As far as LSAT studying goes, Blueprint does an excellent job of creating a curriculum that makes material fun to study. In this way, learning what is required for the LSAT became not only more bearable but also easier for me (as compared to my previous attempt to self-study). My course instructor, Ross, kept the class entertaining and was super helpful in both teaching strategies that are demonstrably useful in attaining a higher score, and being available to students during and after the class for any law school/LSAT related advice.

I took the Irvine class with Ross, and I was very happy with it! Ross was able to teach us the material in a way that was easy to understand, while keeping us motivated and confident. The practice questions and practice exams are extremely helpful. Before enrolling in Blueprint, I had tried to study for the LSAT on my own with very little progress. After taking the class, I noticed a 10 point increase from my first practice exam score. I would highly recommend Blueprint, and especially the Irvine class with Ross, to anyone who wants to improve their LSAT score.

If youre contemplating which LSAT test prep company to use, I highly recommend taking Blueprint with Jay Donnell. My score increased significantly thanks to his knowledge and dedication by making the concepts more understandable. The Blueprint system as a whole is a great way to learn the structure of the test and how to approach each type of question. Jay goes beyond that by making the class enjoyable. By taking his instruction and working on your own, increasing your score is definitely attainable. Trust me, Jay is the best way.

The best! I thoroughly enjoyed studying for the LSAT with the Blueprint online program. I went up 10 points and genuinely missed the program after I was done. They are so thorough and so entertaining, and so supportive if you have any questions. I felt completely prepared on test day, they even send you a special 35 minute watch that youre allowed to bring into the test. I highly recommend Blueprint.

Ross was an amazing instructor! If you are looking to see a huge score increase as well a very organized way to study for the LSAT - I would most definitely suggest Blueprint. The course makes the task of studying for the LSAT much more manageable while incorporating jokes which really help to maintain one’s sense of focus. I took the classroom course and bonded with many of my fellow classmates which really helped boost my morale! 10/10 would recommend !

I had an extremely positive experience as a part of Chris Whytes Blueprint LSAT Prep over this past summer (2018). Chris is an incredible instructor who taught through humor and patience. Despite the difficulty of some of the material (because its the LSAT), he kept things cool and always made sure we had a firm hold on the lessons of the day and of the ones before.These classes can seem expensive at first glance, but it really is a worthwhile investment considering that the score change can mean the difference between full funding for law school and none at all.

Studying for the LSAT was an incredibly frustrating and tiring process. For most of us, the type of thinking skills required are complex and foreign. As a result, improving your logical thinking abilities takes time and perseverance! And Blueprint will support you through it the entire way! My instructor Jay Donnell was the real deal. He along with the rest of the Blueprint team live to help others master the LSAT just like they did (you cant be a Blueprint teacher without scoring in the 170s). I truly was surprised of how much personal support I received from Jay even with a class of 50 other students. Additionally, Blueprint provides a fantastic online platform and app to complete your homework. Every test and homework section is provided with in-depth explanations and videos on how to tackle the specific questions so you can improve your strategies. I saw an increase peak of 16 points, which is huge. In the end, you can search, but you will not find a better LSAT test prep company than Blueprint. Its expensive, but if you are serious about law school, do yourself a favor and take this course.

I took the blueprint course online, the studying is completely on yourself but its not like pulling teeth. The videos are fun to watch, and the two instructors are a hoot. I improved my score by 8 points over 2 months. This was while taking vacations, and going out most nights. Hard work is easy when you use the schedule tool in blueprint.

Blueprint is by far the best LSAT test preparation out there, and Jay is probably one of the best instructors. His class made the material interesting and engaging. Very few people actually enjoy studying for the LSAT, but Blueprints curriculum manages to make it as fun and enjoyable as possible. Blueprints approach to the material was really helpful for me, as I jumped 18 points from my very first LSAT score to my score on the October 2013 test. I recommend Jays class to everyone.

From day one, Jay and the Blueprint team made me feel comfortable and at ease with the whole LSAT process. They gave me the necessary tools to not only increase my score dramatically from my first practice exam, but to also feel as though I can actually conquer the LSAT. Jay gave the class a contagiously positive energy that is not easy when trying to teach everyone about the break down of logical reasoning and reading comprehension. He made coming to class a lot easier because learning new material no longer became a chore. I greatly recommend taking this course with Jay if you are serious about getting a high LSAT score.

