Ping: Folks who have been through the law school process

A few questions:

1. While the general rule of thumb seems to be 60% LSAT score, 30% undergrad GPA, 10% other, I'm uncertain as to what qualifies as undergraduate GPA by law schools.

Is it the degree-granting institution only, as LSAC seems to suggest on their academic profile listing, or is it the entire GPA? (Which would be a headache for me to figure out, since there's five undergrad schools, one of which I earned an AA at).

2. Also, does graduate coursework and/or GPA figure into this at all, or is it in the 10% other category?

3. Best books to get/study for LSAT prep?

4. Are the LSAT prep classes worth it, or are they essentially a money grab?

I did a search on the forum, but much of the information seems to be about 9-10 years old, and I couldn't find anything about multiple undergraduate schools, so I figured I'd start a new thread.

Thanks.
