Which Cambridge Packets to Buy for Drilling?

I'm going to purchase Cambridge packets for drilling, but which set is the best to buy for LR and LG? I'm deciding between volumes 1 and 2 (so not the most recent ones). I want to make sure I'm drilling the types of questions that are most representative of current LSAT questions while still saving the most recent tests for PTs.

Use the 1-40 drill packets for targeted drilling so that you can use the more recent ones (41+) for actual prep tests. I purchased the LR bundles for 1-20 & 21-40. I'm probably going to get the LG bundles for 1-20 & 21-40.
Has anyone had much success with the reading comprehension packets from Cambridge?

I got the RC packets IMO I think it's better to drill by using actual whole sections. The packets are great for LR/LG, I highly recommend getting the 1-40 PTs to keep 41+ PTs fresh

Yeah, exactly. I find that for RC, the subject is not what determines the difficulty of the passage. That's why I don't think its necessary to buy their drill packets (since they organize their stuff by subject/question type).

I purchased the LR & LG Drills by Type, 1-38. I'm told (through this forum and others) that the LSAT Tests 1-38 give you any and every problem you'll encounter on the newer tests.
For the other tests--Tests 39+, I have the actual hard copy tests.

If you get a bundle, I'd recommend the Endurance edition.
