Book Reviews of The PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible
Book Review: A little brevity would've went a long way.
Summary: 3 Stars
Instead of typing a paragraph, I'll do a bullet point review to make this review more readable.
Pros of this Book
* A lot of good information can be had here if you're willing to read
* Very useful info on proper diagramming techniques
* The drills throughout the chapters help with learning the application of techniques
* The organization is excellent in this book. The most common game types are at the front of the book while the more obscure game types are in towards the back of the book
* The drill explanations are detailed. The most important thing to do is to look over drills/questions and learn why answers are correct or incorrect and where you messed up if you got a question wrong.
Cons of this Book
* The author at times wrote too much to make a simple point. It can be daunting to read due to the needless text making the reader want to skim
* This book is expensive, so one has to budget carefully to make room for this book
* The use of actual LSAT questions can end up tainting one's practice tests
* The tone of the author can be haughty at times (I don't mind, but others probably would). The author suggests some techniques for diagramming and time management as if it were the best when people have to develop their own style. The author also attacks other prep books and companies needlessly.
* Some of the techniques are good, some are too impractical to be useful. Using hypotheticals to answer questions would eat up too much time during the real test.
* There are some typos throughout the book. Nothing that makes the book unreadable, but it can be annoying at times.
All in all, this is a good book for learning the basics of LG. If you do well on LG already, then this isn't worth a purchase, but if you're like me and struggle with LG, then this is a worthy purchase. Of course, buying PTs and other similar study aids are far more important, so don't make this your first purchase, especially if you haven't taken a couple diagnostics first. This book is too expensive to buy without KNOWING if you need it.
Summary of The PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible
The PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible is the most comprehensive book available for the Logic Games section of the LSAT. The intent of this book is to provide you with an advanced system for attacking any game you encounter on the LSAT. This same system is covered in the live classes taught by PowerScore, and all of the methods and techniques discussed in the book have been tested in classroom situations over many years.
The book features and explains a detailed methodology for attacking the games section. All aspects of Logic Games are covered, from recognizing game types to diagramming rules to making inferences and answering questions. Entire chapters are devoted to the most advanced game techniques and to time management strategies.
Logic Games are divided into individual types, and a discussion follows that teaches you how to approach each type of Game, and drills are presented to help you apply and understand the techniques. Thereafter, real LSAT logic games are used to illustrate how the techniques apply to real tests. Using real LSAT questions is a must for high-level LSAT preparation, and twenty-one real LSAT logic games are contained in the book. Each logic game is accompanied by a detailed analysis of the game setup and related questions.
The author has over 12 years experience teaching the LSAT and has scored in the 99th percentile on a Law Services-administered test. An expert in LSAT preparation, he has overseen the preparation of thousands of students and founded two national LSAT preparation companies.
The Logic Games Bible can be supplemented by The Ultimate Set-Ups Guide, which features setups for every game in each released LSAT from 1995 to 2002. Also, both books provide access to a unique website for additional LSAT and Logic Games information, and has answers to frequently asked questions.
