For those of you looking for a great lsat prep course Fox Test prep is the best out there don't waste money or time using the other lsat prep course with their fake lsat sample tests and absences of real explanations for why the correct answers are right and the wrong ones are wrong. His prep course and videos show why the right answers are right and how to know for sure and why the wrong answers are wrong and why for all lsat sections. You can always call him or email him with specific questions. He will get right back to you. You can chose from in class, online or private lsat prep course options. His course is reasonably priced I chose self study online and it was perfect for me a single full time working mommy of one. It provided me with the flexibility to start and come back on my own schedule. There's videos showing explanations for various questions for all four sections. I brought additional books and materials online from Amazon to focus on my weakest sections logic games and logic reasoning. Nathan is extremely helpful and supportive during my longgggg and challenging journey preparing for the lsat. My previous score went up six points the last time I took it in 2015. This time I expect an even bigger score increase especially where the games and logical reasoning sections are concerned. I started noticing patterns in the way the questions were asked on the lsat and learned how identify how to answer the question by focusing on what the question is asking in the logical reasoning section specifically. He also shows the best way to diagram the rules in the logic games and making inferences. That entails not wasting time diagraming unnecessarily and and certain rules you can hold in your head. That depends on the type of logical game your working on. I am more confident in crushing these sections after reading and practicing using the logical reasoning book and Logical reasoning playbook. I enjoyed the logical game playbook the most (never thought I would say that.) by the time I got to the second time practicing the game after reading the explanation I was crushing the games the second and third time around. It became fun especially when I could look at question after diagraming and doing inferences and knowing without a doubt which answer was right and why the others were wrong. I've been struggling with the logical games for quite some time and I can say I've conquered the fears and the doubts I once had. I'm very proud of myself! I took the lsat yesterday and kicked major butt! Practice over and over again. The lsat is a challenge but you will make it too! read more

I was in Nathan's LSAT class and benefited greatly from it. The material on the LSAT is boring as hell and Nathan does a great job of making the class fun with his humor. Nathan is constantly arguing with the speaker and using profanity (which is hilarious, btw) to keep the class alive. Actually, I think he's just being himself which makes the otherwise dry material very entertaining. Nathan scored a 179 on the LSAT so it seems he can do most of these in his sleep if he wanted to. In addition to covering the LSAT section he does a 30 minute Q&A before every class (530pm-6pm) where you can ask him anything related to law school. He is always honest about the pros and cons of pursuing a legal career which I appreciated. He also did a great job of bringing in guest speakers to answer questions you may have. Nathan is always available to his students. You can always email him and he'll get back to you. If you have a question about applying, want to send him your personal statement or got stuck on a question he's your man. I admire how available he makes himself. You can tell he wants to help people succeed on the LSAT and get into the best possible law school they can. One thing I particularly appreciated is he allowed me to pay on a payment plan. This helped ease some of the financial burden of a $500 a month class. His prices are very reasonable and worth every cent but his flexibility was very much appreciated. Nathan also offered proctored tests on the weekends so you get to mimic test conditions. I found those valuable. Unless you're an outstanding test taker my advice would be to take the class for 1-2 months. At that point you start to see the patterns in some of the logic games and get a feel for how to set them up and you may be able to recognize certain types of questions throughout the test. I 100% unequivocally recommend Fox Test prep. I researched a couple of places before choosing Nathan's class and preferred to support a local business and I can guarantee Nathan is funnier and more effective than any of the big test prep services out there. Thanks Fox Test prep! read more

Nathan treats the LSAT as if it's the ultimate bullshitter. Then helps you smell the LSAT's bullshit for yourself. That's probably the best way I can describe his style. He helped me improve my score more than I could have hoped and now I will be attending a school I didn't even think possible when I started studying. If you want to improve your LSAT score it's definitely worth your time to take Nathan's course! read more

I took Nathan's class to prep for the July 2018 LSAT. I had exposure to LSAT before attending his class and had formed some harmful habits, which I corrected thanks to this class and his ThinkingLsat Podcast (a great free resource for LSAT takers!). The course helped me reframe the test and stay motivated. It made me realize I am capable of getting my target score but I had to put in the necessary work and stop overthinking it. By the end, the test almost felt easy and intuitive. I was prepared and confident in my mastery of the skills the test rewards. I scored 170, a 17 point jump from my other score on record. Taking this course is not going to magically get you to 170 but it provides great guidance. However, I suggest familiarizing yourself with basic LSAT concepts before taking it to get more out of it. Overall, highly recommend! read more

Nathan's class was amazing! I appreciated his honesty about the LSAT, law school applications, and the legal profession. His classes themselves were engaging, even though they went on into the evening I was never tired. I thought that it was invaluable that he conducted practice exams in timed testing conditions. Further, he was good at explaining different test techniques because test taking is definitely a skill (and not one that I excel at.) Nathan also connected students who were interested in particular areas of law with lawyers for informational interviews which is invaluable. Further, after I finished taking the class, I emailed Nathan with questions about which law school to accept. He was upfront and honest and his advice helped me to make the right decision for me. I am now a happy but tired 1L thanks to Nathan. read more

