  I've never taken a class of his, but his podcast is excellent with a ton of good information. He does it with another LSAT teacher in DC, Ben Olson. They're both very knowledgeable about their trade. I'm sure taking a class from either one of them would be very beneficial. The podcast name is "The Thinking LSAT Podcast." They just released episode 30.

  I heard Nathan Fox's class is excellent. My guess is, like any course catered to the masses, there will be parts that are helpful, parts that won't. I have heard though that he's an excellent private tutor though his prices are steep.

  Actually he's not too high—looks like around $290 an hour.
  
  *Correction: seems $300 is definitely near the upper ceiling of the "normal range." You can tell I've never seriously looked into the prices of such things because ...

  Hey AlexanderLO! I've heard good things about Nathan Fox's prep. A few of my friends took his class and they raved about their experience. I've also attended a presentation that he gave at my college on the LSAT and what his course will teach you. One thing of note: he's kind of a no BS kind of guy, he'll give it to you straight/tell it like it is (IMO, WAYYY more useful than prep test companies like Kaplan buttering you up when they're actually completely useless).
  
  All in all, if you have the $ and the time, go for it. Otherwise, 7Sage Ultimate! Best purchase I've made for sure

  @AlexanderL0 I've heard and read good things about Fox LSAT as well, but would you mind if I ask how long have you been studying for LSAT and how long have you been using 7Sage? Though I make the caveat that everyone is different and has different learning abilities, I would encourage you to stick with one test prep methodology through to the end before trying others. I've tried juggling 7Sage with some of the ManhattanPrep books, the slight variations in nuance and slight differences in their approach were enough to get me mixed up whenever I attempted logical reasoning questions. Ironically, I did find that consulting other sources did help to improve my logic games in terms of being able to better categorize the game types and know what to do immediately from reading the game scenario. As for reading comp, I think the memory method is pretty solid only because it's helped me better than the ManhattanPrep book.
  Good luck and I hope you figure out what works best for you!

  @kingofclubs323 an excellent point. Why not exhaust the 7sage curriculum that's already been purchased? Not only for the financial considerations, but just to avoid cross-contamination of teaching methods...

  Have you ever read any of his books? I mean 7Sage is really the best out there, you know. lol but at least make sure that these two go along smooth because you don't want to confuse what you've learned through 7Sage once you enroll in a new course.

  I prefer 7Sage. JY fosters a respectful atmosphere where even people who score crazy high like JY are humble and empathetic. Fox's podcasts are kind of smug, some good material but not earth shattering.
