2010-05-20 About a 1 hour read...Buy something else (2 of 5)
This book is full of short tips, most of which you will probably already have seen elsewhere in places like the Princeton Review and the many 'how to get into law school' type books (e.g. Susan Estrich or Montauk). The chapter on holistic preparation, ( prayer, meditation, hypnosis, stress removal techniques, etc.) is the only part that stands out, but it's only one chapter. I've borrowed my copy from a library and I'm glad I didn't have to pay for very ephemeral pleasure of reading it. Thus, since it's short and not very helpful or original, I'd buy something else.

2010-05-18 Gives you dangerously wrong ideas (1 of 5)
Gives you dangerously wrong ideas such as:
* take a 35 minutes brake during The Experimental Section (do you know where exactly this section is? You might end up taking a break during scored section!)
* take some drugs to control your anxiety or practice some yoga instead of studying
* pick questions choices that are the longest (really?!)
Examples used in her book are not from actual LSATs, they are made up by her and they are quite different from LSAT
Buy a different book!

2010-05-02 Don't waste your money buying this book (1 of 5)
I bought this book because the title was appealing and the good reviews it had received. This book was a huge disappointment. The 101 ways mostly consist of throwaway paragraphs packaged as tips. Here's some of the more ridiculous ways (you can verify these for yourself by looking at the table of contents):
49. Drink Plenty of Water
54. Therapeutic Massage for Stress Relief
56. Hypnosis as a Tool for Improving Test Scores

As you can see, the author believes in a "holistic" approach to the LSAT. As such, a large part of this book is devoted to talking about how you need to eat right, get a decent amount of rest, don't stress yourself out, and other obvious notes that you already knew to do. As for the "questions" that other reviewers mentioned, they are few and far between, and only a handful are from past LSATs. Most of the useful information in this book can either be found on the LSAC's LSAT web page or in the free resources offered by test prep companies (Kaplan, Powerscore, Princeton Review)

All in all, you're much better off buying a real LSAT test prep book from Kaplan, Powerscore, Princeton Review, etc. rather than throw money away on this book.

2010-03-15 good book! (5 of 5)
Thorough explanation of of the aspects involved in preparing to take and succeed on the LSAT.

Definitely some great tips and not just on the LSAT but on school and working as a lawyer. For the price, I recommend for someone interesting in law school. I really didn't see an increase in my score by reading the book. I think the other study materials are much better for that but this did add some insightful information.
