This is a good point. Buy actual old LSAT tests (a book of 10 at Chapters) and write one full one in the actual time allotted. If you score 160 (approximately the magic number - varies based on GPA) or above, you could consider saving your money as you might be able to get by without prep.

The one advantage of Renert is they teach you so much information in addition to just logical, analytical, reading comp. The one key thing so many people dont realize when heading in to write the LSAT is that the administrative stuff involved with the test takes forever. Lots of test takers get themselves so amped up to write minutes after the door opens, when in reality, it's nearly an hour of finger-printing, instruction reading, seat assigning, etc... I think that was a big advantage for me knowing that I could relax a lot even after getting into the test room.
