In "Curious George: The LSAT"

Good times, that LSAT. I took it last year (Oct 03). Not to brag, but I did well on the thing. I'll share my study tips with the hope that they help you get into the school you're aiming for... 1) I used both of the above-mentioned books "Master the LSAT" and "The Logic Games Bible." Both were helpful, and the logic games book is, hands-down, the best prep-book on the market for that section. Get it. 2) I subscribed to a Yahoo LSAT group that broke down actual LSAT questions. It's always up and open to anyone. Their entire archive of posts can be searched, too. It took some time to figure out who knew their stuff and who was clueless, but once you decypher the signal-to-noise ratio it's pretty useful. 3) I did an actual prep test every Saturday between Aug. and test day. Anal, I know, but the LSAT is as much a test of endurance as it is a test of mental agility. 4) I only practiced using real test questions. Check your prep books. Both PR and Kaplan put out books that have "simulated" questions rather than real LSAT questions (the LSAT company licenses their questions and not everyone's willing to pay). There's a subtle, but real, difference between the real LSAT questions and the "simulated" knock-offs. 5) Finally, and there's some debate over this, the LSAT got harder sometime around 1993. This is in part due to a different company writing the test questions from 1993 on, as well as a reaction to the success of the test-prep industry. So when shopping for real LSAT questions, buy the 10 MORE REAL LSATs book before you purchase the 10 REAL LSATs book. Seriously different. Break a leg on test day!
