“So happy with this book! Not only is it super helpful, Ellen Cassidy's writing style is FUN and easy to understand. I found myself looking forward to studying.”
“What I have learned from your material has made notable contributions to my life's current trajectory, which for the first time feels positive and purposeful.”
“Love this book, gave me a renewed sense of motivation. Burn the cash.”
“I had been studying for 6 months and seemed to plateau. I knew that I had the potential in me to be significantly better than I was but I didn't know how to access that potential until Susie came along.”
“I have absolutely loved the Loophole book. My blind diagnostic was 156.”
“The best thing that has happened to me during my LSAT studying journey is picking up The Loophole on a late night before going to bed. After having studied for a year and a half, talked to two other tutors, and read many other prep books, I have not expected The Loophole to work.”
“I bought this book after I had taken the LSAT and wanted to study for it again.”
“It is truly a remarkable book, not only for its strategies but also because your tone and delivery make the reader believe that they can beat the test -- at least, you made me believe that I could do it.”
“I'm absolutely loving The Loophole! It's been a game-changer already.”
“Hi everyone! I really never thought I'd make it here but I took the November test and scored a 174!!! My journey was not straightforward and I've definitely been embarrassed to share parts of my LSAT journey until now. I took the LSAT 3 times last year before joining Elemental.”
“This book has been so incredibly helpful in demystifying one of the most challenging sections on the LSAT.”
“I went from -10 per section to sometimes only 2 wrong in 2 weeks.”
“I got a 161 in September (hey, it's better than last time and it was all new material).”
“Fabulous book, wish I found it sooner. CLIRing my way to 180!”
“I thought tutoring would be just a few sessions here and there with a tutor I would not connect with on a personal level, but Elemental proved to be much more. Ellen not only held fun, constructive, and confidence-building tutoring sessions, but also provided a multitude of helpful resources on the Slack.”
“The trainer was not much help on LR. The loophole was a game changer.”
“My wife jokingly takes credit for the score because she brought me your book, saying that $50 saved her $50,000 in tuition.”
“And I'm not giving up till I understand this test!”
“Here's my top study materials I've been using to study for the LSAT”
“175 on January! Omg I am freaking out!!!!!!!”
“Okay hi everyone! My names Olivia and I've been with Elemental since May! I took the October test and scored a 178 which is so totally never what I thought I could do so I figured would share some thoughts + hope with everyone else!!”
“Helped me get from -5 each section down to -1 or -2.”
“I will cut STRAIGHT to the chase -- The Loophole has changed my approach.”
“The only book which teaches how to understand a complex sentence correctly and quickly.”
“Incredible book and very engaging!”
“I recently finished reading The Loophole and I wanted to express my gratitude.”
“Hi all! I wanted to provide some positive encouragement and advice to Elemental students who are currently in the midst of their LSAT preparation, including those of you who have non-traditional backgrounds and have been out of college for some time.”
“I started it and it reads exactly like a good book from Barnes and Noble! I love it!”
“So I started working through the loophole (per like everyone on lsat TikTok) and honestly it is really really helpful.”
“I've heard great things about this book.”
