Kaplan LSAT 2009 Premier Program (w/ CD-ROM) (Kaplan LSAT Premier Program (W/CD))

I used the kaplan book when I first started preparing for the lsat. It gave a lot of reasoning why answers were wrong, but it did not break down the questions and explain what the lsat question writers are looking for in answers. After taking a TPR (princeton review) class, I got in the 99% because I understood how they expected you to think when taking the lsat. TPR may or may not be the best, but kaplan is certainly the worst. After doing some research before signing up for a class, kaplan has the worst score improvements, and the lowest lsat scores for their instructors.
Also, the cdrom is a poor substitute for a paper version of the exam.

I purchased the Kaplan LSAT Premier program as well as the Kaplan LSAT Logic Games Workbook and I've been working with them for about a month. I not only want my money back, but my time as well! These books are full of errors and typos, in the logic games workbook especially. This has made it HARDER to prep for the test rather than easier. STAY AWAY FROM KAPLAN

Kaplan's LSAT study guides are an embarrassment to what I thought the company's reputation stood for (IMHO): quality test prep. The guides are Kaplan's marketing trap: vague explanations, typos, errors and very poor attention paid to detail (initially) made me think I should register for one of their courses in order to prepare for the LSAT. Avoid this. It's possible to study successfully on your own with the LSAC's official study guide. In short, I believe you'll learn more from blasting the radio, chatting with friends and watching TV while reviewing a non-Kaplan guide compared to burning countless invaluable hours of your time in the library with an error laden Kaplan guide--while exaggerating, it's only to make the point: I'm that unimpressed.
