Struggling?
Arc Law Prep is here to help.
Dedicated to the Success of
Law Students and Bar Exam Takers
Arc Law Prep provides coaching, tutoring and individual academic support for law students and bar takers. Our work focuses on the legal principles and rules each student needs to know, and on how to apply these principles and rules for success. For prospective law students, we provide guidance throughout the law school admissions process.
For many law students, the Socratic Method gets in the way of learning, leaving them confused and uncertain about what they are expected to know, and struggling to teach themselves as they outline and prepare for exams.
Bar takers often find themselves struggling to understand and memorize fundamental aspects of law, while also practicing their application on multiple-choice, essay and performance tests.
We have more than 20 years of experience teaching and working one-to-one with students preparing to enter the legal profession.

About Arc Law Prep
Arc Law Prep provides coaching and individual academic support, focused on the legal principles and rules each student needs to know, and on applying these principles and rules for success.
Arc Law Prep was started in response to seeing first-hand the challenges faced by many law students. The Socratic Method can be a major obstacle to learning, leaving students confused about what is happening in the classroom and what they need to know for exams.
Bar takers face similar challenges, as they struggle to understand and memorize fundamental aspects of law, while also practicing their application on multiple-choice, essay and performance tests.

“Greg has really changed the way I approached the overall analysis of bar exam questions. He helped me improve my approach to essays and performance tests by breaking down a step-by-step plan of attack. It all clicked for me once I realized that it comes down to following the format of the assigned task. It also made a huge difference that he walked me through the thought process on how to approach the performance test.”
