Summary: A Mistake 2003-08-14
Comment: I bought this book hoping it would help me for the LSAT, but I was disappointed. It is a little simplistic (although this could help a person get used to the games), but it's biggest flaw is the mistakes in the text. Throughout the exercises, there are msitakes. This drove me crazy when I was trying to solve the sample problems becasue I could never be sure if I just wasn't getting it, or if there was another mistake in the book.

Summary: you are better off with out this for the LSAT 2002-09-24
Comment: I don't know about the other tests but this book is useless for the LSAT. It is too easy and has too many mistakes! Simple things like replacing "could" with "must" in the answers mess up the whole outcome and this book makes those simple mistakes. I also understand the concept of choosing the lesser of the evils but this book takes it to the extreme! Answers for inference questions are things that really can't be implied any more than what they consider "wrong". The LSAT doesn't do that. So far i suggest getting the actual past tests and there are plenty of other prep book out there. I suppose you could use this book to boost you confidence, so i will give it stars for that.

Summary: The worst logic prep book I ever had... 2002-09-11
Comment: People should really avoid this book unless you have too much money, time and effort to waste. Aside from this book only provides limited strategies on cracking the logic questions, it has way way way too many bloodly obvious mistakes in it answer keys. It only does two things: confuses you--because you will never understand the inference process since the answers are wrong; or frustrates you--one MORE mistake is found! I eventually got so frustrated that I had to abandon using this book after getting through about 1/5 of the book. Strongly recommend avoiding using this book.

Summary: Too Many Errors in Answer Key ... 2002-06-28
Comment: I would avoid this book simply because the answer keys have too many errors, thus making it difficult to gauge your success on the test questions.

Summary: Terrible and error-filled 2001-10-03
Comment: I looked at this book while preparing for the LSAT.It deals only with very easy questions and even includes errors in the answer key and explanations. The logical reasoning section is quite horrendous, only introuding questions of mild complexity. I would look elsewhere for a preparation book.