I found Nathan through the Thinking LSAT podcast, which is an an awesome resource for all things related to the LSAT and law school. If anyone is thinking about taking the LSAT and/or applying to law school, 10/10 would recommend. I began studying for the LSAT last year with a prep course from a well-known, LSAT-centered test prep company here in Southern California. Unfortunately, my work schedule and long commute made it tough for me to attend classes regularly, and I more or less dropped out halfway through the course. I felt that it had provided me with a solid enough foundation that I could build on with self-study. When I took the LSAT in February 2017, I had completed 5 PTs, didn't spend much time reviewing my mistakes, and thought I could somehow magically pull a 170+ score out of thin air. I didn't feel confident coming out of the test, but maybe I would get lucky and all of my guesses would be correct! Nope. The LSAT doesn't work like that. Listening to the podcast made me realize that in order to get that coveted 170+ score, you have to have a firm grasp on what the question is asking and on the strategies you can use to get to the correct answer. As I prepared for my retake in September 2017, I honed in on the specific types of questions I struggled with and tried to really understand how to choose the best (and only) answer. I took around 25 practice tests in the two months that I dedicated to LSAT preparation this past summer, delighting in the slow but sure increase in my score. Then, the week before the test, my score suddenly dropped. I totally freaked out. After much debate, I signed up for a private tutoring session with Nathan. I'm not going to lie, it was a pretty hefty investment, especially given that I was funemployed at the time. You could probably find private tutors with more affordable hourly rates. However, I knew from listening to the podcast that Nathan not only knew the LSAT inside and out, but could also teach and explain very clearly the rationale behind his methods. The latter factor made all the difference in furthering my understanding of question types and how to best approach them. Given that an increase of even a couple of points on the LSAT can translate to thousands of dollars in scholarship money, I bit the bullet and signed up for a 2-hour private tutoring session via Skype, 4 days before the exam. This session was so close to my test date and I worried that it wouldn't provide me enough time to grasp any concepts I struggled with. However, because it was so close to my test date, I was able to get in the correct mindset for the test. I focused on attacking each answer choice and being cynical about every statement I came across. I am over the moon with the result. I only wish I had known about Nathan's classes and tutoring earlier so that I could have prepared effectively from the start. Disclaimer: he's not a miracle worker, so it's not like one session with him will get you from a 150 to a 170. But if you put in the time to review your mistakes and supplement your efforts with Nathan's explanations and strategies, you'll likely be very satisfied with the results. TL;DR: Listen to the Thinking LSAT podcast. Take his class. Sign up for private tutoring when you're scoring in the upper ranges to solidify a great score. It's absolutely worth the investment. read more

Nathan is THE BEES KNEES. He somehow manages to be totally candid, funny, and useful all at the same time. I used his Logic Games Playbook and the LR Book, both were awesome. The LG book lets you do the games up to 3 times, and he has amazing explanations. The LR is really great too. Nathan's writing is hilarious and intuitive! I also did a private tutoring session with Nathan and found it to be the best course of action to really fine tune my skills once I was scoring pretty high. He's always quick to respond to all my questions, comments, and concerns. I don't think I would've been as confident going into the September LSAT without him! TL;DR: He's THE MAN. Listen to The Thinking LSAT podcast. Sign up for tutoring. Do his free online class. Buy his books. Love him. read more

I found Nathan and Fox LSAT on a whim through the Thinking LSAT Podcast. I found his frankness very appealing on the podcast, so I emailed him after taking the June 2007 LSAT and getting a diagnostic score of 146. He emailed me back the next day and said he could help. I first took his free online class to see if I liked his teaching style. After completing said class, I realized that Nathan was awesome, knew a shit ton I didn't know, and I decided to pay for his online class. His online class was a good investment: it includes many video lessons, three of his books (the LR book is particularly helpful), and many practice LSAT tests which I am still working through. With Nathan's help, after just one and a half months of studying, I am now scoring in the 158-163 range. After religiously listening to the podcast and Nathan's sage advice, I decided to switch my LSAT date from September of this year to December so I can study more and increase my PT range. I know it'll be hard, but as Nathan says, he's on my team, and I'm ready to work my ass off. read more

