3.0 out of 5 stars Not necessarily the best, July 4, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: KAPLAN LSAT 2000-2001 WITH CD-ROM (Paperback)

I purchased this book (and paid extra for the CD) because I had heard Kaplan was "the best." Because it gets bogged down with verbose textbook-style instruction, however, I found it helpful, but not as practical as I had hoped. In addition, the practice exams on the CD, although timed, were frustrating because it was impossible to make handwritten scratchwork on the computer screen (possible during the real exam because it's on paper). I then bought Princeton Review's "Cracking the LSAT," which is more user-friendly and practical; it is more straightforward and is written with a sense of humor. I recommend that prospective buyers examine each book carefully before making a selection (as well as considering paying extra for the CD).

5.0 out of 5 stars Great combination of practice and strategies, October 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: KAPLAN LSAT 2000-2001 WITH CD-ROM (Paperback)

This book gives you three practice tests with good, clear explanations for each answer choice (instead of just telling you the correct answer) and strategies for approaching each section. Kaplan tells you how much time to spend on each type of question, how to prioritize the questions in each section, and how to avoid common mistakes. The CD-ROM is good for efficient practice. I've flipped through some of the other LSAT guides and this one is by far the best.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book + 2 Real LSATs Explained = Slam Dunk!, September 25, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: KAPLAN LSAT 2000-2001 WITH CD-ROM (Paperback)

This book gives you a good plan if you can't afford one of those expensive LSAT courses. First you take a diagnostic test on the CD-ROM to see where you need work (big time saver!)and then you use the tutorials and practice lessons to hone your skills. The answer explanations for the test questions are the most valuable feature in this book. If you get a question wrong, you won't make that mistake again after you read the explanations in this book. That's the same reason why I recommend 2 REAL LSATS EXPLAINED. It's not enough to take a lot of practice tests. You've got to learn why an answer is wrong in order to avoid making the same mistake on the actual LSAT. In addition to explanations, this book gives you strategies to use for each section. I'm taking the test in October and I am READY!
