This book will provide you with a powerful and comprehensive system for attacking any Reading Comprehension question that you may encounter on the LSAT.

In an effort to clearly explain the fundamental principles of the Reading Comprehension section, this book contains substantial discussions of how to deconstruct the passages, how to identify and attack the questions, and how to successfully avoid traps set by the test makers. In addition, The PowerScore LSAT Reading Comprehension Bible contains a variety of drills and exercises that supplement the discussion of techniques and question analysis. The drills help strengthen specific skills that are critical for LSAT excellence; for this reason they are as important as the LSAT questions.

At the end of the book, you will find a complete quick-reference answer key to all of the problems. This includes chapter-by-chapter answer keys, and a unique reverse lookup feature that lists all of the included passages, sorted by the LSAT administration date and PrepTest number.

"Simply, the best book on Reading Comprehension. After going through this book I didn't only see a rise in my LSAT score, but my general reading comprehension improved markedly."

By C. McIntyreon (Amazon verified purchaser)

"This book has helped out my score on the reading comprehension sections quite a bit! On my first (cold test), I was writing 13-14 correct per section, after about two months of using this book (and taking practice tests), I'm consistently writing 20-22 correct per section. This book helped me figure out what the LSAT looks for, as well as tips to handling the different types of questions."

By Will

"Great book, the strategies promoted in this book worked much better for me than strategies promoted by other books. If you are looking to be a high scorer on the LSAT I highly recommend this book. After implementing these strategies my RC score improved from a -7 to a -3 in about two weeks. That was the difference between a 168 and a 171 for me."

Frequently Asked Questions

Does The PowerScore LSAT Reading Comprehension Bible use real LSAT questions?
Yes, we believe using real questions is crucial for high-level LSAT preparation. The Reading Comprehension Bible features 18 passages drawn from previously released LSATs.
Is the Reading Comprehension Bible just a collection of problems or will it teach me how to understand and solve reading comprehension questions?
The purpose of the Reading Comprehension Bible is to teach you how to attack and solve every type of Reading Comprehension question that appears on the LSAT. There are extensive explanations of the PowerScore methodology, how-to’s on deconstructing passages, helpful drills, and of course full explanations to all the problems in the book. The book features real LSAT questions to help explain our approach and to provide you with practice in applying our techniques.
If some of the questions in the book are drawn from the 10 Real LSAT PrepTests or 10 More Real LSAT PrepTests will that hurt my preparation?
No! First, there are hundreds of LSAT Reading Comprehension passages currently in release from LSAC, and we use only a fraction of those in the Reading Comprehension Bible. And, a number of the passages in the book are NOT drawn from the 10 Real LSAT PrepTests or 10 More Real LSAT PrepTests. Regardless, even if you encounter a problem in a practice test that you have seen in the book, the Bible will show you how to attack that question in the most efficient manner possible. You cannot be hurt by seeing the best way to solve a question, and many students realize after reading the Reading Comprehension Bible that methods they previously used and thought were efficient were in fact inefficient.

In addition, the Reading Comprehension Bible contains a number of drills that will help you learn the skills taught in the book. Between the drills and questions, you will have a variety of opportunities to learn and apply the PowerScore methodology.
