In this episode of Success Unlocked, Dr. Adrienne Shnier is joined by Ryan Elmhirst, an LSAT coach at Apply Yourself Global and a current law student at UBC Allard Law. Ryan scored an incredible 176 on his first LSAT attempt, and he didn’t do it by studying 10 hours a day or burning out.

In this honest and motivating episode, Adrienne and Ryan dive deep into what actually works when it comes to LSAT prep. From blind review strategies to mindset shifts to why less (but smarter) studying leads to better results.

Whether you’re just getting started or feeling stuck in your prep, this is the mindset and method reset you didn’t know you needed.

What You’ll Learn:

• How Ryan scored 176 on his first try without full-time studying
• Why blind review is the most efficient strategy you're not using
• How to build confidence by learning how the LSAT “thinks”
• Why studying for 10+ hours a day actually works against you
• The real impact of sleep, mindset, and time off on your test score
• How AYG coaching helps you personalize your prep and avoid burnout
• What to do if you haven’t written your diagnostic yet (and still want to start coaching)
• Ryan’s best advice for nervous first-timers: take it slow, and stay consistent
