A) For most people, the best indication of MINIMUM amount of increase is the difference between their PreTest scores and their own SATVerbals, converted into LSATs as a one-to-one translation (SATVerbal of 610 = LSAT score of 161+).

Of course, many people outperform their own SATVerbals. The amount of increase is usually more limited by time than anything else. If everyone trained for a full year, as some PreLaw Advisors recommend, increases would be much higher than they already are. For most people, you can assume a probable rate of increase of anywhere from 7 to 10 points per semester of training. So if you want 20 points of increase, you should be ready to train for anywhere from two to three semesters, on average.
