Eva Lana Silver, JD, Tax LLM (2023), stands as the nation’s foremost LSAT instructor and researcher. A proud Harvard alumna, she holds a B.A. in Chemistry and is distinguished as a Harvard National Scholar. Currently, she actively participates in the American Bar Association’s Science & Technology Section, holding leadership roles in the E-Filing, Food, Cosmetics & Nutraceutical, and Diversity Committees.
In 1991, Eva embarked on a journey to decode the LSAT intricacies. Utilizing a methodical approach, she logically deconstructed the exam, identifying its consistent patterns.

This system, especially relevant during recent major format changes in the LSAT, allows predictions based on a 30-year examination history. Continuously updated post-each LSAT, The Binary Solution incorporates any test changes, many of which Eva foresaw back in her 1991 research.
