| Mediocre LSAT Study AidThis book could be a lot stronger. The answers are not visually appealing, the games are laid out in ridiculous ways, there are numerous typos, the authors resort to explanations that amount to "just because", and I have found reasoning flaws in some of their explanations of why an answer is correct.
You might be wasting money on the book, but there isn't another option out there. GetPrepped's explanations in this book are of the same caliber as what I've seen of Kaplan and possibly Princeton Review. The explanations are also surpassed by GetPrepped's next attempt at explanations: 'LSAT Explained: Unofficial Explanations for "The Next 10 LSAT PrepTests"'
If you get this book you'll want to try to figure out why you got a question wrong before you turn towards "Answers" for explanations; even then the explanations may not be completely helpful. Personally, I wouldn't want my understanding of the LSAT or the individual questions to hinge on this books but it is a mediocre supplement for thinking in greater depth and getting another perspective on the questions.

| Exam Crackers Logical Reasoning: What to Expect and How to Utilize Everything They Teach youI would highly recommend this book for several reasons. For one, they cover pretty much ALL of the Logical Reasoning questions that you could expect in the section of the LSAT. They cover the some of the very common questions like inference, sufficient assumption/justify and necessary assumption/evaluate, point at issue/disagreement, paradox, parallel reasoning and parallel flaw. They'll also cover questions that you might NOT see on the LSAT, but they teach you about those so you can prepare for them if they do show up.
Some of questions that quiz you on your understanding of the common flaws are a little hard to understand how to do initially. However, once you look them over and think about how to do them properly, then you'll have no problem. Pretty much all of the practice questions are at the back of the book, and a majority of them are grouped according to specific questions like sufficient assumption, paradox, and parallel flawed reasoning. I would not answer these questions until you have a very good sense of how to answer them effectively.
It took me a while to get used to the questions, but I got better at them by writing the rules down on lined flashcards. I would HIGHLY recommend that people do this because you can simplify how to answer the questions. It also allows you to trim their rules of all the excess information that you DON'T need to answer the questions.
Just because this book was published in 2007 doesn't mean that it's outdated in any way. It still has information that can be applied to the questions that you'll see in most, if not any Logical Reasoning section.
I wish that the writers provided more prep tests, because the more you practice w/ the questions, the better you'll perform with them, and you'll feel more confident. If you feel that you need more Logical Reasoning questions to practice with, I would recommend that people supplement this book with one or more of the LSAC's "LSAT PrepTests". ALL of the questions in these books have been taken from previous LSATs, and sometimes they'll even show you WHY an answer is correct if you get a question wrong.
Over all, I would recommend that people buy this book because it teaches you how to answer most, if not ALL of the Logical Reasoning questions in an easy, effective manner. I believe that the information that they provide is practically invaluable when it comes to answering the Logical Reasoning questions. Buying this book will only do you good.
