We encourage students to take the full-length course if at all possible, because this course was designed around the time it takes to teach all of the techniques that are needed to excel on the LSAT. At 80 hours of class time, the full-length course includes many more hours than the more condensed Weekend course, as well as more material, more homework, and more access to help from PowerScore instructors. We have an LSAT Hotline (a toll-free 800 number) for our full-length students that is open 15 hours a week (5 PM to 8 PM Monday through Friday EST). The Hotline is staffed by our regular instructors so we can quickly pinpoint the source of your difficulties. You can also use the Hotline to ask general questions regarding law schools and the admissions process.
A big part of your question revolves around how much discipline you can impose on yourself and your schedule. The full-length course provides the most amount of material, the most amount of time, and the best support options of any of our courses. The full-length course is also far more likely to produce your targeted score increase .
If you decide to take the weekend course, we would strongly recommend that you also purchase our LSAT Logic Games Bible, LSAT Logical Reasoning Bible and LSAT Reading Comprehension Bible. These Books would provide you with extensive explanations of our techniques, and they would provide a fantastic supplement to the weekend course and a self-study program. In the final analysis, the decision comes down to your scheduling and time-management. We believe either of the courses would help you, but you need to feel as comfortable as possible with the choice you make.
