Great Book only if You Struggle on LSAT Reading Comprehension4
As a professional LSAT tutor/blogger in NYC, I was skeptical when PowerScore published this late last year. I didn't think PS would be able to follow up on the success of the previous 2 bibles with another truly useful study guide. In some respects, I was right, but in others, PS exceeded my expectations.

If you're already scoring decently on Reading Comprehension, this book will repeat much of what you already know. It won't do much to help you get those last few questions.

If you're struggling on Reading Comprehension, this book will make this section much more manageable.

Note: PowerScore once again exhibits its tendency to over-classify. The book goes into detail on every question type, every passage type, etc. If you majored in biology, you might find these taxonomies interesting, but most folks won't benefit from thinking about RC in this degree of detail.

Use (if at all): If you decide Reading Comp is a weak area worth focusing on, complete this book before doing several RC passages.

Unnecessary4
I am a huge fan of his other two LSAT prep books, but I found the reading comprehension book to be slightly unnecessary. It was basic, intuitive information. I did find the "common errors" section helpful, seeing as I am now more aware of traps. I basically found out from this book that completing each prompt in 8 minutes and 45 seconds (their recommendation) to be extremely doable, without using any of their tips. A good book to skim, but not worth spending precious study time over.

I would really recommend this product if you are studying for the LSAT and struggle with this section. PS does a really great job of breaking down what you need to know and provides ample sections to work through!
