"I
had no idea how much information I was missing using "other"
LSAT preparation materials! The Logical Reasoning Bible
has definitely changed my whole perception of the test
and the questions. I am so glad that I found out about
your book before it was too late! I think everyone preparing
for the LSAT should use The Logical Reasoning Bible
and the Logic Games Bible, they will make a world
of difference."

| "The
Logical Reasoning Bible is the best and most
practical LSAT prep book that I used. LR problems were
my weakness, but after using the LRB, it became my strongest
section. This is definitely a book that can help anyone,
beginners and those honing their LSAT skills."

"The
Logical Reasoning Bible made things so much clearer
to me, and I'm so much more confident now because I
worked through the book. When I practice on LR sections
now, I actually understand the questions and the types
of correct and incorrect answers. I hear the statements
from the LR Bible in the back of my head, and I'm like
'Oh yeah, I remember this point, and I saw this in that
example problem in the book....' It's made things a
lot more predictable, almost like clockwork. It makes
sense now."

"I
was taking the Kaplan course, but I was having trouble
with their study guide on the logical reasoning section.
After going through the Logical Reasoning Bible
by PowerScore I not only gained confidence but a clear
and solid understanding of logical reasoning. My only
regret is that I should have started with PowerScore
first."

Book Description

The PowerScore LSAT Logical Reasoning Bible™
is the most comprehensive book available for the Logic Reasoning
section of the LSAT. This book will provide you with an advanced
system for attacking any Logical Reasoning question that you
may encounter on the LSAT. The concepts presented in the Logical
Reasoning Bible are representative of the techniques covered
in PowerScore’s live courses and have been consistently
proven effective for thousands of our students.
The book features and explains a detailed methodology for
attacking all aspects of Logic Reasoning problems, including
recognizing question types, identifying common reasoning elements
and determining their validity, the methods for efficiently
and accurately making inferences, and techniques for quickly
eliminating answer choices as you solve the questions. Entire
chapters are devoted to every currently-tested question type,
to section strategy and time management, and to even the most
challenging reasoning concepts presented, such Formal Logic,
Conditional Reasoning, and Causality.
The following Logical Reasoning question types are covered
in detail:
Must
Be True Questions
Main Point Questions
Weaken Questions
Strengthen Questions
Justify the Conclusion Questions
Assumption Questions
Resolve the Paradox Questions
Method of Reasoning Questions
Flaw in the Reasoning Questions
Parallel Reasoning Questions
Evaluate the Argument Questions
Cannot be True Questions
Point at Issue Questions
Principle Questions
In addition,
the Logical Reasoning Bible features over 100 real
LSAT Logical Reasoning questions that are used to illustrate
and reinforce our techniques. This includes examples for each
of the question types referenced above. The two Logical Reasoning
sections on the LSAT represent approximately 50% of your final
score and are frequently considered to be the most challenging
aspect of the test. However, once you understand how to efficiently
approach each question type and deconstruct the reasoning
presented, the solution to each question can be quickly discovered.
Through step-by-step analysis of every reasoning idea that
you will encounter, detailed explanations for every answer
choice, and extensive drills to enforce every major concept,
this book with teach you how to correctly solve even the most
complicated Logical Reasoning problems.
The Logical Reasoning Bible is also supplemented by
a unique website that provides additional materials to complement
the book and answer frequently asked student questions.

