Is JD-Next Right for You?

JD-Next is accepted at 57+ ABA schools and works best as a supplement — or primary alternative — to the LSAT for students targeting those programs. However, most T14 law schools still require the LSAT. ConnectPrep advises you on the right approach for your specific school list before you commit.

The exam is operated by Aspen Publishing and administered multiple times per year.

Our Approach

Deconstruct. Simplify. Score.

Every ConnectPrep graduate prep program follows the same proven methodology — regardless of which exam you’re taking.

Tailored test prep program
Step 01
Tailor a Program Around You
We align your program with your schedule, your target score, and the specific areas of the exam where you are losing points. No two programs are identical — because no two students are identical.
Test strategy and technique
Step 02
Teach Specific Strategies
We streamline and deconstruct every exam section. Rather than content overload, we focus on the technique and timing that produce results. Students learn to simplify and conquer any material efficiently.
Progress tracking and adjustment
Step 03
Assess, Track & Adjust
We constantly assess performance, identifying exactly what component needs work. Each week you receive a specialized agenda that keeps you on track to your target score — with adjustments made in real time.
Simulated test environment proctored exams
Step 04
Simulate & Conquer
Once technique is mastered, we shift to endurance and pace. We proctor full-length real exams under simulated test conditions — so exam day feels familiar, not frightening.

Common Questions

Graduate Test Prep Questions, Answered

Getting Started

How early should I start graduate test prep?
For most exams, a 10–14 week program produces strong results. However, the timeline depends on your starting score, target score, and schedule. We recommend starting earlier rather than later — especially for the MCAT, which benefits most from a longer sustained prep window. Contact us and we’ll map out a realistic timeline before you commit to anything.
Do you offer prep for all four exams?
Yes — GRE, GMAT, LSAT, MCAT, and JD-Next. Furthermore, if your situation involves multiple exams (for example, the MCAT plus BS/MD advising, or the GMAT plus MBA application strategy), we offer integrated programs that address both simultaneously.

Exams & Scores

What score improvement can I realistically expect?
It depends on your starting point, the exam, and the time you invest. Specifically, our GMAT students have achieved scores as high as 760, our MCAT students have moved from 501 to 519, and our GRE students have gained 17+ points. The diagnostic assessment we run at the start of every program helps us set a realistic target before you commit to anything.
Should I take the LSAT or JD-Next for law school?
It depends on your target schools. Most top-14 law schools still require the LSAT, so if you’re targeting those programs, the LSAT is the right choice. JD-Next is accepted at 57+ ABA-accredited schools and works best as a supplement or primary alternative for students targeting those programs. ConnectPrep advises on the right strategy for your specific list before you begin prep.
Can I take both the GRE and GMAT for MBA applications?
Yes — most business schools now accept both. In addition, some students take diagnostic practice tests for both to determine which exam plays more to their strengths before committing to a full prep program. We can help you make that decision with our initial diagnostic assessment.

Our Program

Do you offer graduate school admissions advising alongside test prep?
Yes. ConnectPrep offers comprehensive graduate school advising that covers application strategy, personal statement coaching, school selection, interview preparation, and more. Many students combine test prep with admissions advising for a fully integrated program.
Are sessions in-person or online?
Both — your choice. In-person sessions are available in Fairfield County CT, Westchester NY, Nassau/Suffolk NY, and Manhattan. Online sessions are available nationwide and are fully live and interactive. The instruction quality is identical in both formats.
