I haven't read it, but I have read several reviews and I'm so curious to know what people scored on the test.
Useful to Study
Although I agree with a previous post that suggests the title of this book is a bit misleading, since explanations are given for only 10 questions each from the reading, arguments, and games section of a single test, this is still a good book. It costs considerably less than other "official" test books put out by the the LSAT folks, who are not shy about their pricing. You get three complete, previously administered LSAT tests; the 30 explanations that are provided are quite useful, particularly those for the logic games. If you take all three tests in this book and study how the answers are arrived at, you will definitely be better prepared for the LSAT than you were before. If time permits, you can also download and study a free copy of a previously administered LSAT from the LSAC web site. Doing this will help you get prepared for the LSAT without mortgaging the farm for an expensive prep course, which you may not really need.
Best Source You'll Find
So I bought a few of the Kaplan-type books, and while they offer strategies, I tend to just want the real deal and work on my own. For all the future LSAT-takers out there, the best study method I can prescribe is getting old tests and taking as many as possible. Everyone does things differently, and this is the best way. The book shows a few answers for each type of question and describes how they arrived there, and supplies a few ***real*** LSATs. Buy this book, as well as many old tests as you can get your hands on and use those. It's plenty, trust me (I got into schools I thought I had no chance at).
The Book's Title is Very Misleading!!!
"Explanations for all three LSAT-item types" not all 3 tests!
The title on the cover of this book is "LSAT The Official Tripleprep Plus With Explanations." However, this book essentially contains 3 preptests with basic answers -- the only explanations given are for only ONE test, which really doesn't cover the whole test but only 10 questions for the reading, arguments, and games section. Please click on the picture of the book and look at its table of contents . . . you'll notice this fact.
At its current price, you are much better getting the "10 Actual, Official LSAT Preptests." (If you need explanations and strategies, get "Master the LSAT" by Nova or "The Official LSAT Prep Test with Explanations" which contains FULL explanations for one test.)
