Book Reviews of ExamKrackers LSAT Analytical Reasoning (Examkrackers)
Book Review: An Improvement Over Other Books
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a private LSAT tutor who uses a mix of past LSATs, commercial books, and my own material for my students. I previously reviewed the Examkrackers LR book, and I find this AR book equally useful.
Since this book provides the first real competition to the powerscore LGB, it is natural to compare the two. The first obvious difference is the philosophy of where to put things on the page. PS advocates a main setup at the bottom of the page, with work for individual question done next to the question. I've always found this problematic for two reasons: students forget to follow important rules when they are written far away from the problem at hand, and work scattered around the page makes it difficult to use work on previous questions to help answer later ones (which is a huge time-saving strategy for some questions). The EK approach shows you have to put everything in one place, which I like better; I've found my students do as well.
I think the EK book has better symbols too. One disastrous set of PS symbols is the "<" and ">" signs and the branching order symbols, which always throw my students off; EK comes up with a more sensible solution to this problem, and a clever set of symbols that are intuitive and work with just about every game.
There is plenty of emphasis in this approach on finding overall deductions before jumping into the questions. People who are already familiar with the LSAT know that this is where the real points come from, and the book doesn't skimp here. Of course, there are some weaknesses. I think the chapter on rare game types is written in a particularly confusing way, but luckily the "rare" games are very rare indeed, so this is unlikely to hurt your score. Overall, I like this series enough that I now use the EK complete study pack and the home study regimen on their website as the basis of my tutoring program with students.
