Could you talk a bit about Velocity LSAT: What’s your philosophy? What type of instruction do you offer? How are you different from other LSAT prep courses?

Velocity LSAT is online video instruction, which makes our course very flexible and easily repeatable. Our video library contains roughly 600 video clips covering every concept needed for success, and every single kind of question the the LSAT asks. It’s a comprehensive investigation into the LSAT, and our video lessons give detailed, specific instructions for how to kick this test in the nuts.

I love this model because it gives you the freedom to prepare on your own terms anywhere in the world, any time of day. You get to decide which videos you want to watch, and you choose when — and in what order — to watch them. In other words, our course lets you prepare by yourself, but not alone.

I’d say there are four core principles that set us apart from the rest of a crowded marketplace (these are in addition, of course, to our commitment to freaky dance moves, which is ongoing, and — luckily for Earth — free of charge).