Blueprints system is incredibly amazing but, I couldnt have done as well as I did without Jay. Jays style of teaching made the material interesting and easy to digest making something as difficult and taxing as studying for the LSAT to not seem that bad. He really cares about each one of his students individually and tries to give each of one them their best chance to succeed. I can definitely say that I would not be in the position I am where I was able to perform as well as I did on the LSAT without Jays help. He truly is an LSAT Wizard! If are looking for the best LSAT prep course and the best LSAT instructor you cannot go wrong by investing in Jay Donnell!

Blueprint LSAT Preparation is by far the best and most entertaining LSAT prep course available. I have and will continue to recommend it to friends who are contemplating attending law school. My instructor, Jay Donnell, was absolutely superb. He was funny, witty, and kept the entire class entertained with his jokes, helpful tricks, and anecdotes to help us master difficult concepts. Whenever we had questions, no matter how trivial they seemed, he was more than willing to guide us through them and made sure we were well prepared for test day.On the first day of the course when all students take a full length LSAT exam without any preparation or knowledge of what will be on the test, I was unfortunately surprised when I received my low score, as were the vast majority of students. However, after a few weeks with Jay as my teacher, I took my first practice LSAT and my score skyrocketed and continued to do so throughout the course with Jay’s guidance.I felt extremely confident and prepared when I took the actual LSAT exam. In the end I was admitted to the top 20 law schools, including my dream school, Harvard Law. I am so thankful I chose Blueprint; I HIGHLY recommend this prep course and especially Jay as an instructor.

Blueprint was the right decision for me. I took the San Diego course withNick. He did an excellent job, he was knowledgeable, informative, able to answer our questions, and able to provide us with strategic methods of gaining LSAT skills. The designers ofBlueprint understand where the LSAT student is coming from. They understand the mental aspects of a student being introduced to the LSAT, and becoming accustomed to it. Thus, they have tailored the course, material, books, lessons, and homework with these mental aspects in mind. It gives a feeling of Blueprint is along the path of the LSAT journey with you. Might sound dramatic, but its how I felt. I now know the LSAT and how to tackle every question type that one might encounter on the LSAT, I think that is good evidence of Blueprints effectiveness. I personally, probably could have used more than 2 months to study, because for me, at the end of the two months, everything was just starting to click for me. The point is that I have now acquired an LSAT foundation from Blueprint.

I can sincerely say that Jay Donnell at Blueprint was a better teacher than most, if not all, of the professors I have had at college. He is incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and motivating. Jay and the Blueprint team did not simply make preparing for the LSAT doable by providing strategies, structure, and materials, but he also made the class fun and converted the onerous task of studying into a stimulating challenge. I cannot say enough positive things about Blueprint and Jay, and would recommend the program to fellow law school aspirants without hesitation.

Preparing for the LSAT is a daunting experience, and you ought not go at it alone. I decided to go with Blueprint, since they often made a presence at my university and showed that their instructors were both knowledgeable and personable. My instructor, Jay, lives and breathes LSAT prep, and literally has a photographic memory, to boot! His friendly demeanor really made the class way more enjoyable and helpful than I otherwise would have expected. Although the cost of the course is a bit steep, I firmly believe that you are getting what you pay for (providing you are determined and actually put in the leg work of studying, homework, and practice exams). With law school becoming ever more competitive, you need to make sure youre prepared to score well on the LSAT. Im confident that Blueprint will get you there!

I took one of the summer night courses this summer through Blueprint with the instructor Jay Donnell. Having never looked at anything relating to the LSAT I had no idea what the course material would be like or what type of instructor would be tasked with teaching it. While learning and studying for the LSAT is in no way a fun thing to do, it was very refreshing to have a teacher that was engaging, brought life to the material, funny, and most importantly incredibly knowledgeable when it came to the material. Jay made sitting through the 4 hour classes after a long day of work much more tolerable than I could imagine they would be with another instructor. He always would stay after class and talk to anyone and clarify anything they still had questions on. He would encourage people to ask questions if they were not understanding something instead of simply moving on so that he could cover more material. His genial attitude helped people come out of their shell and engage more with the material. He is a also a great tutor if that is a route that you are interested in going down, I know that it certainly helped me. The lesson materials are formatted in a very easy to understand way and provided very useful diagrams when it came to specific ways on how to do things. Their online interface is awesome and each lesson has videos that cover the entire lesson in case you miss a class or simply want more instruction on certain things. If you answer a question wrong on the online portion it will not only tell you which one is the right answer and explain it, it will explain why the answer you chose was wrong. They also have about 25 practice exams for you take at your leisure throughout your course. Blueprint hits LSAT prep out of the park, and the majority of people in my LSAT testing room all had the blueprint blue watches so that sentiment is clearly shared by a lot of people preparing to take the test in Orange County. Their location is very easy to get to (it was great for me because I work on the same street) and the company as a whole was always incredibly accessible and helpful if you have any questions about anything. Having Jay as my instructor was definitely the highlight of my course and would recommend anyone contemplating taking the LSAT to prepare for it with Blueprint and Jay.

