| Product DescriptionWhen they prepare for law school, few candidates take the time to acquire the caliber of recommendation letters they will need to distinguish themselves in a highly competitive applicant pool. This book, which was written by an Ivy League admissions expert, offers detailed advice to write (and get) persuasive letters that highlight the personal, academic and professional strengths the committee expects to see. It also includes 45 successful recommendation letters, including several that "explain" extenuating circumstances in a candidate's history (such as disappointing grades, a gap in employment, and low LSAT scores). At top law schools, where the competition is fierce, the quality and depth of a candidate's reference letters can make the difference between acceptance and rejection. Whether you are an applicant who needs a persuasive letter of recommendation, or someone who has been asked to write one, this exceptional book is mandatory reading.

| Very Helpfull - buy itThis is a very helpful book on Reading Section. One of the very few available ones on the market. I don't understand why there are so many books conserning LR and AR, and almost none conserning the reading. Reading was my most difficult section (as it is for many students- passages are long time is not enough, same problem..) and if there was more on the market about it I would have purchased it. Anyhow, this book is well written, explanatory, enough exercises.
The reason why I rate it with 4, not 5 stars is because it is not LSAT specific, but it also tells about MCAT, GMAT, etc. Which is important when it comes to the length of passages in the excercise section which takes up 130 out of 180 pages from the book. There are passages of different lengths from 30 to 80 lines, covering the formats of the passages given on GMAT, MCAT, etc. But what we need for LSAT - are passages of 55 - 60 lines so we can properly time ourselves and as we all know on the LSAT - TIME IS EVERYTHING.
In conclusion: helpful book - get it.
P.S. If the publishers get to see that - consider improving it.

| PointlessIf you have any interest in transferring then you should already know that the better your grades are, the more likely your chances are to transfer to another school. The only aspects of a transfer that this book explained that I had not considered previously was that the lower ranked your current school is the less likely it is that you'll be able to move up to a tier one or T4 (top 4 school) and there was some good information on how to integrate once at the new school. I am currently at a great school (tier 1) in city that I hate because I did not consider all of the factors (such as what the city had to offer) when I made the decision about what law school to attend. I want to transfer to schools that are at a very similar ranking in another city and believed that this book will help me figure out how to do so. It did not. If you're reading this book you have probably already went through the law school application process once and this book does not explain much more than you've already learned. So ... here is the gist of the book without spending 100 pages reading the same restated sentences. Study as much as you can because the better your grades are, the more likely that you'll be able to transfer the school of your dreams; aim to a reasonable school ... if you're at a 4th tier school, it is not extremely likely that you'll be able to transfer to Harvard, Yale, or Columbia, but it is possible that you'll be able to get into a better ranked school in the state you're currently attending or where you have great ties; if you're currently at a Tier 1 school and wish to move to the top 20, it is possible if you're in the top 5% of your class; your personal statement should reflect who you are now and why you want to leave; lastly, your LOR should be from someone who you can trust because the authors seem to suggest that there is a lot of weight placed on an LOR from a law school professor.
