61.A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (Penguin Classics) by: Mark Twain

I have always loved Mark Twain since reading Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer as a kid. At one point I had even memorized "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" as a seventh-grader in Catholic school. Twain has always held a sentimental place close to my heart, so when our book club chose to read and discuss A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, I was all for it.

I had heard vaguely of Twain's atheist mindset and his antagonism toward religion in general. But until I read Connecticut Yankee, I had no idea how much irrational and unfounded antipathy Twain had for the Catholic Church in particular. The pervasive theme in Connecticut Yankee is that our modern enlightened world is far superior to that which went before and that the "bad old days" of slavery and oppression ... Read More

Four and a half INCISIVE Stars!! Highly informative, deeply revealing!! If I could recommend one book to the new President-elect or the current President, this would be it!! In "DayDream Believers", Fred Kaplan has produced a very detailed study of the George W. Bush administration geopolitics in the 21st Century. But he does not confine himself solely to recent matters and one administration, going back decades in some cases to build his arguments and conclusions, dotted with rich personality profiles; the shifting, slippery international relations; awesome weapons systems; and military theory and intrigue. The author states that following the terrorists attacks on 9-11, the greatest misconception of the administration and the 'Neo-Cons/Vulcans' was that the world was significantly and forever ...

When I first took the SAT, I got a 650 on the writing section (yuck!). However, when I bought this book and diligently went through each problem set and studied all of the material in it, I got an 800 when I retook. So, I'll spare you the long winded details -- this book produces results. Buy it!

In the past, doctors attempted to define Premature Ejaculation (PE) in terms of how quickly the patient ejaculates. Some treatment centers believed that if a man lasted less than one minute after vaginal entry he was premature. Other groups used one and a half minutes or two minutes as their criterion. Instead of the natural enjoy, men with this type of PE have to struggle to hold back, and can only do so with tremendous effort and with a great deal of tension, which takes all the pleasure out of the act for themselves and also spoils it for their partners. In 1980s, Helen Singer Kaplan has proposed a new definition of PE, which has been adopted by the American Psychiatric Association and by the World Health Organization. According to the new diagnostic guidelines, the essential feature of PE is that the man lacks adequate ... Read More

Kaplan/Princeton Review: I don't recommend wasting any time with either of these books. They are much too basic. If you want to study for a couple weeks and just get familiar with the test, then these are fine. However, you won't do your best if you rely simply on these general books.

I recommend the following study method:

Introduction to the test: Look at the free stuff from LSAC

Logic Games: Read the book "Ace the LSAT Logic Games", by Get Prepped.

Logical Reasoning: read the book "LSAT Logical Reasoning Bible", by Power Score.
Notice that the conditional reasoning, formal logic, and parallel reasoning sections are probably the most helpful sections. However, these questions are by far the hardest on the logical reasoning section. I recommend saving them for last ... Read More
