The LSAT is purposefully designed to assess the skills required for the first year of law school. These skills include reading comprehension, reasoning, and writing. LSAT scores fall in a range between 120 to 180, with the median score being approximately 152. A median score, however, will not be enough to secure acceptance to a top-tier law school, and competitive scores generally fall in the 160s to 170s. The Law School Admission Council (LSAC) is the organization responsible for the administration of the LSAT, and they regularly track and report statistical information about those who take the test, analyzing their information as a whole while also dividing test-takers into subgroups. According to the LSAC, among the most respected law schools, successful applicants have an LSAT score in the 170s. In order to be competitive for the highest-ranking law schools, it is necessary to do well on the LSAT. Here at Manhattan Review, we can help you master all sections of the test, improving your reading comprehension and reasoning abilities while also strengthening your critical writing skills.

Meet a Cambridge LSAT Tutor: Esther C.

Esther C. grew up in New York City and visited family regularly in Boston. "I love this part of the U.S.," she says. "My family travels a lot because we've got tons of aunts, uncles, and cousins, but there's no place like the East Coast." As a child and well into her teens, Esther spent most of her free time in various synagogue-related activities. "My faith is incredibly important to me, and I've seen and experienced all kinds of religious discrimination more times than I care to remember." Esther admits she always possessed a very strong sense of right and wrong and from an early age she was quick to stand up for those being mistreated, especially when it involved their religious freedom. "From the time I was old enough to understand what my father did every day, I knew I wanted to be a lawyer, just like him, doing my part to bring justice to a very unjust world." 

Esther worked incredibly hard in high school, writing for her school newspaper, participating in drama and debate clubs, and working on the yearbook committee. Her diligence earned her admission to Johns Hopkins University, much to her family's pride and delight, and she graduated with double majors in political science and psychology. Knowing she wanted to attend the best law school possible, Esther participated in group prep classes, which she supplemented with online instruction a couple of times a month. "I was so impressed with my instructor," she recalls. "He knew everything, and he was so passionate about helping us so we could go out and help others through our chosen careers." Esther's hard work paid off, and she was accepted to Yale University Law School. "I'll never forget the look on my family's faces when I gave them Yale sweatshirts," she grins. "My dad started crying and my mom started taking pictures and texting them to everyone she knew." 

After graduating from law school, Esther joined a firm in Boston that allowed her to focus on defending people who had been discriminated against because of their religious beliefs or practices, and she quickly established herself as an expert and a force to be reckoned with. While Esther loved being in a fast-paced courtroom, she missed the sense of comradery she'd felt while preparing for the LSAT with other students. "I'd done some student teaching during law school," she shares, "and I was eager to find ways to help others who wanted to pursue a legal career." Esther reached out to Manhattan Review about the possibility of tutoring students preparing for the LSAT, and she joined the team in 2016. 

Esther immediately set herself apart as an organized planner with an innate skill at explaining things in a way that was easy to understand and remember. There is regularly a waitlist for her LSAT prep courses, and students appreciate her patience, sense of humor, and ability to use examples from her own life when helping them master test questions. When she isn't helping the next generation of law students, Esther is active in her local synagogue, hosts a weekly potluck for friends and family, and is working on learning Hebrew "in honor of my heritage and to ensure important traditions are never lost."