I took the Fullerton Blueprint class with Chris Whyte and I could not recommend him more highly! Chris is an excellent instructor, and really explains the concepts in understandable terms to make sure you have a strong foundation in understanding the question types before diving in to taking practice tests. He makes himself very available if you need clarification on anything via email or after class, and I felt extremely confident walking into my LSAT because of his course! Additionally, I loved the online resources where Blueprint allows you to tailor your practice time to the areas that you most need to focus on, so that you can best start adding up those points. Great program, great class, and excellent instructor! I could not recommend Chris and Blueprint more highly!

Simply the BEST when it comes to LSAT prep! I signed up for Blueprint after it was recommended to me, and I couldnt have been happier with my decision. To top it off, Jay was the perfect instructor. In three months of studying, I always looked forward to going to his class, and it absolutely paid off. Take this course, and you will understand the LSAT inside and out by the time your test day comes around. If you dont, you will be at a disadvantage. Highly Recommend!

BLUEPRINT, BLUEPRINT, BLUEPRINT! When I decided to begin studying for the LSAT, I began my research on which program would be best for me. It was like Blueprint had its own cheer leaders, everyone I asked and talked too recommended Blueprint. I decided to go with Blueprint and I was not disappointed. Studying for the LSAT is a challenge. Its an emotional roller coaster ride and can be very discouraging. You need the right team by your side during this essential time. Blueprint is experienced, well prepared to address every students concerns, worst nightmares and questions, like, Should I cancel my exam?Jay, was my instructor! He made the experience fun and engaging! I 100% recommend Blueprint. I am grateful for their work and appreciative that they passionately care for each student.Blueprint is the way to GO!

Jay was easily the best test prep instructor I have ever had. LSAT preparation is an extremely long and frustrating process and Jay impressed me each and every day with his ability to break down and simplify the complex logical principles underlying LSAT questions. He was always on top of things, always prepared, and always ready with an answer for why a question was right and what made it wrong. I was also very impressed with how much he genuinely cares about seeing his students succeed and he definitely goes the extra mile to make sure you have everything you need to prepare adequately. Jay was a phenomenal instructor and I would absolutely recommend his course to anyone wishing to score competitively on the LSAT.

Haha I dont really know what to write here other than that Jay and the Blueprint class/system is great. I really enjoyed going to class, which is a first for me. I mean really, who likes going to class? But honestly, one of the best experiences. My score jumped from around 154 into the mid 160s. Even if youre score doesnt jump as much as you hope, Jay and Blueprint know what theyre doing. Jay is a great teacher. Hes engaging, pretty funny and hes knowledgeable, not just on LSAT things. Trust me when I say that studying for the LSAT is a boring experience but Jay does a great job making it interesting and keeping people motivated right up until you take the test. If youre looking for a fun and rewarding LSAT prep experience, definitely give the Irvine Blueprint location a look, itll be well worth what you have to pay.

I took Chris Whytes Fullerton course and it was so helpful! It was a very friendly and upbeat environment and Chris makes everything on the test accessible! I started off confused and defeated by my scores and ended feeling confident and prepared going into the actual exam! The skills and strategies that you learn in this course are extremely helpful and really go a long way in helping you pick up those points. Chris friendly and positive attitude made it easier to sit through those long classes. Hes also always available and willing to talk to you about your individual struggles before and after class. Definitely recommend!

The class is awesome. Jay is a very smart dude and hes got a firm understanding of this material and breaks down the concepts very well for everyone who is engaged.I see below that there is another person who is using my first name to denigrate the instruction. Im ashamed that the first time I find someone with the same name as me its when hes using some faulty logic in his reasoning to make his claim. When you take Jays class and are engaged, you wont make the same mistakes in your reasoning that that user makes, which is at the heart of the course. And I find it amusing that he suggests alternatives all the while compounding on the flaw in his reasoning…What Blueprint offers is an effective and detailed approach at efficiently identifying the proper strategy to be applied to the questions and material involved with the LSAT. The onus is on you to practice that approach so you understand how to effectively apply it.For anyone to understand this material, practice must be done at home. If you find that paying someone as a tutor to make you practice the Blueprint material, then thats your way of learning the material. Personally, I find myself doing better first learning the approach during the class instruction, making sure Ive properly grasped it, and then catching and learning from my mistakes when Im with myself at a coffeehouse going through material in a very methodical and slow approach and developing a faster pace as I continue to practice.Bottomline, the help is available during instruction. In fact, Jay urged his students to speak up as often as possible to make sure each one understood the breakdown of the different concepts that Blueprint has organized in their curriculum.I enjoyed my experience with Jay and Blueprint and I hope you find his instruction, and his wit, enlightening and entertaining as I did.

