I’ll admit it: I was an arrogant mofo in high school, particularly when it came to standardized tests. I had an SAT tutor for about an hour, during which he told me that if I did what he told me to do, maybe I could score as well as he had (a 2400, which he told me within the first ten minutes. I was not impressed). Well, no one tells 16-year-old me that she needs help doing anything, so I told him to shove it (silently, in my head) and then politely informed my parents that I was too busy and didn’t feel that I was really getting much out of the tutoring.

That worked well enough for me, so when I decided that I wanted to go to law school (I’m litigious as shit, yo) I immediately looked up a practice LSAT. Turns out, it’s way harder (and incidentally, way more fun) than the five hour test I took in high school. It’s going to require some actual preparation.

And so, being the jumpy college sophomore that I am, I signed myself up for BenchPrep, and online test-prep program that you can take with you pretty much anywhere if you have a smartphone. I’ve had it on my iPhone for the last few months (in my “Games” folder – that either means that this app is really fun or I’m a giant nerd or probably both), and I use it all the time. Essentially, it’s a digital practice book, with readings, practice questions, and tests, but it can track your progress and give you statistics along the way. Bitches love statistics.

I tell you all of this because the lovely BenchPrep people contacted me a little while ago and asked whether you guys would be interested in a discount on their courses. It took me half a second to say “um, yes.” So here we go.

Give BenchPrep a look, and enter the code THATGIRL at checkout for a 75% discount off any course. The courses never expire, and there’s a course for just about every graduate admission test you’re even considering taking, plus some other ones that I didn’t know existed. Seriously, if you plan to dedicate your life to the postal service, there’s a standardized test and a BenchPrep course for that. And it’s probably way fun.

Conclusion: BenchPrep is worth checking out. And this deal is awesome.
