I want to buy Powerscore LR bible from amazon. Anyone else used this book and liked it or have any other recommendations? I am terrible at LR because I read like a turtle and I feel like I still don't understand it even though I understand the fundamentals. I find RC to be easier, and LG is just LG lol

Get back to studying @jinadarcy0610262
@jinadarcy0610262 u stay on it LOL
Either way you won't go wrong with 7sage :)
@igbodoe249 When will you be taking the lsat?
I think I'm going to go with Manhattan LR. I remember I was reading a "how I got 180" blog a while ago and that person talked about it too.
Thanks everyone!
Don't even bother with the bibles! I feel that instead of helping it'll actually confuse you with the material you've learned through 7sage.
If you're going with a book I would say go with Manhattan LR instead, it tends to have better regard than PS LR lately
For those of you who have used the Manhattan LR strategy book, do you feel it adds something valuable to the 7sage curriculum?
lol I just happened to click on the thread while it was there... not my fault :)
@jinadarcy0610262. Thank you && I agree with ddakjikinng lol...stop looking at people's edits hahaha

saw that edit @igbodoe249 :p no worries, work hard and you'll be killen it b4 you know it
I'm not really sure actually lol
@licknee10505 I actually thought the same thing as you. I did not go with 7sage because I had already spent thousands of dollars on Testmasters. I learned about 7sage later on. My friend and I were going to buy 7sage together and split it but I was afraid I will get confused. One of my friends also gave me all the bibles and blueprint materials but I remember getting confused when I opened them so I just put the aside and eventually threw them away when I was moving. :/
Now I am still using Testmaster material and learned the games from 7sage. I won the 7sage contest and I thought of using my amazon gift card on a LR book because I'm still struggling.
I think Manhattan is the BEST foundational text for LR, with the Trainer useful for supplementing any gaps in your understanding.
I have the LR bible but stopped reading it after a few chapters b/c I didn't like it very much. Manhattan LR + Trainer are much better for LR.
I third the opinion here. Never got used to the Bibles. I found Manhattan LR/Blueprint/7Sage all pretty good sources for LR.
I personally think that PowerScore is too complicated and I tend to like complicated. I'm using some of the problem sets in the PowerScore books for extra practice which is helping. But mostly it is not helping solidify understanding. However, I am having success with making ideas concrete using The LSAT Trainer.
