How We Work Together

I was a tad skeptical about going back to the basics, but in our first session, Germaine broke down my last practice test and showed me exactly where conditional logic was holding me back. Once I got that together, my inference questions got a lot better too.

I started with the LR, but the RC was actually where I saw the most direct improvement. Mr. Washington explained how I was actually rushing through the passages and it was costing me accuracy on the questions themselves. When I slowed down on the reading, my questions actually got much faster and I went from -7/-8 to like -2 in a month.

Rockstar tutor. The strategies were nice and all but the best part was Germaine really made me feel like my score goal was in reach. His confidence in me was contagious and I actually kinda stopped dreading studying the LSAT :P

I was completely lost before working with Germaine. After just a few sessions, he identified that I was overcomplicating Reading Comp questions by bringing in outside knowledge. Once I learned to stay within JUST the text, my score finally started moving

I genuinely thought I was just bad at RC lol. I was getting around 60ish% right and always felt rushed by the end. Germaine had me focus more on paragraph purpose + overall structure, and that changed basically everything. By the end I was consistently in the 85%+ range

Before working with Germaine, I had already finished a prep course but I was still stuck in the low 160s. He figured out the specific question types where I was still losing points and built our sessions around those specific problems

The LSAT made a lot more sense once Germaine started pointing out how often the same reasoning shows up in totally different questions. Before that I had an entirely separate set of approaches for each LR question, so it was nice to have a more step by step process when I ran into trouble on a weird or difficult question.

I was already scoring pretty well when I started with Germaine, but I could not get into the 175+ range consistently. We went through my misses and realized I kept making basically the same mistake on Strengthen and Weaken questions (not finding the gap) and falling for answers on topic but not connected to the flaw. Once I started recognizing that, these questions got a lot easier