For anyone wanting to go to Law School the LSAT is one of the biggest hurdles. I did a lot of research as to who to hire/what course to take for my LSAT prep. I came VERY close to taking one of the big name classes, but I changed my mind when I stumbled across Nathan and Fox LSAT. I first heard of Fox LSAT while listening to the Thinking LSAT Podcast, co-hosted by Nathan. (I highly recommend that if you're thinking of LSAT and Law School that you go and listen to every episode, NOW. It is by far the best LSAT podcast out there). I really was drawn in by the fact that Nathan is so real and down to earth. He is very knowledgeable, he has a list of credentials a mile long, but he's still just a regular guy. Nathan got a 179 on the LSAT and he knows it inside and out. He has written multiple books on the test and he explains the questions in such a way as to make them seem easy. In fact, he always says that the test is easy and you can tackle it once you learn how. I live in Las Vegas, so I registered for Nathan's online class. The format is laid back and self-paced, so you can study whenever and however you want. His process is simple, you take the old LSATs and then go over them in depth. You learn why you missed what you missed and how to think about the questions so that the next time you know how to approach the questions. There's no trick to the test, you have to grind it out, but it is learnable. I completed as many of the practice tests and online review segments as I could. I studied for three months. I think I did something in the neighborhood of 25 tests. I also went through Nathan's entire Logic Games book twice and through the grand majority of his LR book. To get some more practice and in person interaction, I also went to LA and attended Nathan's prep class in person for 3 days. That was a great experience as I met some really cool people and I got to interact with Nathan in person. Even though I was an online student in a class with other students, I felt like I was Nathan's only student. He is so quick to reply to all discussion posts or emails, messages and questions that I wonder how he does it. I really don't know how he's able to answer questions so quickly and teach and tutor and write books and blog posts and keep up with the online classes and the podcast. The thing that I felt was most valuable about using Fox LSAT for my prep was that it was personalized. You are literally learning from one person, who is an LSAT expert. He's down to earth and he tells it like it is and he teaches you to think. He also has great connections, including connecting with Anne Levine who is an expert on admissions. Nathan can tell you all about the LSAC, advise you on admissions, scholarships, and law school in general. I just felt like he was my own personal tutor instead of me just being a student in a class. My first mock test I got a 156. After studying and taking Nathan's class, I was averaging on my practice tests 164 +/- 3. I credit Nathan's class for my improvements, particularly in LG, which was my highest scoring section when I took the September 2016 LSAT. Thanks to Nathan, I took the 9/2016 test, I applied to law school in 10/2016 and in 12/2016 I received notice that I have been admitted to the Fall of 2017 class at UNLV. Thanks Nathan! If you're looking for a down to earth, personalized LSAT prep class, Nathan and Fox LSAT is a great way to go. Highly recommended. read more

I've done every school, every book, every system. Nathan is more dedicated, knowledgeable and generous than every other school combined. Actually, I've never seen another business owner who responds so quickly and thoroughly to clients. I'm not sure how he manages to give everyone so much 1-on-1 attention. Yes, he has a unique style, which although intimidating, often left me cracking up in class. Not only is he an absolute machine in regards to the test, but he knows about every other aspect of the application. Nathan will give you direct and honest feedback and tell you what you need to hear. No matter what resources you use, it's ultimately up to you to sink or swim in this whole frustrating process. But you definitely want Nathan in your corner. read more

After buying The LSAT Trainer, I decided that I needed to take a prep class because I had a lot of unanswered questions. I had heard horror stories from friends that tried to take classes at places like Kaplan and Blueprint - tons of course cancellations at the last minute - and I obviously didn't want to waste money on those experiences. I found Fox LSAT via Yelp and decided to give Nathan's classroom course a chance. (The best choice I've ever made based off Yelp reviews!) Nathan's approach to mastering the LSAT is very straightforward and allowed me to see the test in much simpler terms. There are common test-taking tips that I had picked up prior to his course (ex. reading the questions first on Logical Reasoning questions) and luckily Nathan called bullshit on many of those techniques! He's a great teacher because he doesn't ask you to conform to his methodology if something is already working for you, but he encourages you to drop some of these formal approaches and see how it affects your score. In my case, those tips were not helping me and I'm glad I took his advice. I really enjoy his course structure: timed sections during every class followed by ample review of each section. All the practice really helps when it comes to timing and strategizing for your optimal score. As well, he's a wealth of knowledge when it comes to questions beyond just taking the LSAT. His overall insight into the application process, scholarships, and the reality of practicing law are all added bonuses when you take his course. Finally, Nathan is a cool guy that's very genuine and obviously smart. When he says to reach out to him with any questions, he actually means it. After one meeting with him, you can tell that he knows what he's talking about and that he truly loves what he does. I just don't think you're going to find that combo very often, and I encourage anyone considering law school to take his class! read more

I had a wonderful experience in this class. My score had increased by over 10 points! I had not seen any classmates fall asleep in this class because Nathan's humor and drive motivates his students to work more diligently on the LSAT. Nathan also provides useful tips for law school such as: application, scholarships, personal statements, reality of law school, etc. The Fox LSAT Logical Reasoning Encyclopedia: Disrespecting the LSAT is a wonderful practice book because it consists of test problems along with Nathan's written explanation. Highly Recommend! Thank you for your help Nathan! read more

