Hi,

I have been hearing about the LSAT material. Many posts contain reference to such material.
Can someone please comment on the usefulness of LSAT material for tackling advanced CR problems and/or for practice ?
If it is really useful, can you please name the appropriate books to refer to?

Hi,

LSAT CR's are more time consuming and tougher compared to GMAT CR's
I would suggest you not to start CR preparation for GMAT using LSAT materials.
However if one is comfortable with GMAT CR, then he/she can give a try with LSAT CR materials.

This is purely my opinion

Regards,
GK

I agree...I think we should keep the end goal in sight always...We have to crack GMAT verbal...So lets focus on the official material from GMAT itself...Why to unnecessarily practice using more difficult books/course...

Thanks for your comments !

I agree that we need to focus on GMAT CRs. But I just wanted to get some good books for additional questions to solve and for additional knowledge.

Please comment if you can suggest any good book for CR apart from OG and Verbal Review.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
