If you're a prospective student hoping to attend a law school such as the Regent University School of Law, Varsity Tutors can help by setting you up with quality Virginia Beach LSAT preparation. The LSAT, which is also known as the Law School Admissions Test, was designed with the intention of evaluating the necessary skills to be successful in a rigorous law school program. The LSAT is one of the more difficult obstacles for students hoping to enter the law profession. As a critical step in this process, you'll want to take advantage of every resource available as you prepare for exam day. LSAT prep can help you practice the skills needed to put your best foot forward.
What can Virginia Beach LSAT prep cover?
The LSAT consists of five 35-minute sections containing multiple choice questions. Four of these sections will contribute to your official score. Your score is based on the number of correct answers and each answer is weighed the same. Let's take a closer look at the different sections found on the LSAT, starting with the Reading Comprehension assessment.
The Reading Comprehension assessment evaluates your ability to read a given passage and be able to respond to questions based on the text. You'll need to be able to understand the kind of long-form, difficult texts found in your law school courses. Questions will ask you to identify the main idea of a passage, the meaning of words based on context, and principles that function within the selection. LSAT prep can help you practice discerning an author's attitude based on the tone of a passage or how new information impacts the argument in a selection.
The Analytical Reasoning test assesses your ability to understand a structure of relationships and draw inferences about the structure. You'll need to demonstrate your capacity to infer what could or must be true based on provided facts and rules. You'll need to practice being able to recognize two statements with context that is logically equivalent. These are skills you can practice under the supervision of an expert instructor.
The Logical Reasoning assessment is broken into two sections, each lasting for 35 minutes. This section asks you to critique, analyze, evaluate, and complete an argument. Passages in this section can come from newspapers, magazines, advertisements, or scholarly publications. You'll need to be able to draw conclusions that are well thought out, identifying flaws in arguments, and using analogies to reason through an issue. Your LSAT prep can help you with detecting assumptions made by particular arguments or being able to recognize a misunderstanding or point of agreement.
There are also two unscored sections. One is known as the Variable section and is used to pretest new questions or test formats. You won't know which section is the Variable section until after you receive your score.
The other unscored section is the Writing assessment. Your essay is sent to all law schools receiving your score. Prospective law schools look at your essay to assess your ability to demonstrate your argumentative writing skills. The Writing assessment will present you with a decision problem and you'll be asked to choose between two positions. There is no right or wrong answer. This is simply your opportunity to present an argument and defend your position with evidence and support.
No matter which of these sections you want to practice, you'll be able to find support and assistance in an LSAT prep course.
What are the benefits of different types of Virginia Beach LSAT prep?
When you choose Varsity Tutors to help you with your LSAT review, you'll have the opportunity to choose between two excellent review options. You can elect to sign up for an online, interactive LSAT course or work with a private LSAT mentor. Both options can help you gain confidence in your own abilities but each comes with its own set of unique benefits and advantages. Let's take a look at each option.
For students who prefer a structured and social type of learning environment, an online Virginia Beach LSAT prep class may be the right answer for you. You'll be able to access your classes using our online learning platform. It allows you to interact with your instructor exactly as if he or she was in the same room as you. You'll also be able to participate in group discussions and activities, allowing you to collaborate with your peers as you review various skills needed to do well on the LSAT. For example, as you work on your argumentative writing skills, you can participate in peer editing groups to receive constructive criticism regarding your ability to properly support your argument. Alternately, you can work on reading comprehension with your peers as you read through a difficult text together.
When you choose to enroll in an online Virginia Beach LSAT prep course through Varsity Tutors, you'll be able to sign up for either a 2-week course or a 4-week course Both options will cover all the material you'll need to review for the LSAT. New class sessions begin weekly so you can get started as soon as you're ready.
If you are the kind of student who prefers independent study, a Virginia Beach LSAT tutor may be the right choice for you. This option provides you with the opportunity to focus on the exact areas in which you need to improve and allows you to move at your own pace. Your private mentor can get to know your particular strengths and weaknesses, as well as your preferred style of learning. For example, if you are an auditory learner, your instructor can use podcasts or audiobooks as a supplement to your study sessions. This kind of personalized lesson can help you to learn a concept more fully and retain knowledge for a longer amount of time.
No matter which option you choose, you can be sure you're receiving quality instruction from an excellent communicator due to our rigorous interview process.

Christopher: Virginia Beach LSAT test prep instructor
...make things harder than they need to be. I use technology as much as possible and like to find resources that I can provide to my students to make their academic careers more enjoyable and manageable. I retired from the US Navy in 2015 after serving for 22 years on active duty. I am enjoying my retirement and each opportunity I get to work with the wide variety of students here on Varsity.... I view teaching as a highly purposeful communication that occurs within the complex flow of human interactions. My primary goal is the crafting of clear and effective instruction materials to facilitate learning through discovery, exploration, and execution of learning activities. Using this as a foundation, I strive to reduce the difficulty that many students have learning to write well by breaking concepts down into the smallest chunks possible. To evaluate learning outcomes, I adapt various measures such as individual and collaborative work output; critical, creative and reflective writing (learning journals); writing portfolios; presentations utilizing multi-media technology; combined creative, reflective, critical thinking activities (written or verbal); student's contribution to discussions and feedback; various activities that apply multiple intelligence abilities; and concept summaries. With this at the core of my philosophy, I unceasingly strive to improve myself through reflective self-evaluations and I endeavor to keep my knowledge and expertise in our field updated. I value feedback from my students, mentors, superiors and colleagues to enhance my potential and capabilities in the teaching profession. Maintaining a non-threatening environment is also crucial to allow the productive flow of communication exchange between students and the instructor and among students themselves. Learning materials, activities, assessments and evaluations of learning outcomes must cater to the diverse learning styles, talents and capabilities, educational, social, and cultural backgrounds of students.

Therefore, I endeavor to give others the same one-on-one help that I received. Every student deserves a patient teacher who will help deepen and strengthen the student's understanding of his or her coursework.
