Just purchased the Manhattan Trilogy..what tests?

by AleksanderD731 Wed Oct 11, 2017 4:15 am

Hello everyone!

I just recently purchased all 3 of the Manhattan Guides to begin studying for the LSAT.

I'm wondering what tests I should buy to study with. I want to make sure I have everything. Which books of PTs should I buy specifically and how many of those tests should I use to drilling/learning and which ones for full timed exams?

I've started reading the books and I have to say Manhattan is by far the best prep books I've come across. Everything is starting to make sense!

Thank you in advance

Hey, Aleksander.

You should definitely buy the just-released Volume VI of LSAC's series of 10-test books. This new edition gives you the 10 most recently released tests (72 thru 81).

Here's a link for a google search:
https://www.google.com/search?q=lsac+72 ... e&ie=UTF-8

It looks like they're between $20-26.

I would suggest you use THAT book of ten tests primarily for taking full length practice tests.

Then, buy the previous edition, tests 62 thru 71, and use those for working through examples. If you find you need/want more LSAT problems than those 20 tests would give you, then you'd buy the edition before that, which goes from 52 thru 61.

If you come across older compilations of tests for way less, feel free to use those for practice. They still have plenty to teach us about how LSAT works. But ultimately the modern tests have subtly different style and voice, so it's good to maximize your practice on that material.

Good luck / enjoy!

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it :)

I ordered all the tests from 52-81 from those 3 books.

Do you think those will be sufficient along with the Manhattan trilogy to help me reach a 165?

I'm taking the test in February or June of 2018.

Thank you again :)

Manhattan is the best
