5.0 out of 5 stars Great Deal, December 16, 2004

This review is from: Pass Key to the LSAT (Paperback)

This book is much cheaper than any of the others out there. It is also smaller and lighter, making that much easier to carry around. There are three tests with answers explained. I would recommend getting 10 Actual LSAT Tests first, but if you really want more practice, or to use this as a warm up to 10 Actual LSAT Tests or something like that, then this is a a fantastic bargin. The tests are slightly easier, in my oppinion, than 10 Actual LSAT Tests, so just keep that in mind.

I used this book mainly for the sample tests--but I found that I was scoring about 10 points worse on them than I was on actual, previously used LSATs or ones in other books. I don't think they use practice questions from LSAC, instead making them up (which does lower the price, but still...)
