Using one or more than one books for the LSAT preparation is a wise way to prepare and perform well in the exam. For a higher score and better practice, at least two books are recommended by most counselors. Preparation must be started well in advance, i.e. a minimum of three months before the exam for good results. The best books to use are the official guides published by the LSAC, which prepares the questions on the test. This is the only book made with the material that is very much similar to the actual test. However, there will be a difference between the questions asked in the actual test and the ones in the other books.
Apart from that, there are many unofficial guides that provide different ways of preparing for the test to improve one’s score. Good unofficial guides provide time-proven test-taking strategies and help one understand concepts by providing lucid explanations behind the correct answers. So, there is a greater chance of a good score if one prepares from one official and one unofficial guide.
