2.0 out of 5 stars
Light on actual advice, heavy on fluff,
By
This review is from: LSAT Success 2004 w/CDRom (Peterson's LSAT Success (W/CD)) (Paperback)
I lost my copy of "Master the LSAT," (which I highly recommend) and picked this up to replace it. Big mistake.While some of the sections are nice (lots of advice on how to stay calm), some of it is just unnecessary. The author spent far too long (and wasted pages) explaining how "academic conditioning" is harmful to your score, and wasted an entire page explaining what each question is made up of: Directions, statement, (ie, passage or game) question and answers. I think I could've figured that one out myself. These are just some examples of the fluff in the book. Almost half the book consists of sections on planning, taking a diagnostic test, and calming down. Only about 60-70 pages are given to actual advice on each of the LSAT sections. Compare this to the "Master the LSAT": larger page count, similar price, much more attention to devoted to what I wanted in a test prep book: advice on the test sections! Why did I give it 2 stars instead of 1? Some of the sections are useful, particularly his advice on how to determine how long to spend on each sub section of the test (ie, each game or passage section). In short, I do not think there is enough useful advice in this book to warrant the price, and it seems that much of it is fluff meant to increase the page count.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Forewarned is forearmed,
By
This review is from: LSAT Success 2004 w/CDRom (Peterson's LSAT Success (W/CD)) (Paperback)
A savvy dissection of the intimidating test by someone who has administered it for years, revealing its hidden structures, obfusicating tricks, and misunderstood objectives. The 9-12-18 strategy, which diagnoses your optimal balance between speed and accuracy, is alone worth the price of this manual. Various study programs are outlined for those who have anywhere between seven days and seven weeks in which to prepare.
