I've heard some say that the Economist is a great source to improve on vocabulary and reading ability to improve LSAT ability.

Anyone used the above news source or something else to improve?

    The New Yorker and Scientific American are also great!

    I like to read both the Economist and Scientific American. Many of the articles in these magazines are written in a similar style to the RC passages on the LSAT. Some of the RC passages actually have come from older articles from the Economist and Scientific American. Scientific American is especially helpful if you don't have a science background.

    The New York review of books, if you have a particularly hard time with book review RC passages like me!

    Law journals are also a good way to get used to the law passages. For instance: http://harvardlawreview.org/

    Also, the NY Times has something called "Room for Debate," where about 4-6 people weigh in on an issue from different angles. This is good practice for the comparative reading passages
