BTW, I jsut took June test and only got 155.... My weaknesses are logical reasoning and reading comprehension.
Thank you!
I live in the DC/VA area, but the instructor I used isn't on your list. It's odd, because my teacher was pretty good.

1.) Anyway, I've heard nothing but good things about Austin Stack. I actually did sit in on his explanation of one of the Diagnostics.
2.) I found his LG explanations to be strongest. However, his LR explanations were good too.
3.) I think he teaches in Arlington. If you live there, you might as well select him. If you don't, it's pointless. Traffic in that direction is terrible in the evening.

I see. If you're on the metro, you have far more options. However, if you live inside the city, you know that the commute out of the city is terrible in the evening. Sometimes you have to wait in line for a train. In that case, I'd stick with one of the city instructors. I hear that all of the city instructors are veteran teachers. In fact, it was word of mouth from a friend who took Testmasters in DC that brought me to Testmasters.

If you live in VA and close to the metro, go with Austin Stack. If you happen to live closer to Fairfax (particularly around George Mason University) I would definitely recommend Sara Kelly. She was my instructor.

I had Lara Berlin for a teacher and wasn't really into her teaching style. She went through the material really slowly. Andrew Meni subbed for us once and he was great.
