Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: Comprehensive, Rigorous Prep for the LSAT (Includes 4 official LSATs) To prepare properly for the LSAT, you must study problems that reflect the true LSAT format. The best way to do that is to study actual LSAT tests. Now, you can do that with this book! Master The LSAT contains detailed solutions to numerous actual LSAT questions, carefully selected to illustrate every type of question that has appeared on the test in the past several years, including thorough analysis of 4 official LSATs! These solutions will introduce you to numerous analytic techniques that will help you immensely not only on the LSAT but in law school as well. The LSAT is an aptitude test. Like all aptitude tests, it must choose a medium in which to measure intellectual ability. The LSAT has chosen logic. Although this makes the LSAT hard, it also makes the test predictable--it is based on fundamental principles of logic. Master The LSAT analyzes and codifies these basic principles: the contrapositive, the if-then, pivotal words, etc. Armed with this knowledge, you will have the ability to greatly increase your score. Features:
* Analytical Reasoning: Learn powerful diagramming techniques and step-by-step strategies to solve every type of game question that has appeared on the LSAT.
* Logical Reasoning: Discover the underlying simplicity of these problems and learn the principles of logic these questions are based on.
* Reading Comprehension: Develop the ability to spot places from which questions are likely to be drawn as you read a passage (pivotal words, counter-premises, etc.).
* Mentor Exercises: These exercises provide hints, insight, and partial solutions to ease your transition from seeing LSAT problems solved to solving them on your own.
* Complete analysis of 4 official LSATs.
* Official score conversion charts and writing samples for each test.
* The average LSAT scores of 153 ABA approved law schools.
Also includes LSAT test prep software Software features:
Mentor Mode: In Mentor Mode, you are immediately told whether you answered a problem correctly, and you can immediately view a detailed solution of the problem.
Test Mode: In Test Mode, you can take a test timed and scored by the program.

Customer Reviews
Excellent, comprehensive coverage of the LSAT
I purchased this about 3 weeks ago and have seen my interest in the LSAT grow. Being somewhat hesitant to purchase any particular guide without consultation, I took a chance in NOVA'S Master the LSAT. The results thus far have been very positive. The games are presented in a very comfortable format, with reviews and warm-ups before the actual comprehensive coverage of material. I cannot speak for the rest of the book, but from what i've covered so far, the book is very engaging and straightforward. Great Buy.

Same as Master the LSAT (with Software and Online Course)
I bought this title expecting to see something different, but I got the same thing as Master the LSAT (with Software and Online Course). Waste of my money, and badly labeled for someone wanting to buy the best study books for the first time.

A superior study reference for the LSAT. Get this; pass on Kaplan's book
This book is immediately more effective in teaching you about the LSAT question types. It goes into a LOT of detail on the basics of formal logic which is a tremendous boon when it comes to attacking the accursed logic games and the arguments sections.
I recommend this book over the Kaplan book and the Princeton book.

Mistake!
I bought this book based on the positive user reviews. I have spent seven hours working through it already. The language and instructions are easy to understand, and I appreciate that. However, I worked through the introduction to the logic games section and found a mistake. They use an example where there is a condition listed and then they give a "correct" answer to a question although that answer directly violates the prior condition. It makes me nervous that a book that is supposed to help me do well on the test has a mistake that I found, and I haven't been doing this for very long. I'm buying a different study aid!

excellent reading comp review
Most LSAT courses don't even touch reading. Nova gives it a big chunk of space. Aside from reading, I strongly recommend this if you wish to plug in the holes of your prep course. It's wonderfully written and the best LSAT book.
