Product Description
If It’s on the LSAT, It’s in This Book

The Princeton Review realizes that acing the LSAT is very different from getting straight A’s in school. We don’t try to teach you everything there is to know about reading comprehension or analytic thinking–only the techniques you’ll need to score higher on the exam. There’s a big difference. In Cracking the LSAT, we’ll teach you how to think like the test writers and

-Eliminate answer choices that look right but are planted to fool you
-Master the 7 principles of LSAT test taking that you can’t do without
-Nail even the toughest question types across Arguments, Reading Comprehension, and Games
-Practice online with full-length LSAT exams and instant scoring analysis

This book includes 2 full-length practice LSAT exams. All of our practice test questions are like the ones you’ll see on the actual LSAT, and we fully explain every solution.

About the Author
Adam Robinson graduated from Wharton before earning a law degree at Oxford University in England. Robinson, a rated chess master, devised and perfected the Joe Bloggs approach to beating standardized tests in 1980, as well as numerous other core Princeton Review techniques. A freelance author of many books, Robinson has collaborated with the Princeton Review to develop a number if its courses.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bad review book for LSAT, January 30, 2005
By Barry B. Huang "LORD Yiplong" (Storrs, CT United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I got this book 2 weeks ago, I am about 3/4 way through the whole book, so I think I am fairly qualified to rate this book now.
It sucks! As with most Princeton Review materials, this book is really chatty, it talks a lot, but gives you very little information.
The overall oganization of the book is poor. Main points are not emphasized enough.
And here is the worst part, I don't think their technique is all that useful on the test. Most of their strategies are really time consuming, if anyone follows the steps they outlined, this person would be lucky if he can complete half the exam. Oh yeah, the book constantly tells you to skip questions. That is not a good strategy to me, to skip things. The two practice LSAT included with the book are not real exams, they are made up by Princeton Review.
This book is okay for overview, to give you an idea about LSAT, but to really prepare youself to be ready for LSAT, you should look elsewhere.

1.0 out of 5 stars Long on chatting, but short on technique, July 5, 2005
By Junis L. Baldon (Columbus, OH, by way of Upper Manhattan, NY) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book for $39.95 from Joseph Cooke Booksellers. I thought since it was Princeton Review, that it would be an excellent book to study with. However, I found it was a sham. The book wastes too much time attempting to be "hip" and chatty when the book does little in teaching your actual technique or skills that can help improve your score. There are a number of times, particularly in the logical games section, where the book will skip vital steps and you will be asking yourself, "How did they get that?" In addition, I would stay away from the practice tests because they are only false confidence boosters. Get actual preptests from LSAC and look elsewhere for test techniques. I would suggest that you look at books for specific parts of the test, rather than a flabby all-in-one.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money on this book, August 25, 2005
Other reviewers are correct in their analysis that this book is long on pop drivle and short on practical techinques that will help you get the score you need on the LSAT. While they offer techniques on how to go about disecting a problem, they fail miserably at giving decent examples.
After I studied with this book and then took an official LSAC prep test, I came to realize that the Princeton Review answers were so incredibly dumbed down that my confidience was quickly shaken; the last thing you need when taking such an important test. Good luck in your studies and on test day!