I dont know what that one star review was thinking. Blueprint is pricey but so are the other LSAT prep classes like Score It Up! or Testmasters.That being said, does it do what it intends? I believe it does. For me personally, my score increased by about 10-11 points. Others that I know in the class improved as well. On a side note, I couldnt even tackle the logic games section before this class.My instructor was Jay and he was wonderful (I used my one free transfer to transfer from San Diego to Irvine due to moving). He pointed out certain things to remember for each type of question in both Logical Reasoning and Logic Games. I dont have much to say about reading comprehension, but thats because that was my best section of the LSAT. Aside from his teaching methods, the way he speaks engages the class and makes the 4 hour lessons bearable and even fun at times.The homework is a lot but if you can do it all, you can definitely improve (I admit that I slacked a little on it because of my 2 other summer school classes).

Blueprint was very well organized in the material presented. The instructor, Jay, somehow made it fun to go to the four hour sessions. He was attentive to the students and cared for our success in the course and beyond. Jay was always willing to help, on and off the clock. Thank you for the great learning experience.

Jay is hands down the best LSAT instructor Ive ever had. Making the test material engaging is a challenge but Jay pulled it off flawlessly. Whenever there is confusion on a particular concept he takes the time to pause and make sure that the student who is struggling or is confused has numerous examples and different explanations with which to understand the concept. Hes always there when you need him (trust me, this is ridiculously helpful when its 4am and youre freaking out). Overall, the curriculum is helpful but the difference is made in the instructor, and Jay is an amazing one.

I took the Blueprint course over the summer and Jay Donnell was my instructor. I can say with total confidence that he is one of the best LSAT instructors. He is very knowledgeable and very helpful. He also makes LSAT fun, which is something people don’t usually expect from LSAT courses. I increased over 20 points in less 3 months all thanks to Jay.If you are planning on taking the LSAT, you will benefit a great deal if you sign up with Jay. I was very nervous about this test because I had no prior knowledge and I had never done even one LSAT question before, but the way Jay taught the course simplified the LSAT for me. He also gives you helpful advice on how to study and if you are freaking out how to calm yourself. Do every LSAT question the way he teaches you and you will improve. Go to every class session because he mentions some tips and some phrases that clicks with your head and once you see the similar concept, you get that question right!

I took the summer course with Jay and couldnt be happier with my experience. The class not only teaches you how to tackle the test material in a structured and organized way, it also prepares you for the non-academic part of the test, like strategy, mental preparation, and a lot of the basics of how the test is administered, as well as valuable insight into the law school application process. Blueprint offered a lot of different options for class schedules and even while working one full-time job and one part-time job I was able to find something that fit. Jay was genuinely concerned with every single students personal performance and well-being, going above and beyond just teaching the material and walking out the door. He has a full understanding of the test and I was especially impressed with how he could manipulate one question into every different type of question the test could offer (like, what would this question sound like if it were this kind instead of that? - BOOM off the top of his head). I would also like to personally thank him for helping me manage my mental breakdowns (lol... but seriously). When the day of the test came, I felt as prepared as I could have been and my score throughout the course improved 16 points. All-in-all, totally worth it, and highly recommended. :)

Blueprint LSAT Prep is by far the best prep program Ive ever experienced. They really have an exceptional understanding of the LSAT exam and know exactly how to dissect and teach it for your maximum success. If youre even on the fence, you should talk to Jay. Hes an experienced LSAT teacher and LSAT taker. Hes the perfect blend of exact, knowledgeable, fun, and serious that youll need to gain major points on your LSAT score. (Hes the Superman to my Batman! #Halloween).The Blueprint methodology is simple to follow and has been proven. Ive personally taken the program twice and have been happy with my studies thus far. If you have any questions about the program from a veteran student, dont be shy to ask. Im happy to let you know how great my Blueprint was. :)

Blueprint is the best LSAT class you will ever take...EVER! The course takes the pressure off of the test and breaks it down in an easy and coherent manner. Jay is one of the best if not the best LSAT instructor for this test. I strongly recommend the course to any and all that ask, but specifically recommend Jay as an instructor.

