KM is a biconditional. It is read both ways and we can also read the contrapositives. This is designed to cover every possible world in the in and out game. So unpacking the biconditional reading the arrow forward we have: KM If K is in then M …

Where I would start is by asking in your understanding, what is our job on necessary assumption questions? I believe the way in which you answer that question could reveal where your hang ups might be.

Advice on what specifically to do to reach the goal of -3/-5 by test day is a bit difficult because we are treading a strategic fine line. Ideally, you want both interaction with newer sets but you don't want to burn the newer sets in haste. With …

I mean fool proof every possible game you can get your hands on after you have done them as part of a timed set. Easy through hard games, apply the fool proof process to every game you can. It has been my experience that if you want to get good a …

It is possible that you can score a -0. The exam is...3 weeks out? It is possible but not probable in my estimation. Getting that -8 down to a -5 or -4 is certainly doable, but that last couple of steps to getting a -0 can be a really arduous pro…

What are you currently scoring on a fresh section timed?

I see what you are saying here. I believe by definition if we use Green, Purple, Rose and Rose that is a bit of a tautology. We are simply saying Green. Purple, Rose.” This is because, as pointed out above, we are instructed in the set up to coun…

This question is a cross section of various tricks the LSAT often uses, thank you for drawing my attention to it. I am going to try to write an explanation without getting too much into the weeds of the math here, because I believe the abstract for…

Your question is contingent upon what your goal score is. In my estimation, if your goal score is 165+ the answer is no, there is no way I can see of balancing what you cut out with what might potentially show up on an exam. If that is the range of…

It is my understanding that you are both essentially correct. All = 100% logical opposite Not all= not 100% Some are not=Not all, which= not 100% logical opposite All=100% That is the core relationship here. Where I would suggest going from …

Congrats, that is an incredible achievement!

For me personally, brute force is the last resort. I believe finessing the questions and knowing where strategically to start testing answer choices should come before brute force. If I lack that skill before implementing brute force, then I have …

As far as your point of the "few" aspect of the conclusion, let me attempt to clear that up. First: this is an older test, often with older tests the language is not as tight as we would like it. We kinda have to take these test for what they are.…

Hello, the flaw here is that we are told that a full understanding of something has two requirements. We can map this statement out as follows: Full understanding----->Appreciation of significance and direct involvement So for the purposes of …
-
I read answer choice (A) as "ignores or blocks the possibility of counter evidence." The flaw here is that the first person says X does not work for some people and the second person says: if it does not work, it just shows they haven't tried hard …

The primary way that I can think of to save time on this specific question would be to be deeply familiar with the mechanics of this question itself and be ready to dispense that understanding if something like this should pop up again. I did this …

I'm not in the habit of lying. I wouldn't call those scores a fluke. I have read your comments on various threads and can say with a high degree of confidence that you are both competent and possess valuable insight into various aspects of the LSA…

The core of this question is something that has come up before. I believe understanding flaws and analyzing them goes a long way in improving LR scores. I think there are two complimentary ways to solve this question. First, there is the cookie-cu…

I have this question in a notebook I am compiling that I look at daily. Each question I put in the notebook has something unique to it that I keep with me as a quick 2 second reminder on future questions. This question is a bit difficult because t…

This is an interesting question because the question stem is a bit odd but at bottom, taps into something we are familiar with. We are asked to abstract the line of criticism used in the stimulus, and then find the answer choice that is most vulner…

Congrats @AllezAllez21 !

In summation (my apologies for the double post) the assumption you carried with you on your reading of (B) according to your post is that the antibiotics treated an air sac disease. We do not know this.

Hello. So this question follows a pattern that will come up again throughout preptests. We are asked to strengthen the hypothesis. The hypothesis given is something that purports to explain a given phenomena. Our phenomena here is that the male …

I'm not a September test taker, but might I suggest a book? Anne Applebaum's newest book comes out tomorrow. "Red Famine: Stalin's War on Ukraine" For my money, Applebaum is the greatest American to ever take on the subject of Soviet history. Se…

The original question appears on PT 51. "... this question confuses how a variable relates to a group of other variables and how it can change independent of those variables and yet still relate to those variables in a similar way." Basically, we …

I'm fairly confident I have this original question in my notes. Nice job with the example above. I believe you have constructed a problem that contains a similar assumption.

@LSATcantwin thank you for the response (E) states: "Advertisements should promote---->healthy" Healthy---->Should promote who/what should not promote? Advertisements I believe the problem I see here is that this answer choice is telling …

This is a very difficult question and one in which I feel I would get wrong 10 times out of 10. I'm not too certain of the usefulness of this question to be honest. I try never to say that, but I believe it is warranted in this case. We are asked…

Maybe study lightly with an eye to one day tutoring someone? What I hope to do when I have taken the test is offer a free introduction at my local community college to the LG on the June 2007 exam (as long as that is ok with the LSAC) as well as gi…

Solid write up. Like many problems we encounter on the LSAT, we often have a grasp on the majority of the information, there is simply a gap in our understanding. Fill in enough of these gaps with a concrete understanding of the fundamentals and w…
