…I had a very strong upward trend as I became a better student. After that, I worked in a foreign country for a few years and learned studied the language.

Admitted to Lewis And Clark CollegeUsed LSAT Demon to study for the LSAT and got my score up +7 points from my diagnostic in 3 months of daily studying, would definitely recommend.