Honestly they are doing some good stuff here at blueprint. This being said it definitely doesnt work unless you work it but if you do put in the appropriate amount of effort you WILL see a significant increase in your score. I had Jay as an instructor and he was great! Kept the class very lively and even made it fun to study for the LSAT. He really got me into believing that he was genuinely interested in improving MY score even though we had a class of about 50 people. I am sure the other instructors are also good at creating this personalized environment. Also, the class/instructor does a good job of making sure you have the little things like making sure what you should bring with yourself on test day, getting accustomed to your testing location, and things of that nature that I truly would either forget about or just not care about because I am so focused on just preparing for the test. Overall great experience

The Blueprint LSAT prep system is fantastic - the way Blueprint divides up the material is both intuitive and effective, and all of the resources available to Blueprint students are immensely helpful - and much better than the Powerscore bibles, in my opinion. Jays class in particular was great - Jay is an awesome guy who is able to teach very effectively while maintaining a fun classroom environment, and he genuinely cares about each of his students. I saw a huge bump in my score from my diagnostic exam to my final practice test, thanks to Jay and the Blueprint system. If you have the opportunity, it would be a mistake not to take Jays class.

My score has jumped up 20 points from the first time I took a practice test. I cant say that I would have done that without Jay and the Blueprint prep course. Hard work and committed study are also two very important things but I would not have made the strides I did if not for the course. I highly recommend Jay as a teacher. He very well could be the next most interesting man in the world.

Blueprint showed that I was just a small fish in a big lake. I came in with a load of confidence, but Jay Donnell (my instructor) was quick to put me back to earth. Through out the course we worked together to build back my morale. And I thank them for that, because the LSAT is no easy challenge. Jay can not be compared to your average university professor because he actually relates to the process that we are going through. More humble than braggadocious about his life experiences that he brings into the classroom. Jay is the exemplary instructor that assists any individual even though he has many other students. When I thought I had plateaued on my scores, he offered great advice on pushing ahead.Blueprint provides the most bang for your buck in studying for the LSAT, and with Jay teaching it was made better.

I took the Riverside class with Chris Whyte and I would highly recommend Blueprint, and Chris class in particular, to anyone who wants to improve their LSAT score. Blueprint provides practice materials, drills, videos and homework that breaks down the information in a way that is easy to understand, and they have clear strategies to tackle every question type youll see on the LSAT. I studied for at least 6-8 hours each day and didnt come close to running out of practice questions or exams, so you wont need to purchase any supplemental materials if you take Blueprints live course. Chris made the class fun and helped us build all the skills needed to succeed. He took the time to work with students before and after class to address our individual needs and he kept us motivated along the way. I actually looked forward to class, which is saying something considering how stressful studying for the LSAT can be! I saw a 10-point increase on one of my practice exams and felt confident on test day thanks to Chris and Blueprint.

Not only is the blueprint prep course well taught, and scheduled, the instructor that I had at the Fullerton course was wonderful at keeping the students engaged and interested. The class helped me increase my score substantially, and I would highly recommend enrolling to anyone who would like to increase their LSAT score.

Jay is a wonderful teacher. I took Blueprint twice. Not because it wasnt good enough but because I did not have the time to put in to be fully satisfied the first time around. Even still, both experiences produced great growth and my score raised immensely from the unstudied state to finished the second time. Words of advise though: do not take this course unless you have the time and dedication to study hours every week. That same advice goes to any prep course company though. Generally, those that will complain about this place either did not study enough or simply do not have the aptitude required and would do bad no matter how they prepped. Buleprint at least keeps it simple, fun, engaging, and clear cut. In this course I not only prepped well for my LSAT but I also greatly increased my logical reasoning abilities in life. Even though I eventually decided that law school is not in my future, I do not regret paying for, commuting to (From Long Beach to take from Jay), or taking this course. Glad I chose blueprint.

Attended the Spring class and had Branden as our instructor. Highly recommend his class. He knows the topic very well, very approachable, nice, knowledgeable and helpful. His tips are very helpful.

I took the Blueprint course in Irvine, CA with Jay Donnell, and it totally exceeded my expectations! Ill admit, before I began the course I thought classes were going to be long, dry, and (to put it bluntly) a bit boring. Its LSAT prep, what else was I supposed to expect? However, it was the complete opposite, thanks to Blueprint methods, and thanks especially to Jay. Jay is passionate about teaching, he truly cares about each and every student in that classroom, and he is one of the most intelligent and qualified LSAT instructors around. And his jokes, stories, side-notes, tangents, honest opinions, witty comments, and great advice make classes an awesome combination of life lessons and excellent LSAT prep. Jay made classes so interesting and engaging that I honestly looked forward to going those two nights a week, and the entire course went by so fast (almost too fast). Knowing every students name by the end of the first class, ordering pizza for us on multiple occasions, bringing in candy for Halloween, staying late to help anyone who had questions, always willing to talk outside of class...if Jays your instructor, youre in great hands.

