Two 99th-percentile scorers. Thousands of hours between us. No gimmicks, no canned curriculum — just focused, one-on-one work that actually moves the needle.
You've done the courses and the books. Your score won't budge. You need someone who can pinpoint exactly where your thinking goes sideways.
You nail practice tests but freeze when it counts. You need a coach who gets the mental game, not just the material.
The 170s take precision. You need a tutor who actually lives at that score range — not one who just teaches about it.
You spent thousands on a generic class with 30 other students. You need instruction built around how your mind works.
I used to teach for a major national LSAT prep company. I left because I got tired of watching smart people get lost in one-size-fits-all programs. I've since logged over 2,700 hours of private instruction and picked up 761 five-star reviews — but what I'm most proud of is the students who came in stuck and left with scores they didn't think were possible.
I'm a J.D. candidate at Georgetown Law, with a B.A. from NYU and an M.A. from Columbia. Before law school I worked at the UN Office of Counter-Terrorism, the Minority Leader's Office on Capitol Hill, CFR, CSIS, and the Middle East Institute. I also work as an admissions counselor and am currently building a college counseling program for schools across the Middle East.
I've coached 60+ LSAT students with an average gain of 15–20 points. I offer a 10-point improvement guarantee.
15–20 minutes. We talk about your goals, your timeline, and where you're stuck. No pitch, no obligation — just an honest take.
No commitmentWe diagnose your strengths and weaknesses and build a roadmap — what to study, when, and how to practice between sessions.
Built around youFocused 1-on-1 or small group work where we break down exactly where your reasoning goes off track and teach you to think the way the test rewards.
Ongoing support"Paul is, without a doubt, the best LSAT tutor I've worked with. I was plateauing for months in the high 150s after an expensive course and two other tutors. I learned more from Paul than from those resources put together."
"Paul has a gift for teaching that comes once in a generation. I went from the high 160s to the high 170s and scored my first 179 on a PT after just a few weeks. Do yourself a favour and pick him."
"Paul completely changed my life. He isn't just a tutor — he's a mentor and a voice of reason. Applied to 12 of the top 14 law schools — all A's so far."
"I worked with him for seven months and received a 178. Sessions often ran over time, and he would only move on when I genuinely understood it."

A great LSAT score opens doors. A strong application walks you through them. We help with both.
I've sat on both sides of the admissions table — as an applicant who got into Georgetown, and as a counselor who helps students put together competitive applications. I know what admissions committees are actually looking for, and I'll help you put your best case forward.
I'm currently building a college counseling program for schools across the Middle East, and I bring that same strategic, big-picture thinking to every law school application I touch.
Brainstorming, drafting, and editing. We help you find the story that makes admissions committees pay attention.
Elias & PaulRealistic targeting based on your GPA, LSAT, and profile. Reach schools, targets, and safeties — no wasted applications.
EliasLaw school résumés aren't like job résumés. We'll make sure yours highlights what matters — and that any addenda land the right way.
Elias & PaulFull application audit before you hit submit. Elias reviews everything with the eye of someone who's been through it at a T14.
EliasPrep companies give you a canned curriculum and a room full of students. We build everything around you — your weaknesses, your schedule, your goal score.
All of them. We've helped students in the 140s build fundamentals and students in the high 160s break into the 170s. The approach adapts to wherever you are.
Most students notice a shift within the first 2–3 sessions. Meaningful score jumps typically happen over 4–10 sessions depending on where you're starting.
All online via Zoom or Google Meet. Screen sharing makes real-time problem walkthroughs easy, and you can work with us from anywhere.
Yes — it's a big part of what we do. Personal statements, résumés, school list strategy, and full application review. Elias brings firsthand perspective as a Georgetown Law student and admissions counselor. Paul has helped dozens of students with personal statements and school selection.
