Introduction
Welcome to the PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible Workbook. This book
is designed for use after you read the PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible;
the purpose of this workbook is to help you better understand the ideas
presented in the Games Bible, and to allow you to practice the application of
our methods and techniques. This is not a how-to manual, but rather a
traditional workbook designed to reinforce the skills and approaches that
will enable you to master the games section of the LSAT.
If you are looking for a how-to manual, please refer to the PowerScore
LSAT Logic Games Bible, which provides the conceptual basis for the
setups, rule diagramming, and general strategies you will be practicing
here. In the discussions of game approaches and techniques in this
workbook, we will assume that you have read the Logic Games Bible and
are familiar with its basic terminology.
To help you practice the application of your Logic Game skills, this book is
divided into two sections:
Section One: Practice Drills
The first section of this workbook contains drills which test isolated
analytical abilities, designed to reinforce and improve the specific skills
necessary to successfully attack the Logic Games section. The set of
drills is followed by an answer key explaining each item.
Section Two: Individual Games

Loading page 15...

The second section of this workbook contains eight individual LSAT
Logic Games, each of which comes from an actual LSAT and is used
with the permission of LSAC, the producers of the LSAT. At the end of
the section is a comprehensive explanation of each game, including a
discussion of the setup, each rule diagram, inferences, and a complete
explanation of every question. This is an excellent section for testing
and reinforcing your game skills on days when your time is limited.
Each part is easily located using the black sidebars that mark each section.
As you finish each item, we suggest that you carefully read the
corresponding explanation. Examine the correct answer choice, but also
study the incorrect answer choices. Look again at the problem and
determine which elements led to the correct answer. Study the
explanations and setups provided in the book and check them against your
own work to assess and improve vital game skills. By doing so you will
greatly increase your chances of performing well on the Logic Games
section of the LSAT.
Finally, in our LSAT courses, in our admissions consulting programs, and
in our publications, we always strive to present the most accurate and up-
to-date information available. Consequently, we have devoted a section of
our website to Logic Games Bible Workbook students. This free online
resource area offers supplements to the book material and provides updates
as needed. There is also an official book evaluation form that we strongly
encourage you to use.

Chapter Notes
This section contains a large set of drills designed to achieve the following
goals:

Loading page 18...

1. To expand your knowledge of the language used in LSAT rules, and
to further familiarize you with the correct representation for each
rule.
2. To examine the interaction of variables and relationships, and to
explain the different ways that the LSAT uses those elements.
3. To isolate and test certain skills that are used in Logic Games, and
refresh and refine your abilities to apply those skills.
4. To expose you to a variety of game situations and overall game
concepts.
We believe the best approach is to complete each drill using scratch paper,
and then check the answer key in the back, examining both the questions
you answered correctly and the ones you answered incorrectly.
These drills have no timing restrictions. Instead of worrying about speed,
focus on a complete understanding of the idea under examination. Later in
this book there will be timed exercises to give you practice with the timing
element.
Rule Origin Drill
Each of the following items presents a Logic Game rule in final diagram
form, followed by five lettered answer choices. Select the one answer choice
that contains language that produces the exact rule diagram in the problem.
In Linear diagrams, the position of variables is assumed to be ordered from
left to right, first to last, highest rank to lowest rank, etc. Blocks and arrows
could reflect Linear or Grouping relationships, so read the answer choices
