Small Class Sizes
Ivy Global limits the enrollment of LSAT classes so that the student-to-instructor ratio is never greater than 10.
For classes with more than 10 students, we staff the class with an additional instructor. The small seminar
style classes provide an optimal setting for teachers to engage with their
students and provide a tailored curriculum to their needs. Space for classes
is reserved on first-come, first-serve basis.
Classroom Material
The following course material will be given to all registrants of our
Mississauga
LSAT classes and is included in the course fee. Each of our courses is carefully
designed and makes use of all of the best instructional and practice materials
available on the market, rather than being limited to a single proprietary
source. We believe that real practice tests, published by the Law School
Admission Council, should form the basis of any study effort for the LSAT.
