Study strategy/approach question Forum

Is it more advantageous to study one section completely (e.g. logic games until you've got a very good handle on it) before moving to the others, or is it better to kind of mix it up between the three? The Trainer has me frequently jumping from logical reasoning to logic games and back, but to me it seems like it would be better to completely go through logic games in the Trainer and PowerScore before moving onto logical reasoning (or vice versa), with regular drilling and review.

Yeah, just follow the trainer chronologically in order to get a basic 'feel' for the test and all of its components. Then, get either the blueprint LG or the LG Bible and go through the guides while drilling relentlessly each and every type of game/question. After mastering this section completely, or at least until you can't stomach to look at another game for awhile, then move on to LR (Bible or Manhattan). Finally, go through RC. After all of the fundamental prep stages, take full-length practice tests and identify your weaknesses. Then go back and focus you studying on the sections which you feel weakest on, slowly sealing up any holes in you LSAT repertoire.
