Let me preface this by saying that I purchased this book solely for the logical reasoning portion of the test. I was studying for the FBI Phase I Exam (which contains a logical reasoning section). The study guide and sample tests in the Barron's book were much more varied and complex than the logical reasoning section of the FBI test, so it was nice to be over-prepared. I passed the exam, so the book worked great for my needs. I haven't looked at any of the other sections, so I can't comment on them.

So far, this is a very well put together book that does a good job of taking the student through the process of learning about the LSAT and how to take it. The diagnostic tools and the suggestions for how to approach studying are helpful, and the step-by-step explanations about how sample questions work are a good substitute for face-to-face interaction.

The seriousness of this book kind of scared me, and I didn't end up using it (in spite of the CD-ROM). The graphs in the back were helpful, though, for giving me a better idea of what my odds would be of actually getting into which law schools.

I read this a couple years ago when I was still planning to take the LSATs. It was reasonably useful then. I just didn't wind up taking them. Don't think I'm going to get back to it, though, so rating it now probably makes the most sense.

For someone with less time or economic resources, Barron's book can provide a comprehensive preparation for the LSATs. Its explanation of the essay section was really useful.

doing the logic games (also called anayltical reasoning) section. So far it seems easier that LSAT for dummies

Good base to begin studying, but I would recommend getting some supplements or checking out some websites for learning some study hacks.