First of all, this is not meant to insult or disrespect Jay. Hes a great guy who cares about his students, but I just dont like the company he works for. Its nothing personal Jay. That being said, Blueprint may be one of the most overrated LSAT prep companies.Blueprint is also very expensive. The company also relies on too much fun and humor. I am not saying that studying should be miserable. But too much fun will not help you improve.You might be better off getting a private tutor. That way the teacher only focuses on you alone. You wont share a teacher with 40-50 other students.If you want to do a class first, you might want to consider Testmasters or Manhattan LSAT prep. Theyre probably just as mediocre, but they dont rip you off AS MUCH. Blueprint might be the most expensive one. Research it as much as possible. Talk to as many people as you can. Dont fall prey to Blueprints wonderful advertisements on your campuses. Personally, I recommend a private tutor who charges a reasonable rate. You should also take as many real LSAT tests from past years. The more timed tests you take, the better. I wish you all the best of luck. However, working hard and studying efficiently will raise your score way higher than luck can. You can do it. Now go out there and get it done.

As someone who has taken an LSAT course through other test prep. companies and who has picked through materials from others still, I can say without a doubt that Blueprint blew its competitors out of the water! My course was instructed by Jay Donnell - his knowledge of the test, real life examples, and relatable personality made the course something that I looked forward to each week. If you are looking for a solid foundation and a significant score increase, Blueprint is the way to go.

Hunger and fate led me to Blueprint. As a hungry college student I stumbled across a room that read LSAT Prep - Free Pizza. While my ego urged me not to interrupt the speaker, Ive realized that when hunger calls youll sit and listen to anyone.As a non-native speaker from the outset the LSAT was particularly difficult for me. However, having taken Blueprint and learned from the LSAT guru known as Jay Donnell I managed to raise my score significantly. Jays gift of breaking down complex material combined with Blueprints systematic approach is a recipe for success. I guarantee, if you work hard, your score will increase tremendously as did mine. Thanks to Jays help I have been accepted to numerous top-tiered schools and will be starting law school in the fall. If you have any questions about my experience with Blueprint feel free to contact me. Cheers.

Blueprint not only helped me immensely with the LSAT, but also overall in life. It is an amazing program and part of that is because of Jay. He not only teaches in a way that everyone can understand, but also makes it fun. I highly recommend any who is thinking about taking the LSAT, to take this course.-Riahna Bacchus

I remember when I took a Kaplan class for my SAT and it was very boring and hard to pay attention. After taking Blueprints LSAT class with Jay, I could not imagine going anywhere else to prepare for this test. Jay not only has expert knowledge of the material, he can make it interesting in ways one could not imagine. This allows you to really pay attention and learn the material in a fun and interactive way. Thank you Jay.

Blueprint is really the best LSAT prep course out there. I was referred by several friends and family members who each gave raving reviews. After experiencing the class, I must say they werent wrong. I came into this without any knowledge and was completely overwhelmed, but Blueprints study plan really breaks down the test to where its not scary or intimidating anymore. With Jays instruction, and the Blueprint guide, this entire process became a lot more fun and worthwhile. Thank you Jay and Blueprint!

My tutor just talked about his own problems. Total waste of time no progress.

This is a review SPECIFICALLY for Jays Blueprint class in Newport. If youre looking at signing up for this current class, dont hesitate. Even if you miss the first couple of classes, its worth it in order to gain comprehensive knowledge of the LSAT. The LSAT is a beast of a test; if youre considering self-studying just know that with Jays instruction youll be able to grasp the intricate concepts 100x faster than on your own. I self-studied for several weeks before the test. In Jays class, we covered the same material I did in several weeks, within a couple lessons.With Jay, you get a great instructor, who demands effort from students, keeps track of every single individuals prowess (no small feat), and also tries his best to come up with multiple explanations to cater towards different types of learners. We even get pizza in class a couple times, and he sprinkles the lessons with humor in order to keep lessons relevant, and interesting. Sign up for Jays class, you wont regret it! Even if youre considering picking up the class a couple lessons late, it would be worth it!

Taking LSAT prep with Jay from Blueprint opened my eyes to a whole new world that I didnt think was possible. Just the thought of the LSAT itself can be intimidating enough to make you want to quit but with the help of Jay and Blueprint, I saw that anything was possible if you just worked hard and followed their study plan. I definitely recommend anyone who is serious about law school to take prep classes with him!