There's a reason why this dude has so many 5 star ratings. He is a true LSAT expert with a ton of experience, and is incredibly dedicated. Every time I've emailed him he's responded within a few hours, and he even lets you call him if you're in a panic. I listen to his podcast (The Thinking LSAT Podcast) which I've gotten a ton of value from, and have been self-studying for a few months. I was having trouble getting past that 170 wall, so I emailed Nathan and setup a tutoring session before the June test. I hate frivolous test-prep advice and tutors that only know of one specific way of looking at something. After doing a lot of reading on LSAT advice, I realized a lot of it is advice on timing or "tricks". If you're someone who really wants/needs to master the LSAT, a trick doesn't really cut it, you have to have a deep understanding of the concepts. I need someone who can explain things from several different angles until it *clicks* for me, and a veteran LSAT tutor like Nathan is perfect for that. We went through all the questions I got wrong on a recent test in detail, focusing on the actual thought process in the moment. Seeing how Nathan approached the question and comparing that to what I had done revealed a lot about why I'm getting certain questions wrong, and how I can refine my process to be more efficient. I was able to see some holes in my thinking on a larger level that I didn't realize were there. It's so easy to sit around going back and forth between answers trying to split hairs, but 99.9% of the time there is something concrete that makes it obvious why one answer is right and the other 4 are wrong. Once you find that, you can move on with total confidence. So while I can't really speak to the prep course (I'm sure it's awesome), if you've hit a wall in your studying and you're not quite sure what you're doing wrong or how to proceed, I highly recommend a session with Nathan. It's probably better for someone who has already gone through the prep material and has a solid footing on the test, because you have the chance to drill down on very specific questions and strategies catered towards your needs. I was starting to get pretty burned out and frustrated with my studying, but after my two hours talking to Nathan, I'm actually ready and excited to start studying again for September! read more

I took Nathan's full online class, and though my experience had a different outcome than expected, I do recommend Fox LSAT. Nathan is a genius when it comes to the LSAT, and he is passionate about teaching others how get the best score possible. He also gives advice about law school admissions and scholarships. He will review your personal statement if you ask. He gives out his phone number and email address, and he is great about responding quickly to questions during all hours of the day and even on weekends. When I first started studying, I spent some time comparing my options to figure out which resources I could trust. Many books and online resources seemed overly complicated, with unnecessary jargon and pointless study cards, leaving me feeling overwhelmed and intimidated by the LSAT. I found Nathan's method to be simpler, and I enjoyed his no-nonsense, humorous approach. He helped me better understand the big picture and gave me confidence that I could master the LSAT. Nathan's online course includes videos of him solving over 100 logic games. This was my weakest section, and through the course, I improved my skills immensely. When I started, I was lucky if I finished one game correctly in 35 minutes. After learning and applying Nathan's techniques, I can finish all / most of the logic game questions correctly within the time limit. Between my undergraduate GPA and the test-taking skills I gained from Nathan's class, I was poised to get a free ride to a part-time law program, while continuing to work my full-time job. However, I walked away before even sending in my applications. The biggest impact Nathan made was helping me to view law school through a more realistic lens and making me more aware of what I would be getting myself into. While some might say the money I put into law school admissions was an expensive mistake, I believe a bigger mistake would have been to put myself through four unnecessarily stressful years of law school. Even if I had gotten a free ride, the cost would still have been too high. I recommend starting with Nathan's free online class (that has video explanations to some of the June 2007 LSAT questions) and listening to his Thinking LSAT podcast (which he co-hosts with Ben Olson, an LSAT instructor in the DC area). First figure out if law school is even right for you. Then, if you like Nathan's style and want more, sign up for one of his classes! Nathan will do everything in his power to help you get a full ride to law school, which more than makes up for the expense. read more

I did Nathan's online LSAT prep class and found it extremely useful. His materials are helpful, clear and most importantly managed to keep me awake and motivated through the process. Like most study prep you only get out what you put in, but his books and classes made it feel manageable and interesting. Nathan is very responsive to emails, so I didn't feel like I was missing out on a great deal by not being able to be there it in person. read more

I took Nathan's LSAT class back in 2013 (I think!... maybe 2012). The skills I gained from his classes are not only useful, but timeless. Some of his strategies helped get me through law school AND the bar exam. I'm now an attorney and felt compelled to give Nathan yet another glowing review. That's how good he is. Look no further for an LSAT prep class! read more

I enrolled in Nathan's online class, used several of his printed LSAT books, and listened to his podcast the Thinking LSAT. My cold diagnostic was a 156 and with self-study, I was able to score a 160 in September. After studying in his online class for 3 months, I was able to score a 165 in December. Nathan's teaching style is frank and clear. He does not struggle to comprehend the most difficult LSAT questions, and he illuminates them easily. His flagship LSAT strategy is accuracy over speed. In addition to his teaching, he offers a plethora of sobering advice on navigating the law school admission game. This knowledge is perhaps more valuable than the class's content because it protects many students from taking on irresponsible debt. I strongly advise anyone and everyone to learn from him--his LSAT teaching and his admission's advice. read more

