Has anyone heard of this company acethelsat.com ? I met someone today that said she got scammed by them...paid the $ and was never able to get the online content. Apparently she has tried to contact them without any luck.

Anways, sounds kinda shady...beware!  Devil

Never heard of them, but that's too bad for the girl you met. I wish more people posted about their experiences - good and bad - so others could make more informed decisions when choosing how to prep. Too many sub-par options out there in my opinion.

I've never heard of them either, which I don't take a a good sign.

As with any LSAT prep provider, ask pointed questions, research the history of the company, and definitely check out forums (this one and others) for comments from other users. If you can't find people that have taken a course, don't be the first one! Your LSAT score is too important for you to be a guinea pig for some new company looking to make a buck. Stick with one of the bigger companies or self-study and you'll be fine.

Accepted.com actually has a great PDF out there called "LSAT Prep Companies: In Their Own Words," that does a great job of presenting a thorough look at the bigger prep companies out there: Altas (although I believe they've been bought out?), Princeton Review, Get Prepped, PowerScore, Kaplan, Knewton, Inspirica (I haven't heard of them), Test Prep New York (haven't heard of them either), and Blueprint. Linda Abraham, who runs Accepted, is a solid authority on things LSAT and law school, so I would definitely give this PDF a read if you're just starting your LSAT prep search: http://www.accepted.com/law/LSATPrep.pdf