Forget Kaplan, TestMasters, or Princeton Review. Blueprint gives you the core skills you need to master the LSAT. They helped me go from average to top tier and Ive gotten some pretty tasty offers from schools around the nation. Jay Donnell in the Orange County branch is the man with the master plan. Hes concise and approachable which is huge when you run into trouble. His teaching style is easy, he has a great sense of humor and hes a solid dude. If I had to do it over again, I wouldnt hesitate to sign up with Blueprint.

This is an expensive course - but it is worth it. I took the classroom course and really benefitted from the instruction in class along with all of the online materials.I took this course with Chris Whyte. He is the only instructor at Blueprint that I have interacted with, so he is the only one I can speak on, but I have nothing negative to say about him or the course.Chris is a fantastic instructor who really cares about the students in his classes. Chris spent a lot of time making sure that we all understood the material. He was always available before and after class for questions and he made himself available via email as well. It seemed like my class had a lot of questions and he answered all of them with a smile and really made sure that people understood the topic before moving on. Chris used humor to keep us engaged and entertained for the long class period and I think I really benefitted from his class. If I was going to take the course again, I would go back and take it with Chris.If you have the opportunity to take this class, do it. And if you have the opportunity to take it with Chris, even better!

Ross is a great instructor! He was able to answer my questions concerning any issues and confusions I had with the material and also kept the class extremely entertaining and informative.

I took the Irvine course with Ross and it was the best experience. Not only did he expertly break down the sections and question types of the lsat, he did so in such a way that made the material easily comprehensible. I high recommend this course if you are looking to better your lsat score

I spent the first 2 months checking all available LSAT prep courses and materials. Ive checked Manhattan LSAT prep, 360 LSAT, TM and 7Sage. They were all fine, yet too detailed or too broad for my blood. I was looking for a course that 1. will keep me motivated 2. will cover the methodology behind it, one I can implement in time of stress and anxiousness (LSAT day) and 3. I will truly be able to comprehend, and make it a 2nd nature. Blueprint, armed with Chris Whyte, who I first met in a tutoring session, and Ross Rinehart who was my in class Instructor, fulfilled my expectations and more! Thank you, Blueprint, for being the best money can buy =)

I cant imagine taking the LSAT without using Blueprint as a prep course. Jay made the classes fun and explained the concepts in a way that makes it possible to excel in taking the test. Thanks Jay and Blueprint!

In short: the people at Blueprint are funny and smart, and after two months of dedicated studying, my score jumped 18 points.Jay Donnell is a dedicated teacher. He knows the material inside and out, and he has multiple ways of describing each problem. After class he would stay after for fifteen or twenty minutes, answering individual questions, and he was always game for a joke or story during class. For example, during Halloween one of my classmates dressed up as Batman, and Jay had him read a Reading Comp paragraph in the Batman voice, and the entire class took at least five minutes to calm down from laughing so hard.The Blueprint method is clear and thorough, and laced with cartoons, sarcasm, and ridiculous jokes, which provide a needed contrast to the logic problems you face. You have access to pretty much every single question that LSAC has ever released, and many different explanations for each question. I was nervous on test day, but Blueprint had so thoroughly prepared me that by the time I opened my test book, it felt like just another practice test.This class is a significant investment of time and money, but ultimately, if youre aiming for a high LSAT score to get into a good law school, its completely worth it.

I feel dumber now that I’ve wasted my money.

It was an overall great experience. Would definitely recommend Blueprint to anyone who is serious about the LSAT.

Jay was a fantastic teacher of the LSAT. I feel like in order to teach the LSAT you have to really love what the content of it is and you can really tell that Jay enjoys teaching the LSAT. Honestly, it wasnt that hard to choose Blueprint when looking for a course because its very unique. I have friends who took other courses like Kaplan and Princeton Review and they all told me that they werent getting it very well, or that their instructors were very condescending about the kinds of questions they asked, or the instructors were boring, even monotone and have to wonder what effect that would have on their score. Blueprint and the course that Jay taught were nothing like the other courses (i.e. Kaplan) that my friends described. Jay made learning about the LSAT easy to relate to, realistic and humorous. Jay really cared about the success of everyone in the class and he went to great lengths to make sure we got enough experience as possible before the actual test. I was so prepared, that I wasnt even nervous the actual day of the test which is definitely not normal for me. Not only does he teach you the LSAT but I feel like I was also taught how to cope with it and to be in the right mind set for it, confidence wise, because knowing the material is one thing but being confident in the fact that you know it is a completely different thing and I think Jay did a fantastic job with not only teaching us the material in the LSAT and making sure that we knew it; he also did his best to ensure that we were confident that we knew that material as well. It is well known that the LSAT is an extremely difficult test with very tricky questions but Jay was able to explain the LSAT material in a way that he somehow made very simple to understand. Lastly, he didnt just help us with the LSAT, when we had questions about the Law School admissions process, he was very helpful in addressing our concerns in regards to every aspect of the admissions process. I would happily refer ANYONE who asked about LSAT courses to Blueprint