Did a private Lesson with Nathan right before the September LSAT. He had some great insights into the test and the whole law school application process. Definitely worth the time and money. Wish I had taken his classes... But as I got the score i needed I'm happy to say I NEVER have to take the LSAT again! read more

I entertained the idea of applying to law school throughout my high school/undergrad career but began the process in earnest in late 2016. During this time I found Nathan through his Thinking LSAT blog cohosted with another super-tutor, Ben Olson (check it out before you even decide to sign up for the LSAT). After listening to quite a few episodes, I came to appreciate Nathan's no-nonsense approach to the LSAT, his upfront and well-thought out advice, and of course his sarcastic wit and humor. I figured that since I am potentially making a 6 figure investment in law school, a 3-figure investment in tutoring that will hopefully help me nab some scholarship $$$ and acceptances to better schools would be totally worth it. After reviewing a few different LSAT courses with free-trials, I found that Nathan's approach made the most sense to me and was a great fit for remote, self-study. Honestly, Nathan is so responsive to questions via e-mail and posted in the lesson modules that it is almost like having a private tutor on call (btw we have a three hour time difference and Nathan's responses always seem to be nearly instantaneous somehow!) To get down to the numbers - with 7 weeks of studying left to go, my average LSAT score has ALREADY improved by 12 points, and I feel confident that I can eek out a few more points ahead of the exam date. Of course, this progress has taken a lot of study hours, but I doubt that I would be in this position without the addition of Nathan's LSAT expertise. Aside from actual test-teaching, Nathan is an endless resource for all things law-school related - personal statements, scholarship negotiation... really anything you can think of he probably has an answer to or can hook you up with someone who does. Nathan does everything he can to help students, and his invaluable willingness to help is something you won't find with many tutors - especially not amongst the "corporate" big names you may be familiar with. Overall, the benefits I've gained from my online course with Fox LSAT have far exceeded the sticker price of the class, and I haven't even applied to school yet. I would recommend this course to anyone who is taking the LSAT. read more

Nathan is a fantastic teacher! His course improved my LSAT score by 11 points in a matter of weeks. This had a huge effect on which schools sent me acceptance letters and I'm now in my third year of practice. The LSAT is largely about speed and Nathan is a master at training you to think and work faster. His one on one attention is far more valuable than any commercial guide. read more

I did a private tutoring session with Nathan over Skype, and it was great. He gives you 2 hours to ask any questions and work through difficulties you're having. My main challenge when I went to Nathan was reading comprehension. We discussed a reading comprehension section and went over some of the difficult questions, also talking about good strategies to use on RC. After the private session, I kept a correspondence with Nathan to ask for help on specific lsat questions and for general advice on RC. Tonight, I sent this email: "Hey Nathan, Hopefully my final update on my reading comp progress, but just did a timed section and scored perfect. Thanks for all your help. In three weeks or so I've moved from a best score of -3 and average of about -6 or -7 to a best score of 0 and average over the last week of -2. Jackson" Can't thank Nathan enough, he was a huge help. read more

Nathan Fox is the ONLY LSAT tutor I've ever met whom I would ever trust to teach me or anyone I care about. He cares more about his students than anyone else. He cares so much that he works hard to make sure that you REALLY want to spend 3 years in Law School and then a lifetime in a profession that might not really suit you. He cares so much that he comes in early and stays late and meets students for continued discussions in nearby cafes, bars, whatever to keep discussing questions. He takes phone calls from people who buy his books and want to discuss things further. He writes and rewrites these books to make everything ever more clear and accessible. He tailors his explanations to YOU. He helps his students find motivation to continue -- and know when the law is just not really for them when they realize that they'll be miserable in this field, no matter how talented they might be at solving logic puzzles and analytical reading questions, He is funny. I mean laugh out loud funny. Dry, quick, irreverent, in turns -- and this humor all mixes in with insightful examples. Raising one's LSAT score does take hard work -- hours and hours and hours of study outside of classes. These hours go by faster when one knows that one is doing things right and that Nathan will help one focus ever better in his classes. I've sent dozens of students to Nathan because I trust him completely. You think he got these 5-star reviews by accident? ha! Such things take years of dedication. So, long review short: If you want to really raise your LSAT scores, if you're serious about putting in some effort, if you like to laugh as you learn, if you want to be really truly sure this is the right path for you to march down, and if you want to match the very best materials with the very best methods and most caring teaching, sign up for one of Nathan's classes. read more

I took Nathan's class to prepare for the December 2016 LSAT and am extremely happy I did. Besides really knowing his stuff and being passionate about teaching, Nathan has a sense of humor so it's hard to be bored during his classes. I would recommend taking his classes to anyone who is serious about improving their LSAT scores. Even if you can't make it in to one of his classes, at the very least I would recommend picking up his books (the logic games playbook and logical reasoning encyclopedia were very helpful in my opinion) or even signing up to have online access to some of the classes that he's had recorded. Besides being great at teaching the LSAT, Nathan also provides his students with invaluable information about the law school application process, and his opinions on law school in general. The LSAT (and particularly the logic games section) can seem a bit intimidating at first, but Nathan showed me that it will come easily with enough practice. read more

