  Hey @Summer518,
  
  I know J.Y. recommends the LSAT Trainer, as do many of the Sages and successful super preppers.
  
  I also endorse using The Trainer for a few reasons. I think it's the best LSAT prep book, and it goes along very well with 7Sage's curriculum well. There are not many discrepancies between how J.Y. and Mike Kim do things, so you won't run into any trouble with competing methodologies.Whereas I found a bunch of problems with trying to use the logic games bible and 7Sage.

  @Summer518 ,
  
  Also, I think to arrange time around it, I would do one at a time. I think it is fine to do them simultaneously, but I messaged Mike Kim and he said JY and him both agreed to do one at a time.
  
  I would recommend going through the 7Sage CC first and then follow one of the free study schedules on the LSAT Trainer website. They are meant to be super flexible and are perfect for when you are ready for the drilling stage, but still want to shore up your skills.

  Yeah, Alex pretty much covered it.
  
  My feelings about the bibles are well documented at this point, lol. I’m starting to almost feel bad about it, so I’ll keep it brief. So, definitely don’t use the LG bible. There is room for the LR bible to be a little worse, but the methods are for the most part not very compatible with 7Sage. I hear nothing but wonderful things about David Killoran though. By all accounts he’s a delightful person.

  Just focus on the course for now and if you want to beef up your studying, then check out the LSAT trainer only because it compliments 7sage material for the most part.

  Oh yeah, forgot about that one. Well, it’s pretty forgettable. I’m not really sure what the point of it is.

  Pretty much what @"Cant Get Right" said. Ugh I was so disappointed in powerscore for releasing such a crappy book on RC. if anything it's LR Bible's ugly little sister.

  @Summer518 Yeah, @"Cant Get Right" and @montaha.rizeq nailed it on the RC Bible. Unfortunately, when I began my prep in June, I decided to buy every LSAT book under the sun, searching for "silver bullets" as Sage Nicole Hopkins puts it. When I got to the RC Bible I felt like someone legit ripped me off. It was nothing more than practice passages with explanations on the questions/answers. It doesn't have any real strategy behind it. I am actually a fan of the LR Bible, so if you have that, I wouldn't throw it to the curb. I know it isn't the most popular opinion, but I think it is nice to reach for if you need a different explanation or approach for a question type.