Highly recommend taking this course! Jay goes above and beyond being just an LSAT instructor and doesnt limit himself to being a resource during just your mon/wed class schedule. He makes himself available to answer any questions and provide support for any emotional freakouts that his students experience, whether its related to LSATs or law school applications.Bonus: He encourages students to work together, which was pretty cool because i ended up forming a study group with some awesome people that made the 3 months of studying bearable and actually somewhat fun/enjoyable :)

I found this course extremely helpful and Jay definitively worries about his students doing well on the LSAT. Besides being a great instructor during the class time he also allocates some time to answer to questions you may have on the law school application process or specific questions about the LSAT.

After hearing only positive things about Blueprint, I took the jump and luckily ended up enrolled in Jays class. To be brief, I dont regret the money, time nor energy I spent with the program. I jumped over 15 points with just 2 months of studying (ok honestly 1 month of really dedicated studying, sorry mom and dad) and this fall Ill be attending my goal law school. Thank you, Sensei Jay.My two pieces of advice to future students of the LSAT would be to ask as many questions as your instructor can handle and take as many full, timed practice tests as your brain can handle.TLDR; Blueprint? Yes.

Ross has been a very wonderful instructor; I am so glad to have met him and to be taught by him as well. Although I dont know much about the other BP instructor that serves Irvine/South OC, I highly recommend (comparatively due to you not wanting to risk having a bad experience) that you see Ross in order to ensure youll get not only a highly competent instructor, but someone who truly is very sociable and caring. This level of compassion and care that Ross has portrayed such as him being concerned of my progress and him wanting and actually answering my question with great detail is usually not attainable with most TAs/professors; thats how good he is. He has definitely helped me (either upfront in person before/after class or via email) with all of my questions and concerns while he has been hospitable towards me, especially via email when I couldnt show up for the remaining classes due to my condition. Also and this is coming from an alumnus of UC Irvine: the people from CSU Fullerton are very friendly and down to earth while being respectful that youll take the class with as Ross OC class is nearby; very important if you dont want to be around condescending, anti-social types (not just the awkward, reclusive types but also the condescending fake preppies/yuppies who are extremely judgemental that only want to hang around themselves while they mock others - UCI is filled with both of these rude types, once again this is coming from someone who went there)With that said, not only is Ross very kind and respectful, but he doesnt tolerate any rudeness, mocking, condescension nor disrespect which is highly appreciative of him. Therefore if youre the type who needs to ask lots of questions, please look no further as Ross and even the classmates he teaches are both very patient and tolerant, unlike some of the more impatient, spoiled, condescending rude types that plague Orange County.Otherwise, the core content along with the technology provided towards your LSAT learning experience is superior towards the other LSAT programs, especially Kaplan. Some of the tech/aids that are provided to you online are Law School Admissions estimators to help you get a probability according to your LSAT and GPA scores, online randomized questions from every past question (I assume) that will help quiz you for the necessary practice you need either online on your computer or via iPhone app, and even a program/section of the site that keeps track of your test scores while it calculates the score youre most likely going to get on the LSAT. Aside from the tech, the classroom material (also all the lectures are all available online as its part of your classroom course) is thorough while teaching you the necessary knowledge of conquering the LSAT such as seeing the word Many on a question and realizing it doesnt refer to a majority but less than 50% of the audience mentioned on the question. Once again, this is all brilliantly taught by Ross.One more good tip (and its great & ideal that I provide the actual out the door (including taxes and fees) prices vs the other reviews which come off as incomplete that they dont provide to you the actual financial upfront costs of attending): If you qualify for the LSAC LSAT waiver/scholarship (that is, you make less than a certain amount along that you provide to the LSAC your W2 along with their application), you can take the Blueprint Classroom course for half off which is $850 out the door ($1700 is the full price). You just have to provide Blueprint your acceptance to the LSAC scholarship/waiver and theyll automatically grant you the price of half off which is their (Blueprint) scholarship. $850 for a few months of high quality LSAT instruction with Ross is not only a phenomenal deal, but the important part is that it is the most entertaining and fun LSAT course youll ever take as Blueprint realizes that learning must be fun and exciting in order to properly learn which not that many teachers at High School/University dont offer nor understand.

The course did not help. When inquiries were made about their guarantee we were told by customer service that even if the score is raised by one point, students will not get a special discount when repeating the class.