This is the best investment I have ever made. I went from a 149 diagnostic to a 174. A significant part of that was Fox LSAT. When I started the class my average was a 160 and I was not making any improvements. That a 14 point increase will easily save me 100K. If you put in the work and attend his classes you are going to save money. read more

I did my fair share of research to find the best LSAT prep class, and Nathan's class is definitely the best you can get. His straightforward, no-bullshit approach is what gets the job done. I read all of his books before and during the class, and my score improved by about 15 points. He breaks things down to make even worst questions manageable, which makes the test overall so much less intimidating when you can break it down into familiar pieces. The way he presents information makes the class engaging, time-efficient, and effective. Nathan caters to every student's needs by making sure they understand everything they have questions about or are struggling with. He makes sure everyone knows that he is only an email or a phone call away, so it's like having an instructor right there with you any time you need him. More than anything, Nathan's teaching style is effective - everything he drills in class, you can be sure you'll remember. As I continue studying on my own, I can weirdly hear his voice in my head when I'm evaluating a passage or going through answer choices. I can't recommend this class enough! read more

I found Nathan by listening to his Thinking LSAT podcast, which is a great resource for anyone about to embark on taking the LSAT. I first took a Blueprint Course which was a waste of money and really set in bad habits for taking the test. I took the June 2017 LSAT and only scored 1 point higher than my initial diagnostic. Then I started doing weekly tutoring sessions with Nathan and took the September 2017 LSAT and improved 8 points. Nathan really did help me see the test from a new perspective and understand why I kept getting stuck on the same type of questions. That being said, Nathan is pretty blunt and sarcastic and though he does want you to do well, at times, I would have wanted a bit more of positive encouragement through the process. I'm grateful for his help and I certainly credit him and his methods with helping me improve dramatically. read more

I did one two-hour private session with Nathan. This is obviously a huge $$ investment, but it was worth it for me. I was struggling with logic games and wanted to go over them with an expert, and Nathan fixed my issues in one session. We went over games from about 10 practice tests in rapid succession -- he spotted issues immediately and gave me advice that ultimately helped me get my 99 percentile score. If you're plateauing and looking for tutor, Nathan is probably the best in the business. Just make sure you plan out your session carefully to get the most out of it. I think he's particularly helpful as a private tutor for people plateauing in the 160s - i.e., already understand the test in general but have specific issues. read more

If you want to attend a mock test session guided by someone who I don't doubt is knowledgeable, however, its strongest area is not being able to transmit to others how to learn about the LSAT, then please make sure you take this class. However, if you are looking for someone to explain how the sections of the test work, explains rules or tips, then this is not the class you need. Furthermore, if you don't care to attend a class that if half way through you feel is not what you expected based on reviews and just waste your money, then this is for you. Because even after talking to him and explaining how I felt he came back to me saying he has a NO refund policy. read more

I got a 152 on my first practice test, and ended up getting a 174 on the LSAT. It's because I took Nathan's class. But that's just for starters. Here's what else I got from being in Nathan's class: Scheduled proctored exams (outside of class time) to help with test anxiety and help us stay on top of studying. Help with my personal statement. Savings of over $2,000 on application fees. Acceptance into every school I applied to. Help with navigating how to leverage scholarship offers. A 95% scholarship to my dream school. Here's what I didn't have to do: Memorize "21 Types of LSAT Questions" list or some other BS. Dread being in class - I actually loved every class b/c Nathan is so funny and entertaining. Apply to law school with an LSAT score that wasn't my best (Nathan counseled me to try again after getting a 164 my first time, which was lower than I'd been averaging). Basically, there's a lot that goes into applying to law school (including answering the question, do I really want to go to law school?), and if you take some other course that doesn't do all of this for you, you are really getting shortchanged, and probably paying extra for it. I am so glad I found Nathan and can't say enough good things. On a sidenote: he's new to LA but if you want to see pages and pages of rave reviews, check out his SF Yelp page. read more

