Blueprint vs Kaplan for the LSAT
Both sell self-study, live online courses, tutoring and high-score guarantees. Blueprint publishes clearer prices and has a monthly self-paced option. Kaplan offers in-person classes and smaller add-ons. Choose on format: monthly self-study or set live classes from Blueprint; in-person or add-ons from Kaplan.
Blueprint prices and Kaplan add-on prices from their own pages; Kaplan course prices as reported, because Kaplan’s course pages did not show them when we checked on October 11, 2026. Not hands-on tested.
