The LSAT plays a huge role in the law school admissions process: the better you do, the more options you have. It’s as simple as that. I scored a perfect 180 on the LSAT and can help you maximize your score.
I work with you one-on-one and customize the program to fit your strengths and weaknesses — and your schedule! The private tutoring sessions take the form of a stimulating dialogue — together we solidify your understanding of the material and increase your test-taking skills and confidence. No sleep-inducing lectures, no sardine-packed classes, no VCR.
If you’re considering taking the LSAT anytime within the next year, get in touch with me now. Together, we’ll devise the best strategy for achieving your goals. You can pick my brain about choosing your test date and get information about valuable self-study techniques (including what to avoid like the plague!). Let me put it this way, you’ll suffer a lot less than if you’d waited until the last minute to call me.

“Until I left Kaplan and started working with Klarman, I was clueless. Rich forced me to attack my weaknesses with intelligence and discipline. His amiable demeanor made me feel comfortable and confident, the intangibles that allowed me to flourish on test day.”
Ari Shwedel / Cardozo Law School
LSAT score improvement: 9 points
“After two lessons with Klarman, I stopped going to Kaplan and never looked back. Without Klarman, I wouldn’t have been accepted by Stanford, Columbia, Chicago, and Michigan.”

“I’m really glad I called Rich. He helped me build confidence in my test-taking skills and achieve a much higher score than I thought possible. Ultimately, I was accepted by my first-choice school and can’t imagine being happier anywhere else. Thanks Rich. You’re the man.”
Joanna Belkin / Northeastern University School of Law

(Voicemail message) “I’m on cloud 9! I got into Michigan! Yes, I did. I’m just so ecstatic, it’s incredible. I don’t even know what’s going on. I’m totally excited and really thrilled, and so happy to have stumbled across your help at that Eastern Michigan University law thing. I mean, talk about chaos theory at work, man. This is just awesome. You can chalk this up as another one of your pupils getting into their dream school. Thanks Rich!”

The registration deadline for each LSAT administration tends to be slightly more than a month prior to the test date. I admit, that’s a pretty vague formulation. Suffice it to say, if it’s several months before the test date, you’re cool. But if the test date is drawing close, or you’re the kind of person who just likes to know stuff, then check out the LSAC’s LSAT Dates & Deadlines page.
Really, though, you should register as soon as you know when you plan to take the test. Why wait? Test centers fill up, mail gets lost, your cellphone dies, etc. Take care of it.

I recommend that, if you order publications from Law Services, you do so by phone — not by mail or online. Call them at 215.968.1001, and speak with a human being. Don’t use the “automated service.” Also — and this is very important! — have your order shipped Federal Express. This may sound neurotic, but if the person taking your order doesn’t hear the magic words “Federal Express,” your stuff might not arrive for a month. Really.

I recommend this chart for keeping detailed information about your performance on practice tests. It’s pretty self-explanatory, although two parts could use some clarification. One is the little square in each section score field. Here you should indicate each section’s number (1-5). The other is the “Comment Code.” Every time you take an LSAT, take a moment afterwards to record your sense of how the test went, your problem areas, test conditions, etc. Label these comments with a letter, and put the same letter in the “Comment Code” box for easy reference. Keep your answer sheets, the ScoreTracker, and all the comment sheets in your shiny, new LSAT 3-ring binder. You also want to keep every test you take and any scratch paper you use to rework questions. This binder will soon be your best friend.
Download the ScoreTracker. It’s a PDF file, readable with Acrobat Reader 3.0 or higher. If you don’t have Acrobat Reader, you can get it from Adobe for free. Otherwise, call me, and I’ll fax you a ScoreTracker.