I did a tutoring session with Nathan over Skype and used his Logical Reasoning Encyclopedia in preparation for retaking the LSAT. My practice test scores went up with Nathan's help, but what I appreciated most was his approach to teaching. He doesn't sugarcoat anything, genuinely cares about his students, is a great voice of sanity, makes studying fun, and knows the test extremely well, but can still talk about it like an actual human. When you're taking a test as important as the LSAT, you really want the person teaching you to be like Nathan Fox. I was at a decent starting point when I contacted him, but was struggling with an important concept in LR. He went over my June 2015 test with me in detail, told me what to focus on, and went out of his way to help me find a study buddy where I live (I'm on the East Coast) so that I could have all the support I needed to prepare to retake. Nathan picks up on your weak areas and can advise you on what to focus on to improve, which is one of the best reasons to hire a tutor if you're retaking the test. He was extremely helpful! If you're worried about working with someone who isn't in the same time zone, don't. Nathan is incredibly responsive over email and will always take time to respond thoroughly when you have questions. If you want to get a sense of his teaching style before signing up for tutoring, I highly recommend checking out his Logical Reasoning Encyclopedia (it was the most helpful book I used) or his other books or listen to his podcast he does with another teacher. His writing and speaking are peppered with profanity and snark, but it's somehow always appropriate for the situation and hilarious. My friends started listening to the podcast and using his books as well and we've all become fans. I highly, highly recommend Nathan's tutoring and materials to anyone studying the LSAT. read more

DO IT! I could not be happier with my experience. I think you would be hard pressed to find another instructor who passionately enjoys teaching the LSAT as much as Nathan. His no-nonsense, no bullshit approach is perfect. (He's also hilarious!) He's clearly able articulate the logic behind any question or game you are struggling with! My score has gone up 15 points since My first test w/ him and my best test him. He has great tips & tricks that I think clearly separate & put him a cut above any Kaplan or other major test prep company. (I still here his voice in my head when I take my sections, it's a good thing!) In summary - dont want regrets, dont go anywhere else! Go with Nathan! read more

Skip those big test prep companies and take Nathan's class. He doesn't need fancy trademarked strategies like some prep companies who shall not be named. Instead, Nathan teaches you to be a "douchebag" and argue your way through the LR. He teaches you that every game is literally the same game you've seen before (even those "weird" misc games). Nathan is THE single reason I broke into the high 160s (I started at a 144). (Side note, I can also hear Nathan in the back of my mind calling BS on this flawed argument since one possible reason doesn't make it the only reason haha) That aside, Nathan's an awesome guy and goes above and beyond for his students. Nathan's the kind of teacher you can text about a LR problem on a Saturday. This goes beyond the LSAT. He's genuinely invested in you and will help you through the college admissions process too. Also, if you're still not sure about Nathan - check out his Logical Reasoning Encyclopedia and Games Playbook and drill some of your weaknesses. Nathan's less about theory and more about just getting in the mud and DOING a ton of LSAT problems - learning that this test is the same "BS" over and over again whether you're doing Prep Test 1 or Prep Test 78. Whether you're starting out in the 130s/140s or you're trying to get to 175, there's a million things you can learn from Nathan. I could go on and on but stop reading this and sign up already! read more

Nathan was my private tutor for my second and third tries at the LSAT. A good LSAT score was very important for my applications. I had an absolutely terrible GPA from several bad years in community college, so I wasn't going to get into a good law school without a good LSAT score. In my first few months working with Nathan, I didn't do what I should have done. I took days off practicing and didn't implement what he advised for me. My score reflected that. It was in the months leading up to my third shot that he really pushed me into success. He had previously identified my weak spots but did a fantastic job motivating me to do the work. He explained logical reasoning in a way that finally helped me understand. He taught me the diagramming skills necessary to improve my logic games immensely. And he showed me how to do reading comprehension correctly, which also saved me. I had a goal of 162 and scored a 165. With that score, I got accepted to my top choice school, all thanks to Nathan. I strongly recommend working with Nathan if you're getting ready to take the LSAT. His materials are entertaining, his lessons are effective, and he will get you to where you want to go! read more

First off, I challenge you to find an LSAT teacher who is as passionate about the test, as Nathan is! My LSAT journey began with reading his first LSAT primer book, I was intrigued by the title, so into my Kindle, it went. Apprehensive at first, but within the first couple of pages, I found myself actually enjoying reading about the LSAT! Surprisingly, at the end of the book, he even offers for his readers to call or email him with questions, so I did. Now, I'm enrolled in his online class, and working through the rest of his books. They are engaging and keep you focused with his use of fun, but effective word choice. Another approach I find very helpful is his teaching method. He verbally models his thought processes when reading and answering questions. Not to mention, calling "bull" on the readings passages-love that! It helps the learner build arguments with every passage, therefore, training the brain into a "think like a lawyer" mentality, which the LSAT calls for. I'm very pleased with the progress I've made. If you're lucky enough to live in the neighborhood, I would take his in-person class, if not, I highly recommend taking his online classes and working through his books! read more

Highly recommend. Nathan makes a seemingly daunting test into a fun game (about as fun as an LSAT could possibly be). He brakes down the logic (or lack thereof) behind each question, and makes the test almost silly. By changing the way you see the test, and through constant repetition, you will look forward to taking practice tests. Possibly cliche, but by the last week or so of the class you are like a finely oiled LSAT machine, and you know exactly how you're going to score. By the time the LSAT rolled around I was relaxed and focused, which allowed me to do my very best. Thanks Nathan. read more

