Testimonials
“I went from a 159 LSAT score to a 166 and ultimately a 169 thanks to Mr. Stanback's strategies and test preparation help. I felt confident during my tests because I knew that his strategies are proven to help students be successful. Mr. Stanback's support and encouragement guided me through my LSAT journey, and I attribute this high score and score increase to his help in my studying. I would recommend National Test Preparation Services to any student wanting to excel on their LSAT! Thank you for everything!”

“Hey Mr. Stanback! This is Sophie from FSU. Just wanted to let you know that I took my first PT today since my test (159) in November, and I got a 165, and then a 174 after blind review. I’m aiming for a 169+ this June and your reading comp and LR strategies have really helped me improve these past few months so thank you so much!”

“Before the National Test Preparation Services, I was scared, confused, and stressed. I was graduating early and had no idea how I was going to law school. Everything seemed like it was going too fast and I had no control over my future. However, after my sessions with Professor Stanback I was more comfortable with the LSAT and confident about law school. All of the practice and study guides made me confident about taking the test. This was an amazing service and I am thankful for all of the support and help from Professor Stanback and NTPS.”

“My experience with National Test Preparation Services was phenomenal. In the midst of Co-Vid-19, a busy work schedule and children, my instructor was patient, organized and extremely knowledgeable. The program really works! The tip sheets are key to drilling down the lesson plans. Unfortunately, there were many competing obligations during my studies which limited my time. However, my instructor did not let me fall off. With limited time for studies after each session, the tip sheets pulled me through. I improved my score 12 points!!!
I cannot say enough about NTPS. At NTPS, it is likely you will improve your score on the LSAT. But follow their program and the plan they have for you, it's highly likely you'll be getting scholarship money. REAL TALK!!I”

“Standardized tests have historically been a challenge for me. I tend to have “test anxiety”, and even if I know the content, test results may not always reflect that. Working full-time and being a full-time student meant that I had very limited time to devote to LSAT study prep. I knew that hiring a tutor would be the best option for me, so that I could be guided in how best to approach studying for this test. I was referred to Barry with National Test Preparation Services, and I am beyond thankful that I chose to proceed with his services. I confidently took the LSAT for the first time and scored a 169! Without Barry’s assistance, I can guarantee that wouldn’t have been the case, especially since my diagnostic scoring was in the 140s. Barry broke down each section of the exam and then created a study plan that focused specifically on the areas that I needed the most help with. He even designated time to review tips and tricks to help with my test anxiety. I would highly recommend Barry and National Test Preparation Services to everyone that is preparing to take the LSAT!”

“After attempting the LSAT on my own on two occasions, I was disappointed in my scores and enlisted the help of Barry and National Test Preparation Services for my third time. In 8 sessions I was able to improve my score from 156 to 164. Barry broke down each section and reviewed strategies with me in plain language. He made the curriculum fun and easily digestible which is a great accomplishment considering how grueling preparing for the LSAT can be. Throughout the whole process, Barry was easy to contact and very responsive. He helped me figure out where I was going wrong and we worked together on how to overcome those challenges. Without him and the help of National Test Preparation Services I would not have been able to achieve a score of 164. I would recommend Barry and his colleagues to any student who is preparing to take the LSAT.
Thank you.”

“The Law School Admissions Test is one of the most important factors in the law school admission process. I had the opportunity to take this course at Saint Augustine’s College during the 2006-2007 school year and it made all the difference. I was able to improve my score by 10 points as a result of his knowledge of how to take the test and constant practice. As a result of taking this course I was able to get a competitive score on the LSAT and ultimately gain admission to FAMU College of Law where I graduated in 2010 and successfully passed the Florida Bar Exam. I am currently working as an Assistant Public Defender in Orlando, FL.”

“What impressed me the most about the instructor for National Test Preparation Service’s LSAT prep class is that the class was very well organized. He broke the sections down in our LSAT textbook and we, as a class took our time understanding the concepts of each section we needed to master. Also, having the practice tests scheduled on different days throughout the class helped get a better understanding of the sections we were having trouble with and we applied what we learned up to that point to improve our scores. Taking this class was the best thing that could have happened to me. Not only did I learn how to tackle the LSAT test and improve my score tremendously, I learned how to be more organized, structured and disciplined.”

“Some of the tips for solving the problems on the LSAT that I learned in the National Test Preparation Services LSAT prep course were invaluable. Anybody looking to take the LSAT for the first time or simply wanting to improve their score would do themselves a great justice by taking this class.”

“After I took the LSAT for the first time, some people told me I did not have a chance of getting into law school. When I met the instructor for National Test Preparation Services, he told me that if I was willing to work hard and follow his program, I would get in. I took his LSAT Prep course and now I am proud to say that I am a graduate of theLoyola University School of Law In New Orleans. NTPS not only taught me the strategies and techniques that enabled me to improve my score significantly, they also helped me with my personal statement. Test Prep Plus was invaluable to me. Take the course, you can’t go wrong!”
