I always hear people talk about the logic games bible being a God-sent etc. I have never looked at it myself, because I got Logic Games right away, I get perfect almost everytime. Anyone else not need/use it in order to master this section?

I never used it, and managed to get between -0 and -3 consistently on PTs. However, I did have a private tutor.

I took a course as well, although it didn't really help, as soon as I did a few on my own I just noticed a pattern. But hybrid games are my only weakness because I can't figure out right away how to attack it.

I mastered LGs in about a week as well. I wish LR and RC came that fast too.

I didn't use the LGB. But I've enjoyed doing logic puzzles since I was about 10 years old, so I don't find them to be that hard. Plus, they're the only section where you can really be 100% sure of your answer - you can actually plug it in and it either works or it doesn't. I'm honestly surprised so many people find it to be the hardest section -- both LR and RC require some interpretation, with sometimes multiple answers that could be argued for. In LGs, wrong answers can just be proven to be wrong.

Nah, the only thing that helped me was using their diagramming symbols. You can easily make your own.

Though lower scores really have to attack each game type in a patterned way, but if you are smart enough that isn't necessary and is probably limiting.