Nathan is an expert at teaching the LSAT. He is great at seeing students' strengths and weaknesses and coaching in the necessary areas. He is clear in his instruction and provides methods for reasoning through the test. I love that he coaches through Skype! And he has a couple of free videos available online, which is unheard of. He also went above and beyond to connect me with students at one of my prospective law schools. Awesome! read more

Nathan's no BS approach to the LSAT exam has helped rewire my brain. When I first read his book "Introducing the LSAT: The Fox Test Prep Quick & Dirty LSAT Primer," my practice test scores were low and I felt that the LSAT was some foreign exam which required specialized knowledge. The book provided me with a new view - this test can be beaten. As I binged through the "Thinking LSAT Podcast" I came more and more to the realization that the exam is one of aptitude, rather than specific knowledge, which can be honed over practice much like routine exercise. Rather than turning every piece of the LSAT into a mechanistic diagram, I have begun to see behind the curtain and to recognize many of the questions for what they are: tricky language designed to confuse. I was lucky to attend a recent two-day LSAT boot camp with Nathan and I left feeling far more confident in my abilities. I look forward to continuing to work with Nathan, through tutoring, as I prepare for the June 2016 LSAT where I hope to achieve a score that I would not have believed was within my ability a year ago. Thank you Fox LSAT! read more

Let me start this review by saying that the only thing Nathan loves more than the LSAT is teaching the LSAT. So, if you want to get the highest score or even surpass your own expectations, Nathan is the man you want. The way I am getting there is little by little, question by question. Within 4 weeks my score already went up 9 points and that's including the fact that I have a full time job and I don't get to study nearly as much as I want. His style and methodology are exactly what I was looking for. The test can be very, very overwhelming with all the logic, convoluted sentence structure and dense subject matter. Yet, on day one Nathan cuts through all the BS, he was able to put me at ease and say "Look, F**K this test, and F**K your fears, this test is beatable, I am going to show you how to do it. End of story" He has supreme confidence in himself, you just have to feed of that confidence. The name of the game is supreme confidence followed by relentless studying. First of all, he simplifies the course into only 2 books, The Logical Reasoning Encyclopedia and The Logic Games Playbook. Nathans Logical Reasoning technique thought me how to read the questions CRITICALLY by doubting the hell of out every sentence I read. He thought me what to look out for in order to answer them right. For example, we know that we have to look out for the evidence and conclusion, but its of little use to spot them if you don't know to attack the question stem. The same goes with Logic Games, Nathan walked me through the game set ups and rules showing me how the games can be solved. I especially like his conditional rules technique. The games are solvable and after a while I started seeing the patterns. Instead of having a Reading Comprehension book, Nathan showed the class how to read the passage in real time, where to stop and where not to stop, what to look for and what not to look for, after reading several I saw the patterns. I don't know what else to say. I see this review as a PSA. I highly recommend Fox LSAT because Nathan gives it to you straight, no BS. I am a very strong believer of WE FEAR WHAT WE DONT UNDERSTAND, I didn't know the difference between sufficient and necessary condition and Logic Games, among other things. Now I look forward to studying for the LSAT because I understand that shit (pardon my French). Look, as I mentioned, I hated the LSAT because I could not understand it, I know there are people out there reading this that may be at there wits on the verge of giving up. I'm telling you to please not give up or give in. Class was like this, Nathan DID NOT give us the canned lecture, I have heard friends talked about from other LSAT courses. Nathan simplifies the sections using his unique common sense and style. There are no magic tricks, no gimmicks ( just a couple of cool techniques on how to dominate assumption questions for example) you just need to listen to what he is telling you, take studying very, very serious and TRUST THE PROCESS and BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. Nathan answers any and all email questions, this is just invaluable.Mark my words. English isn't my first language, for that reason the LSAT is a more challenging for me. Nevertheless, I already saw a significant improvement and I'm just getting warmed up. One more thing, Nathan has an LSAT Podcast, you know he loves the teaching the damn thing if he has a Podcast. I mean, seriously ?!?!?! Wow, hats off the man. I listen to it for great additional insight and tips. It is called Thinking LSAT Podcast. read more

I enjoyed having Nathan as my LSAT instructor because he is realistic with his expectations and outlook on law school as well as the LSAT. He has lots of anecdotes to share, and isn't afraid to tell you his thoughts. His pedagogy is a diamond in the rough, and unlike any other instructor (be prepared). His class is structured around the average level of the student, but he takes any questions on the spot. With the help of his books and putting in the time, I scored 5+ points higher on my most recent LSAT than my highest score since taking his class 5 weeks ago. I highly recommend Nathan. read more

Nathan's program is hands down one of the best available LSAT prep services on the market. I read quite a few of his books and utilized many of his strategies to improve my LSAT score dramatically. Because of Fox LSAT I went from hoping for admission to law school to earning a full ride scholarship saving me hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt to pay for my JD. I would highly recommend Nathan Fox to anyone looking to not pay for law school. Absolutely fantastic investment. read more
