I have generally found PowerScore books to be very helpful too, but I am kinda suspicious here because I just don't know how a book can improve your RC. It seems to me that the best way to improve RC is simply by reading a lot, working a lot of problems, and working to learn new vocabulary words.

I just checked the PowerScore website, and I don't think there is a RC Bible... I know they have SC, CR and a Verbal bible... is the latter the one you're referring too?

No, he's talking about the LSAT Reading Comp Bible. At the end of the day Reading Comp is reading comp, so I'm actually interested in a comprehensive review for this book as well. I tried to get one from an LSAT message board, but those guys are....different.

"Hi, could anyone suggest me whether to purchase the book "Powerscore GMAT reading comprehension bible", does it worth?"

and yes "those guys" are different... they speak with words... i like numbers although the GMAT is slowly telling me that I understand words better too... hhmm maybe I should get this RC Bible! J/K I can't stomach looking at one more extra book right now.

My friend took the LSAT - I'll find out from her how this book was, although she didn't score as well as she would have liked, so now she's thinking about B-School... (very odd to me)
