2.0 out of 5 stars Worst LSAT prep I've seen so far., May 13, 2011
The tests in this book are not legitimate LSATs and it shows. Quite frequently the "correct" answers are not flawlessly accurate or indisputable; the subject matter of many of the passages is laughable (alien invasion anyone?). The diagramming recommendations are far too complicated to actually be useful. I've seen far better suggestions for sorting out the logic games questions in other books and even for free online. There are so many LSAT prep books out there: do yourself a favor and don't use this one! So far my favorite one is published by the LSAC who actually make the LSAT, so perhaps look at that one. I'm just grateful I checked this book out of the library and didn't actually waste money on it!

2.0 out of 5 stars Second Verse, Same as the first, September 15, 2010
By 
This seems to be a trend with this series of books. I've come across one confirmed error in the book so far but after reading reviews on earlier products I'm quite sure that there are others as well that I assumed I just wasn't understanding because everyone says that LSAT stuff is so difficult. I'm very disappointed that I cannot confirm my score. That being said, the information in the book seems to be sound, as far as tips and hints to use when taking the LSAT, it's just that the writers of the book cannot answer their own questions correctly which means you cannot easily get an accurate LSAT score from taking the tests in the book. I used their tips and strategies to find the errors in the book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Avoid this book, November 30, 2011
At a glance, this seems like a helpful book...answer "explanations", practice tests, and a team of infallible Harvard grads behind it. Where could you go wrong? How about everywhere?
I'll ignore the typos and poor writing. Though I shouldn't forgive such errors in a $40 book, those are things I could tolerate if the content made up for it. It doesn't.
The explanations are often useless, such as "it can't be x." Okay, but why can't it be x?
The logic games diagramming is decent at times but only when it mirrors the Powerscores format. Otherwise, the diagramming methods they use lead to wasted time and inefficiency.
The main issue I have, however, is the lack of logic. Fortunately, I had begun my study with official LSAC material and Powerscores. Some of the "correct" answer choices rely on exactly the flawed logic the LSAT employs to attempt to stump test takers. Luckily, I was prepared to find these flaws, but if this had been my first or only resource...let's...Read more
