thoughts? part 2

I went through Superprep over spring break taking un-timed exams without reading the explanations thoroughly or the introductory information. I had not really began prepping intensively so I think I missed an opportunity to really see what makes LSAC tick on specific areas of the test.

I have an extra copy of the Superprep book somehow. So, how helpful would it be to go through the exams again using the explanations for all questions and read the introductory section explaining the exam? Did doing this help any of you gain critical insight that you would not have gained otherwise?

Thanks

I think most TLSers would agree that it is helpful. It really allows you to get inside the testmaker's mind and get a better idea of what they're looking for.

I read every single word of the intro to the exam and the LR and RC explanations. Do it.

Word, thanks I will. I am just focusing on reading the intro today. I really should have done this two months ago. I read 2 pages on what an argument is and I learned bits of info I did not even think about before.

You live and you learn, I guess

The intro is actually pretty good. I really like their RC coverage. Short, but covers a lot of important stuff that most people ignore.

The explanations can get a bit wordy, but they really show you what the test writers are looking for. I'm a bit biased because I'm releasing my own explanations soon that are much more concise.
