Yes! They mean the same thing. They are logical opposites.

Hey! I did the question and I agree with you about the questionable assumptions some AC's make. B,C,D appear to attack a premise (a rare thing too). A is clearly the best answer but I agree with you that E doesnt really weaken. C seems too weak t…

Hi! What is your goal score? I think the consensus in this community is that whether to delay your exam depends in large part on whether your average PT score (last fresh 5 PT's taken timed, under strict test conditions) is at least as high (prefe…

@BlindReviewer Thank you for your response! You are saying that effective prevention concerns only the number of cases prevented, not the reduced severity of the injury. The definition of prevention is to stop something from happening, so it doe…

This is great! Thanks for this thread! Last week: I took a PT. Got -8 on LG. Three days later re-took that LG section again without BRing and got -4. Still significant made errors. Misbubbling, forgetting a rule, misreading master gameboards x2 eac…

@FindingSage Thanks so much for the helpful tips. I will incorporate them into my prep!

@"Sam Tyler" Looking back I may also be able to give you more specific feedback. Generally speaking, are you struggling with games with few available game boards and big inferences, or games that are wide open that are usually just guess and che…

Thank you so much for your advice, guys!

Thank you so much, David! It is super helpful to read about your general approach and I hope to find my groove in logic games too. Recently, I got so stuck on game 2 (where I spent 14 minutes on that game alone and still missed 3 questions) that …

Thank you @"Logic Gainz" ! I totally get what you mean by the domain. Thank you for explaining it so thoroughly. I think I understand the question and the AC's now!!

@"Logic Gainz" Thank you Logic Gainz for taking your time to understand my confused state of mind! I was worried no one would comprehend my confusion. I have a question about the conditional statement representation: [Illness caused by str…

@username_hello said: For example, in PT55.1.7, a weaken phen/hypo question, answer choice E seems to provide an alternate explanation but is actually consistent with the conclusion, and is thus a trap wrong AC. What alternative explanatio…

@"samantha.ashley92" said: I'm kind of in the same position as you, where I've gone -4 LR section 1 and -7 LR section 2 on my last two PTs, and -4/-8 the time before. I have actually put a pause on PTing so that I can tackle the core issues he…

@"Rigid Designator" said: Generally speaking I never find an LR section hard, just individual questions. If I feel the whole section was hard this would indicate that I've badly mistimed the section, which in turn suggests I should have empl…

@Ohnoeshalpme said: On a good section, I'll circle around 6 and review all of them. On a bad section, I'll circle around 8 and get to most/all of them before time ends. Generally it comes down to time at the end though. The more I circle, th…

@eRetaker said: I personally don't feel nervous but I am quite often uncertain. I circle around 5 questions by the end of each section that I feel a bit uncertain about. Rarely do I feel like I destroyed a section when I finish and that feelin…

@keets993 said: Well, what's your BR score like? Thank you for your feedback! My BR score ranges from 173~175. I will take your advice and compare the sections that went well to those that went sour. So many things can go wrong under pressur…

@Ohnoeshalpme said: After you finish a section, you should have a good sense of how well you did. Thank you for responding! I should really develop a sense of how the section went, depending on how well the BR round went and how much I was a…

Thanks for replying, everyone! I was looking at PT43, Section 2, Question 21 about the curator and magazine. The stimulus refers to "most residents", and the right answer choice appears to paraphrase that as "public opinion". I got confused about …

Thank you for sharing your perspective shift. I've been suffering from focusing too much on the score that studying became too emotional. Every wrong question seemed to tell me how terrible I was at this test which really hurt my morale and motivati…

Hey! I just wanted to tell you i am in a similar situation as you and want to encourage you to keep hanging in there! My diagnostic was 153, which was taken February 2017. My PT scores fluctuate, but it's basically at 157. It is very, very dishear…
