@u______u said: (A) actually says that the sales would have been lower without the competitor's campaign. That doesn't do anything for the argument. The argument goes like this: P: ignored my predictions and took the advice of a competing …

@saracrich said: Hey I just did this question so hopefully this explanation can help somewhat. First of all don't pick answer choices you don't understand unless you can absolutely rule out the rest. I didn't fully understand A but I knew B wa…

@"Pretzel Logic" said: Just a quick addition. According to the MSS core curriculum, here answer choice (A) "will be utterly unsupported." JY writes on MSS questions: "That means there is only one correct answer choice and four very wrong answe…

I hate this passage. My lack of economics background really dug me in. We're trying to pick a choice the authors would DISAGREE with. (Agree, Disagree and vice versa). I narrowed things down to B and D which, judging by your response, I am assuming…

I don't really see a triple conclusion. I only see one main conclusion, which is the last sentence. The argument is stating that because a lot of the info available to people who are trying to find medical information is mostly bs (quackery), that t…

@"Cant Get Right" said: This is a REALLY, uniquely hard question, and it makes for a really poor vehicle to discuss your actual question: "What do you do if you don't see anything wrong with the argument?" The problem with this question goes w…

@Logician said: Perhaps trying a top-down approach in which we reorganize the structure of the argument from the conclusion down will prove more helpful. Conclusion (sentence 3): Widespread effort for more restrictive air pollution contr…

@maxjab00 said: One thing that I have noticed with more difficult strengthen (and weaken as well) questions is that they are argument focused. They are less concerned with trying to strengthen the idea of the conclusion, but the strengthen the…

@WinningHere said: This is a strengthen question with causal reasoning. So find an answer choice that shores up the relationship between the cause and the effect--look for another example of the same cause and effect perhaps? Yes…I know it’s…

The stimulus opens with a comparison between the term "pit bull" versus "GS" and "poodle," the key difference being that while latter terms are labels for a specific breed of dog, the term "pit bull" is a label indicating what the dog's function is,…

@mattscrappy said: Paraphrasing is a great tool sometimes, and a time sink other times. For me, I decided that the right answer would probably highlight a difference in the two groups (7% vs 9%), but I also know that trying to think of all the…

@mesposito886 said: What prep test is this? Also is there a specific video where you got that rule from? It’s PT B…and I didn’t see it anywhere. It was a rule of thumb I thought should be adopted because I’ve seen explanations for strengthen…

@"AAR 1292" said: First Sentence: General Principle/Fact used to demonstrate how/why the conclusion of the argument will follow, given the scenario presented in the following sentences. Second Sentence: Presents the scenario that the abov…

Does this thing actually work? Especially now given how inflated the LSAT scores have gotten?
-
@"David.Busis" said: @Ashley2018 I think so! Will my score range be addressed specifically?
-
@CSieck3507 said: Had 2 RC's as well. First RC felt somewhat easy but last RC felt like a doozy. One game of LG really messed me up so I'm bummed about that and there were about 5 solid questions on LR that stumped me as well. Oh well... Janua…

lol everybody here being all healthy with the meditation and exercise and here I was thinking of taking sleeping pills the night before to calm myself down. I don’t have a diagnosable anxiety condition: I’m just a nervous wreck.

What if you never get picked? It’s like hunger games out there.

@"declan.pollard" said: It's definitely a gap that the LSAT expects you to notice, and assuming otherwise is falling for the trap they've laid for you. You can also look at this conditionally. You're assuming 'aware of threat threat' --&g…

@phosita_phoeatah said: @Ashley2018 said: At this point after being stuck at 165 for forever and ever I’m just looking at these kinds of posts and going like how? "How" is an easy question to answer: combination of dedicat…

At this point after being stuck at 165 for forever and ever I’m just looking at these kinds of posts and going like how?

@"declan.pollard" said: Correct, both are needed for the conclusion to be supported, but the premises do not support each other. The first sentence is something I'd define as a principle, or if that is too strong, a statement the author holds …

Will this webinar be helpful to people scoring in the 160’s but are trying to reach 170+?
-
@"declan.pollard" said: I think you're conflating the concepts of awareness and concern in this stimulus. The second sentence only mentions that the public is more aware of the severity of the threat of water contamination when compared to the…

@"karin.michael" said: So sorry to hear about the unfortunate encounters some have had with the exam! That said, if you are taking your test tomorrow (like myself), don't let this frazzle you. Each person will have a different encounter with t…

@Vectorthesupercutecat said: D is wrong because it does not guarantees the truth. The premise says the best students of a modern language MAY so immerse themselves. The question stem is referring to the last sentence though, the part about p…

Thank you for your post. I'd appreciate it if you could make this a series!

@maxjab00 said: I would say that this is a direct comparison, and the flaw is that it is an improper comparison. In short, the argument says that since we mostly agree that a doctor can still be a good doctor even though he is unhealthy, we ca…

@maxjab00 said: The conclusion is the first sentence, saying that our understanding of Greek and Latin is imperfect. A. No, the comment about travelling back in time is not the conclusion B. The time travel comment contrasts with the p…
