One of the first decisions you’ll have to make is which LSAT or MCAT course schedule to choose (but you can always change your mind later!). Some courses meet once a week, others meet twice or more per week, and many offer a mix. Although all of our courses cover the same great content, the schedule dictates the pace at which that content is covered.

A once a week class is a good fit for:	A twice a week class is a good fit for:	A 3 times per week class is a good fit for:
Learners who need significant review Learners who are testing 4 or more months from when they start class Learners who are taking a full course load of classes or are working full time	Learners who have been exposed to the exam before and are aware of the fundamentals Learners who have sufficient time in their schedule to dedicate to their out-of-class work even when the workload intensifies Learners who (for one reason or another) must test in 4 months or fewer	Learners who have significant prior exposure to the exam Learners who have enough free time in their schedule that they can treat their exam prep like a full-time job Learners who (for one reason or another) must test in under 3 months

Please note, to qualify for the Blueprint course guarantee we do have attendance requirements for live sessions. Please visit blueprintprep.com/guarantee for the full list of requirements.

Pre-work

No matter which class schedule you’ve chosen, there’s some important pre-work to complete before your first session. We strongly recommend setting aside a few days before your first class to tackle this pre-work. Doing so will ensure you’re prepared, confident, and ready to make the most of your first lesson. Let’s hit the ground running together!

Workload

Once a week course

Blueprint utilizes a flipped classroom model of instruction where you’ll be doing work outside of class before attending and using what you’ve learned in your pre-work to practice during class with experts. You can see a sample week below. In this example, note that it’s around 2 hours of work per day this week

MCAT:

LSAT:

Two times per week/Three times per week courses:

Some students may want to choose a class that operates on a more accelerated schedule that meets twice a week. These classes have more out of class work per week for you to be prepared for the work in class. You can see a sample schedule below. Notice that each day has more work (between 3 and 7 hours) due to the accelerated nature of the course schedule.
