Summary: A great study guide with humor 2007-06-27
Comment: Great information, helpful hints, and humor highlight this book. I would definitely recommend this to anyone studying for the LSAT. Professor Dave explains how to handle all types of questions and then gives plenty of practice. Studying for the LSAT gets monotonous but this book keeps it interesting.

Summary: To Your Disadvantage With Professor Dave 2006-06-11
Comment: I purchased this book because of its good reviews. I review now why those reviews are not at all accurate. What then is accurate? Relaxed approach. Proverbs on learning. What is problematic is that the book does not actually deliver on its title! Why are you buying it, after all? The lesson plans offer no concrete strategies that commonsense could not have dictated. I find the advice proffered, while not unhelpful, to be nothing illuminating. The Logic Games section is sadly lacking in efficient methodology, in both diagramming and approach. As well, the answer explanations are at times unsatisfactory, and do keep in mind the practice questions, like the included 3 full-length exams, are not actually from the LSAT. The accompanying audio track is worthless to any rational, thinking being. Compared to other prep texts, this books should be ashamed. Save your money and buy more worthwhile things. Like recycled paper.

Summary: Not much of an "advantage" 2006-02-13
Comment: The book is nicely laid out but the questions are not, I repeat, are NOT from the LSAT. To get the best preparation possible, get the real questions and drill. In fact, some of the questions in "The LSAT Advantage" leave room for multiple answers.

Summary: This book will raise your score 2005-02-17
Comment: If you've read my other reviews, you'll see that I've dissected and used nearly every test preparation book on the market. Though relatively new, LSAT Advantage has quickly moved to the front of the pack as the best LSAT book available.
The problems in LSAT Advantage are accurate and thoughtful, and the explanations strike the perfect balance between traditional, formal methods and state-of-the-art tricks specific to conquering the LSAT. The CD-ROM not only contains practice exams, but also tips and tricks which reinforce the material presented in the book. We use this book in our Gorilla Test Prep LSAT course, and students and instructors alike have found it to excel in every way.

Summary: THE BEST LSAT REVIEW BOOK!!! 2004-10-29
Comment: This is by far the best LSAT Preparation book! I found it not only extremely helpful, but also motivating. I found myself gain confidence by going over all of the material in the book and found the material to be similar to what you encounter on the actual test. The preview test, practice sets, exercises and the full-length practice sets were excellent along with the detailed strategies for each section. You see yourself doing better with more practice. The logical reasoning sections in the book are broken down well by topics allowing you to work separately on main question types. You are able to identify the questions and get through the section faster. The reading comprehension section of the book teaches you how to pace yourself, as well as, encourages you on how to read the passages so that on the day of the test your are able to finish all four passages along with the questions. As for the analytical reasoning section of the book, it is divided into three areas giving you strategies on how to tackle the different types of problems. I found the analytical reasoning section to be very clear and concise, and in fact it is the section I scored the highest in on the LSAT. The CD also was helpful with various tips. I would highly encourage anyone preparing for the LSAT to use this book for review as it is an excellent guide to getting a higher score.
