Kaplan LSAT Logic Games in a Box

 (9 customer reviews)

Being someone that is always on the go, I thought that this product would be an excellent purchase to facilitate my studying for the LSAT. However, I quickly became frustrated with many of the cards. Going through them, I have found several wrong answers (i.e the answer says that letter B must be in position 1 or 2 but the explanation shows that the letters H, C, and G come before it. If three letters come before B, then the earliest position B can be in his four). The explanations offer no real insight.

Although there are some typos, duplicates and an error or two on the answer side of the card, these cards were are very helpful.

They cover all of the game types taught by Kaplan (sequencing, matching, grouping and hybrid) and issues like limited options and numbers. In addition, about 100 cards are dedicated to interpreting formal logic rules when they appear in the games section. However, they do not cover any of the rare game types (mapping, process, spatial, etc.)

Overall they helped me understand the rules quicker which allowed me to get though the games at the faster pace. This is a great way to study while on the go without having your nose in a book!

While I appreciated the experience of mixing up my LSAT review with these portable cards, I was disappointed with how many wrong answers were provided. No excuse for a company like KAPLAN to not have a better system in place to check their products.
