LSAT Books for GMAT Verbal Prep

LSAT books, particularly Powerscore RC and Powerscore LR, can be effectively incorporated into one's GMAT studies. I used these two books, along with the LSAT SuperPrep. In my opinion, the RC questions are excellent. LSAT questions are considered more difficult than their GMAT counterparts.

I would, however, advise you to pick either the Powerscore LR or Powerscore CR - not both. The LR version is identical to the CR book, except that it's much larger and covers more topics. Purchasing both the CR and LR would be a waste of money.

It's also worth noting that Powescore LR and Powerscore RC are expensive, difficult, and take a great deal of time to finish.

There are, of course, many more discussions on this topic scattered throughout GMATClub. But these links provide enough information to make a decision.

The LSAT LR section that gave me the most trouble was Conditional Reasoning. If you can handle that, then you're the man!

But if you're going to invest in the Powerscore LR Bible, then I suggest going through it completely. It toughens you up and allows you to see GMAT CR from a different and more complete perspective. I don't think that the book is necessary for most people, though. Powerscore CR is the most popular GMAT-specific book on this topic and should be enough. Plus, it's cheaper and smaller.
