现在，国内LSAT培训市场日渐萎缩，国外LSAT培训市场竞争激烈！不少已在美国获得学位的朋友想继续攻读JD学位课程；而大陆的朋友也渴望能直接向美国一流的LSAT辅导机构购买它们的全部备考资料和授课录音。
所以，木馨就搜寻、整理了这个帖子方便大家比较选择。
在阅读下文之前，木馨需要提醒大家伙的是：
1.美国的辅导机构一般都会收取高额的辅导费用，所以，你应当得到应有的回报。最有价值的指导不一定就是出自那些全美有名的公司。当需要缴纳1000美圆或者更多学费的时候，你就应当关注一下它们的竞争者。
2.大公司声称：“拥有最好的资料，它们能披露考试的许多要点......” 然而，事实上无论大小公司，都窃取同行的努力并将业内所有好的方法揉合在一起。因此，彼此的课程都显得大同小异。
3.虽然许多公司鼓吹自己已经帮助考生全面搜集了LSAT考试的相关资料，但是实际上考生们领取的资料大都局限于授课教材和几本课外习题集。
4.雇员人数众多的大公司不可避免地混杂一些水平一般的辅导人员，比如：失业的演员、导演；寻找机会的服务生等。而恰恰就是这些人最容易误导考生、耽误考生的宝贵时间，且流动性极大！而最好的小公司能避免以上问题。
5.如果你决意选择某一个培训公司，请注意选择有专人指导的专门课程。这需要咨询那些上过该公司辅导班的学生，并确定哪些辅导老师最受推崇。
6.辅导效果因人而异，公司口碑也是因人而异。一般“Private Tutoring”，效果最明显，当然价格不菲。
7. 目前汇总的有以下这11所培训机构(按字母顺序排名)，如果您知道有新的机构开张、或者老机构倒闭，请及时通知作者，作者收到后会及时更新本帖！谢谢。
