5.0 out of 5 stars Princeton Review Delivers, February 13, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Princeton Review: Cracking the LSAT, 2000 Edition (Paperback)
I bought the Barron's LSAT book first and that was a lame disappointment. Then I got the Princeton Review book and all of a sudden, the LSAT seemed beatable. The folks at Princeton Review earned their money by simplifying the LSAT as much as possible. Their test-taking strategies are extremely thorough and written for clarity. Cracking the LSAT is kind of like an "LSAT for Dummies" book. The writers' sense of humor and cynicism make the book lighter to read too. And unlike Barron's, this book explains all five answer choices to a question in the sample exams, not just two or three. I was scoring around 159 with the Barron's book. With the Princeton Review, I got a 165 on the December LSAT.

This review is from: Princeton Review: Cracking the LSAT, 2000 Edition (Paperback)
An excellent study guide. I improved 7 points in a few weeks. You may want to purchase the LSAT/GRE Logic Games study guide to go with this. Good Luck!!!

This review is from: Princeton Review: Cracking the LSAT, 2000 Edition (Paperback)
This book is awesome for giving you guidance and information about the LSAT. Each section of the LSAT is reviewed and strategies, examples, and detailed explanations are included. This book is a great foundation to preparing for the LSAT. Suggest additional tests for review (book only includes two).
