This is a short book on purpose, do not mistake its short length for a lack of content. Why buy a 100-page book when a 50-page book will do? Spend less time reading, and more time improving on the LSAT.

I have read other lsat prep books but I just wasnt getting it since they are mostly taught by naturally gifted people. This book is different in that it teaches a real technique for people who really struggle with reading the dense and complex materials. It is like he teaches you how to filter out the crap or babble and identify the keys to focusing on the right info choosing the correct answers.
Pretty good explanation of RC tips. It's good for those who have already gotten a handle on LSAT basics. The only thing I wish it had was a sample section showing the strategy or the author's thought process.
The minimal markup section is helpful especially in the US where the exam is now in a digital format, making markups more difficult and time consuming.
Having xlnt RC skills, I thought working on problems in this area would spark improvement. Imagine my disappointment when I found no LSAT questions but stratagems for RC that I had mastered long ago. But i have no intention of taking the LSAT.
A great book on reading comprehension and mental training. I didn’t get the feeling that the author was talking about the LSAT, but rather testing in general. I suppose it is applicable to all.
