That's the same reversal as in the premise is it not? What am I missing.
I have yet to take this test, but I just noticed your post has yet to have any follow up.
Logically, these are the same mistake:
If the condi…
So a couple of things here we should keep in mind:
-I think we are given a problem in a familiar framework:
we have a phenomena and then we have a hypothesis. The argument has chosen to describe the phenomena a certain way to the exclusion of oth…
Hello, the form itself is valid. Meaning there is indeed an inescapable some relationship between Napping and eating meat derived from the premises above.
The issue of the super set (animals) that encompasses the subset (lions) is something we wil…
Consider looking at PT 48-1-24 when you get a chance. This argument is doing something similar to what you describe above (although not precisely the same.)
Excellent question.
If we have a group of 100 cats and 40% of them are gray=40 cats
and we have a group of 100 dogs and 30% of them are gray=30 dogs
then we have a group of 200 cats and dogs in which 70 are gray. That is not now 70%. That is 35…
@beezmoof there is a ton to say on this topic but I will keep this post brief. Belo are a few suggestions.
0.Skip: if you don't have that great of a handle on the argument: skip and come back. There is money to be made on the other questions. Al…
Recommended times per game are listed below the game explananations on 7Sage, you will see “target time:” These times range from 4 minutes to 15 minutes. These are very good numbers to try to reach, because they are geared towards completing the sec…

J.Y. gave the second stem its own category: Resolve/reconcile/explain. These kinds of questions actually appear frequently in the early LSATs too.
This is in my understanding incorrect. These questions are "evaluate" quest…
I've been really looking into sufficient/necessary flaws lately. A particularly difficult way in which the test writers described the flaw appears on PT A section 4 question 20.
In my experience the form is not that common, but the way in which the answer choice is formulated is more common. Earlier this week I did PT 46 and there is a flaw question on the third section (23) in which the test writers took a common flaw, hi…

I believe it first appeared in PT57. Here is the list by PowerScore up until 2016: http://www.powerscore.com/gamesbible/logic-games-rule-substitution/index.cfm

Hello, if you can do sufficient assumption question with no diagramming with a high degree of accuracy, fantastic. Don't fix what isn't broken.
As for your question about where this might lead you in the future, for the most part, if your logic is…
@"sbc.mom_3x" yes, that is an absurdly difficult game. A -13 on that section is not terrible considering this was your first post CC exam, the bus game appeared, plus you probably don't have a refined skipping strategy for games just yet. What I w…
There is certainly hope. If you don't mind me asking, how did you do on the games from PT 36? It contains in my estimation the single hardest game of all time.
The contrapositive is the logical equivalent of the original statement. I find it helpful with the contrapositive to think about what it is actually saying:
Original statement says:
If Water Breathing Mammal----->Limbs
What this means is that…
