Summary: General but Helpful Overview! 2003-04-16
Comment: I was pleasantly surprised by this book, written by Kaplan. Although some of their LSAT books were not helpful to me, this "strategic approach" to applying to law schools was quite effective in offering solid information.The strongest sections of this book deal with how to write the personal statement, and how to create a special theme for your application. These sections give practical and insightful advice, allowing readers to hone in on their strengths and weaknesses. The main drawback of this book is that most chapters are brief and pretty general. If I could suggest to Kaplan how to improve this book, I'd tell them to expand their shorter sections with more indepth material. Overall, I'd recommend that readers check this book at their local bookstores first. It's possible that you can obtain all the secrets and tips on a brief skim of the book. For others who have not done much reading on applying to law schools, this book should be useful to them.
