Nailed it! Rule of 15 was Money!

Would you listen to LSAT Necessary again? Why?

Most other LSAT books are "buy my one-on-one program/seminar, bla bla" but this book delivers more for so much a fraction of the price. I wish it had actual practice problems but it makes sense not to as you want to use actual LSAC practice problems anyways.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Thinking Scripts in the Appendix was Clutch

What about Christopher Grove’s performance did you like?

Straight to point, no BS, nothing but hard core strategy

What insight do you think you’ll apply from LSAT Necessary?

The Logical Reasoning Patterns were Fantastic in this book. Shah helps you see them so easily. You need to practice them on a live prep test however.

Any additional comments?

Great listen, wasn't boring, and author weaved in practical stories such as his business experience to show how LSAT is a business and how to master the game.

Who was your favorite character and why?

How law schools work from the inside was a great revealing point

What about Christopher Grove’s performance did you like?

The must logical reasoning common patterns were stellar

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

A MUST READ- if you want to get into law school

Would you consider the audio edition of LSAT Necessary to be better than the print version?

One of the best books I have read to date. This author breaks down the material in an easy format and makes it stick. Very easy and well said. I highly recommend it.

What was one of the most memorable moments of LSAT Necessary?

Most definetly is reading comprehension scripts. The thinking scripts helped me get from A-Z without reading a passage then saying "what did I just read?"

Which scene was your favorite?

RC scripts, and Inferences MBT patterns-they are gold!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

The author's story of getting into law school was so INSPIRATIONAL. OMG---I JUST want to take a full practice test right now!

Any additional comments?

Best patterns I have seen. Great book if you want to learn theory fast and then go practice on live problems. This book does not have live problems but you can get them through the law school council directly "super prep" tests. That is what I did. It worked great
