Testimonials

I suggest that anyone willing to pay for law school take a good look at investing in their potential with Dave Hall.

Tristan C
169

He literally gives you the key to decoding the entire LSAT. Plus on top of it all he makes every moment exciting and fun.

Lindsey H

Dave Hall's class helped me boost my LSAT score by more than 20 points!

Emily H

Anyone can take practice tests. But you need someone to explain when you miss a question and can’t understand why, which is why I would highly recommend Dave Hall’s course to anyone preparing for the LSAT.

Robert K

Dave should get more money and a bigger office. Monkey butlers wouldn’t be out of the question, either.

Ian E

Dave is a master at what he does, and he knows how to attack the LSAT questions so that they are not impossible to answer. Best of all, I truly think he wanted each and every one of us to master the LSAT the best we can as well.

Lilli B

A new generation of attorneys, judges, scholars and statesmen may be in debt to Dave Hall.

Sean C
164, 12 Point Improvement

Dave makes understanding the LSAT easy. His methodical approach to each section of the test helped me get the LSAT score I wanted, and into the law school of my choice. After taking Dave's class I no longer feared the Logic games on the test – I looked forward to them.

Matt H
16-point improvement

Dave's top notch instruction definitely helped me with my goal on the LSAT. I never thought I would even break 160, but I managed to get a 165 in December. As of this morning, I am officially in at Berkeley Law!

Abraham Z.

Dave equips you with the emotional strength to tackle the LSAT in addition to the knowledge of the actual test necessary.

Alex G

Throughout my experience as one of Dave's students, I improved my score by 20 points overall. If you care about your future, you Will take a class with him. 

Nahal B.

I consider this course one of the most valuable classes I have ever taken, because it has improved my approach to almost any academic or work-related task.

Michael L

Dave’s strengths include his enthusiasm, insane knowledge of the material, and his efficiency in the classroom.

Mairin C

It would not have happened on my own. Dave made a tremendous difference for me, and my score improved dramatically.

Greg M

Dave clearly has a mastery of all things LSAT. For a single strength, I would point to his explanative ability, especially since questions on the test are often convoluted.

Logan M

No doubt the Velocity program, materials and 'eye of the f**king tiger' attitude helped me make at least a 10 point jump. Thank you for empowering me! 

Amber K.

Not only is Dave a complete master of the LSAT, he is also a wonderful teacher, as he keeps his classes informative and entertaining at the same time. He is the ultimate LSAT guru!

Alicen P

…a keen wit and the strength of ten men.

Eric B

Dave turns the LSAT from an arduous 600 page novel, into an easy to read children’s book. His Velocity program allows anyone at any level to answer all questions with efficiency and accuracy. I raised my score by 22 points, and I owe it all to Dave.

Joel T.

Dave Hall is a brilliant teacher who knows the LSAT inside and out. With the help of Dave, I got a 172. This spring, I got into Yale.

Erika M

Taking private tutoring sessions with Dave Hall was the smartest decision I made in my LSAT preparations. When Dave was through with me I got every single logic game question right on the real LSAT.

Michael C

Dave Hall will get you where you want to be. His teaching style is simple and efficient. His approach to each section of LSAT is flawless. And the best part is - it is all learnable. Thank you Dave and Team Velocity! Without you guys, I would never have reached my LSAT potential.
