Combining the PowerScore LSAT Bibles for Self-Study

 Students who buy two or three of the PowerScore LSAT Bibles often ask if there is some special way they should be combined during study to produce optimal results. Although each LSAT Bible is designed to stand as an independent entity, there are a few pieces of information that can help optimize your overall absorption of the material: 1. Start by reading the LSAT Bible that covers the section that concerns you most. You should always begin by attacking any perceived weakness that you have. For example, if you are concerned about Logic Games, begin by reading the LSAT Logic Games Bible. If … [Read more...]

The LSAT Bibles: Do You Need the Newest Editions? Part II

The LSAT Bibles: Do You Need the Newest Editions? Part II

In Part I of this blog, I discuss why we use cover medallions on our LSAT Bibles to indicate the year of release. The short answer is that they help students identify the most up-to-date versions and avoid accidentally buying an older version that's out of date. In this continuation, I go into each book individually and provide an overview of some of the changes over the years. Want more in-depth explanations between specific years? Here are some breakdowns.2020 PowerScore LSAT Bibles 2019 PowerScore LSAT Bibles 2018 PowerScore LSAT Bibles 2015 vs. 2016 PowerScore LSAT Logic … [Read more...]

The 2015 vs. 2016 PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bibles

Every year, we release an updated version of the LSAT Logic Games Bible, including the 2016 version.  We do this to account for changes in the test, to expand and clarify certain explanations, and to add new and refreshed content in order to keep the books as useful as possible. Because of the extent of these yearly changes, one of the most common questions we get each year is: can I use an LGB from a prior year to study for this year's LSAT? Sometimes the answer is yes, and sometimes it is no. This year, the answer is no, so please allow me a moment to explain why.First, if you've bought … [Read more...]

Should I Self-Study Before Starting an LSAT Course?

Should I Self-Study Before Starting an LSAT Course?

This is a question we frequently encounter on our forum, and with good reason. One of the most important things you can do in law school admissions is to plan ahead. If you signed up for an LSAT prep course that doesn’t begin for a while, you’re probably wondering if you can do anything in the meantime. Of Course! But, before we tell you to spend another couple hundred bucks on study aids, let’s make things clear. Our LSAT courses—Full-Length, Live Online, or On Demand—are designed for students who have no prior experience with the test. Many of our students do, of course, but your … [Read more...]

Why Skimming Isn’t Advised on the Reading Comprehension Section

Why Skimming Isn't Advised on the Reading Comprehension Section

Should You Skim the Reading Comp Passage? In theory, it might seem that skimming could add some degree of efficiency. Unfortunately, in practice, this is not the case. In fact, this approach actually reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of the nature of the Reading Comprehension section.Skimming might be sufficient to absorb lighter materials aimed for simplicity, such as newspapers or magazines. A newspaper editor wants readers to know half the story by the time they have read the headline. Magazines put the most attention-grabbing pictures on their covers. Obviously, these … [Read more...]
