about the test. Highly recommend!Maura W.

Josh is great. He is very patient and courteous when asked questions and does his best to help students understand. His emphasis on doing each question slowly, understanding, predicting, and not worrying about the clock when you're learning is great. I took his advice and got 16 answers right in a row on my next timed section.Brianda M.
