Summary: book: absolute trash
Review: for people who really want to go to law school,... you REALLY don't want to waste your TIME and MONEY with this book. i need help on the logic reasoning section. i was hoping to get better explanations for each question. the book has absolutely NO proper format. i was spinning my wheels with this book. ABSOLUTELY NOT NECESSARY. i believe they are an opportunist taking advantage of sincere people who really want to go to law school. if you're hoping to get at least a 150 on your lsat get the princeton review (at least they format each section properly and give better explanations). if you want to get >160 get the 10 real lsat book.

Summary: Informative and detailed....It helped me
Review: I bought this book weeks ago and I must say I knew NOTHING whatsoever about the Law School Admissions Test. After reading this book, I have learned many of its basic components and also the question types presented per section. This book is very informative about the test structure, which is crucial. The techniques offered here are of great value. The downside you may be wondering? Why only 4 stars? Well, they really need to provide more practice sets along with each section-test and also more practice on the Logic Games section (Analytical Reasoning). My score was not very high to begin with, but after reading this book, I have increased my score almost 10 points on my second practice test alone. The book definitely informs you to the point where FEAR becomes irrelevant in the test taking process. I highly recommend this book, IN ADDITION to a few other practice tests that you could get your hands on. You will very likely see improvements. PRACTICE IS KEY.

Summary: Overrated attempt to "Guarantee" improvements
Review: I sincerely question the claims that this book helped improve LSAT scores. These tests are insanely hard (far harder than real LSATs, take a preptest then take a Kaplan test and see if your score doesn't drop significantly.) I think the reason is that Kaplan wants you to see a low score and get freaked out and then buy more of their products. Either that or they give you a very hard test then when you take the easier real LSAT your score has gone up significantly. Magic? Nope. Improved readiness? Nope. Simply a question of making a system look better by skewing your results? Yes. For me Kaplan estimated me at a 156 on its tests, my estimated score on preptests (actual lsats)? 173. No thanks to Kaplan.Some say here that it improved their ability to handle stress-maybe it does. But it does not and will not help you better understand the LSAT. Please take a preptest before buying this book and another one before worrying about your low scores, just to make sure you're not being duped.