Frequently
Asked Questions top
1. Does
the PowerScore LSAT Logical Reasoning Bible use real
LSAT questions?
Yes, we believe using real questions is a must for high-level
LSAT preparation. The Logical Reasoning Bible features
128 real questions drawn from previously released LSATs.
FAQ
top
2. Is
the Logical Reasoning Bible just a collection of problems
or will it teach me how to understand and solve reasoning questions?
The purpose of the Logical Reasoning Bible is to teach
you how to attack and solve every type of Logical Reasoning
question that appears on the LSAT. There are extensive explanations
of the PowerScore methodology, how-to’s on identifying
argument structure and inference-making, helpful drills, and
of course full explanations to all of the problems in the book.
The book features real LSAT questions to help explain our approach
and to provide you with practice with applying our techniques.
FAQ
top
3. If some of the games in the book are drawn from the 10
Real LSAT PrepTests or 10 More Real LSAT PrepTests
will that hurt my preparation?
No! First, there are over 2500 LSAT Logical Reasoning questions
currently in release from Law Services, and we use only a fraction
of those in the Logical Reasoning Bible. And, a number
of the questions in the book are NOT drawn from the 10 Real
LSAT PrepTests or 10 More Real LSAT PrepTests. Regardless,
even if you encounter a problem in a practice test that you
have seen in the book, the Bible will show you how to attack
that question in the most efficient manner possible. You cannot
be hurt by seeing the best way to solve a question, and many
students realize after reading the Reasoning Bible that methods
they previously used and thought were efficient were in fact
inefficient.
In addition, the Logical Reasoning Bible contains a number
of drills that will help you learn the skills taught in the
book. Between the drills and the real games you will have a
variety of opportunities to learn and apply the PowerScore methodology,
and you will also have the option of purchasing dozens of other
games to work through.

"This
book is hands down the best book I've seen for LSAT prep!
I have used Princeton, Kaplan, and Barrons. Your book is perfectly
put together and so easy to understand. I have honestly learned
more in 3 weeks with this book, than I did with 3 months of
the other books combined."

"I
studied for about a month using test prep materials from another
company. After taking three practice LSATs I saw no improvement
in my test scores. After studying with the Logical Reasoning
Bible for three weeks, I saw my practice test score increase
by six points! PowerScore helped me to understand everything
on the test. The explanations provided by the book cover everything
so thoroughly I didn't have a chance to get confused. My only
regret is not buying a PowerScore book earlier."
- Stephanie
Ross
"I
completed (another company's) prep class and did not feel
that I received enough training on the Logical Reasoning sections
of the LSAT. The PowerScore Logical Reasoning Bible
has definitely helped me to better understand the fundamental
concepts that underlie the Logical Reasoning question types
and expanded upon the knowledge I had already gained. "

| "Two
weeks before the LSAT I was freaking out because my score
was not improving, especially in the Logical Reasoning section
of the LSAT. I was taking a test prep class at the time (Princeton
Review), but I still did not grasp a test taking strategy
for the LSAT. One week after I completed the PowerScore
LSAT Logical Reasoning Bible, my score went up 5 points!
The concepts taught in the book even helped me improve in
the Reading Comprehension section. When I finally took the
LSAT, my score went up 8 points from what I started with two
weeks before. Thanks PowerScore! Now I can pick the law school
I want to go to."

you are going to take the LSAT, and you plan on studying on
your own without taking a course, you MUST, MUST, MUST purchase
the PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible and the PowerScore
LSAT Logical Reasoning Bible. Save yourself hundreds of
dollars by NOT purchasing any study guides from Kaplan, Barron's,
Princeton Review, etc. Save yourself time by getting these
PowerScore books as soon as possible. You'll be glad you did,
and you'll notice a big improvement on your LSAT abilities."

"The
greatest LSAT prep book that money can buy. I had taken another
(rival) prep course, which had helped me improve my score to
a point where I thought I was happy, but after purchasing the
LR Bible, it spearheaded me into the 99th percentile! I credit
my success with the LSAT solely to the LR bible, NOTHING ELSE."

"This
book is absolutely amazing. It explains the logical reasoning
question types with such clarity. The concepts were so easy
to grasp. I highly highly recommend this book, coupled with
the Logic Games Bible, you practically can teach yourself.
This illustrates how clear the explanations are presented."

"The
Logical Reasoning Bible helped me have the 'epiphany'
I needed to conquer those sections of the LSAT, which ultimately
enabled me to feel relaxed on test day. I recommend this book
to EVERYONE who is preparing for the LSAT."
