Study Plan: practice PT VS prep LSAT books
Posted: Wed Apr 25, 2018 12:12 pm
I recently started studying for the LSAT and like everyone I rushed into buying prep books. (I do NOT recommend Kaplan Premier)
What I realized very soon is that I enjoy doing actual PT more than reading/studying prep books. I also have to say that I find confusing the way many prep books set things up, they try to explain something very simple and intuitive by articulating the concept so much that in the end I am more confused than ever.
Yes, they can be useful and give you tips but I found most of them being verbose or reiterating the obvious. Now, I'm trying to understand if this attitude I'm having has some basis or it's just me thinking I know better/I don't need these books.
To people who have already some experience with LSAT studying (especially people who already took the test): do you think you could get a great score by 80% doing PT only and maybe 20% reviewing some prep material?
