Where Should I Start with the LSAT?

[superlaw]

Hello everyone, im new to this site and would like some advise.
I want to take the February 2011 LSAT, since i'm working full time i can only devote about 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour at night and 5 hours each on my two days off, totalling about 20 per week. Also i have purchased the PowerScore Bibles for Games and Reasoning and i have a few Actual Prep Tests. Where do i start? Should i read chapter 1 of the bibles to the last chapter then do practice test or do a practice test weekly and determined from there where i need most help? do I need to learn to basics of the LSAT first then take practice tests?
Please any advise would be really appreciated.
Thanks for your comments.

I'd recommend taking an untimed practice test first, just to determine where your strengths and weaknesses are and go from there.  After two weeks, take a timed practice test to see how you respond to those constraints and find any new weaknesses.

I found that a lot of the theory behind logical reasoning also applies to the logic games and vice versa, so I found it very beneficial to concentrate on training myself to think logically.  The games came easily first for me, and the LR followed.  Other people will have different strengths, so I think it's best to do a diagnostic.

I took the February 2010 LSAT while working full time.  I was also in school part time last fall (which is why I didn't opt for the December 2009 exam!), so I definitely understand the time crunch.  I think you have a good study schedule laid out for yourself.  Spend the week learning the test, and spend the weekends taking a practice and going over the answers.  Slow and steady wins the race.

I agree with Megan with one exception. I would take an older practiced timed test to see where you stand as long as you understand you CAN improve.  You can't let the score discourage you.  By taking a timed test, you get the feel for what the test is.

EIther way will work, it depends on your outlook and determination
