Book Reviews of The PowerScore LSAT Logical Reasoning Bible: A Comprehensive System for Attacking the Logical Reasoning Section of the LSAT
Book Review: Absolutely Essential LSAT Prep
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are preparing for the LSAT and have some semblance of self discipline, you must get this book. The book provides sensible strategies for attacking every possible type of logical reasoning question you will encounter on the LSAT, without exception. It is long, and requires some time to absorb its methods, but if you study this book closely and employ the techniques on a few practice tests, you will feel confident and comfortable during the test- and elated when you find your score!
For most students preparing for this test, the question comes down to "Should I take a course?" or "Should I study on my own?" I have a close friend who teaches the course at one of the major test prep centers, and I also studied for my SAT there. Here are some of the advantages to using the Bible:
Cost: You will save over a thousand dollars if you use the Bible versus a course.
Quality: The techniques in the Bible are truly optimal. They compare some of their techniques to those taught at Kaplan, Princeton Review, etc., and it's clear why theirs are superior. Also, you may be spending a lot of money at a test prep center, but there's a strong chance your teacher will be awful. As someone who went through the teacher training process at one of those centers I was appalled by the people who actually ended up in front of a class. Also, the sample questions in the Bible are all actual LSAT questions that have appeared in earlier tests. Powerscore pays a lot of money to license these questions, and it is definitely to your advantage. I have looked at simulated questions from some of the other prep centers/study guides and they are often very different from authentic questions.
Personal: The Bible lets you go at your own pace. If the material is easy you can breeze through it, if it's particularly challenging you can slow down and try to absorb it at a comfortable pace. In the classroom at one of these test prep centers you will often find the speed at which you get through material is dictated by the most vocal students in your class, whether they are incredibly thick headed or just trying to bump their 175 up to a 180.
My experience- On my first practice LSAT (no prior preparation) missed about 6 or 7 questions on each LR section. My first score was 157. Since completing the Bible I have consistently missed only 2 or 3 on the LR section and my last two practice LSATs were a 169 and a 171.
