I believe you have misidentified the specific question you are referencing. The question beginning: "public health experts have waged." Is not what you wrote about in your post. Please edit accordingly with proper location of the problem and I wi…

I think one of the keys is a focused and precise reading of the text and a knowledge of what the words mean. Take for instance 28-3-8. Here we have a stimulus where the AC actually just sums up the position of a particular portion of environmental…

I started taking a pretty hard stance on flaw questions in my studies. I think one should avail themselves of every single flaw question in history they can get their hands on by the time they sit for the exam. Flaw questions are highly repetitive…

Getting a specific game done in a specific amount of time is something that a test taker can manipulate to their own strengths and weaknesses. The times listed on 7Sage are target times. PT 70 for example, the times add up to 31 minutes. For PT C…

There are a couple of things I noticed about your post. I do not want in any way to come off as rude or arrogant, but please consider the following advice as given from a place of honesty. I and many others have been where you are with LR. In sho…

I understand your frustration. Before going into some strategies that have helped me with flaws, one thing I want to point out is that flaws are in the abstract, patterns of reasoning that repeat. The example you provided (41-3-20) is straight fro…

The first thing I noticed about this question is the convoluted question stem. My first thoughts were that apparently this was going to fall under the umbrella of the Resolve/Reconcile/Explain question type, meaning that there was going to be some …

Hello, your first point is something quite common throughout the process of getting stronger on the LR section of the LSAT. The question you referenced is asking us to pick something that "most strongly supports the conclusion drawn by the person."…

I would saying looking at this this afternoon that I would avoid conditional symbolization in solving this problem. We are told that a specific type of cotton has been around for decades but “only recently” became commercially worth it. Becoming c…

I do not look at the LSAT as a test of whether someone is "dumb" or not and I don't think many people do. I look at it more akin to a language exam or a boxing match: something where skills such as strength in conditional logic, reading for grammat…

A valid argument is a construction of an argument that logically allows us to draw a specific conclusion. So if I tell you something like: All cats are mammals and all mammals are endothermic, we are logically allowed to support the conclusion: a…

Edit: Team 2 is filled out completely, Team 1 is not complete, I was previously incorrect on a specific constraint on this game Lets start with team two and go through the eliminations. G cannot be on team 2 because G is on Team 1. K is already …

@Sprinkles hopefully one day when this exam is behind me, I will indeed give back to the community in that way, and maybe an RC intensive also.
-
I believe what you are facing is quite common. More importantly, I have heard and read many accounts of people overcoming the problem. It has been my experience that attaining success and keeping success sustained on games is certainly possible, b…

35-1-13 is a weakening question in the phenomena/hypothesis framework about acquired beliefs. Are we looking at the same question?
-
First, excellent job in questioning the reasoning behind the stimulus’ contention of likelihood of accidents. A skepticism towards the stimulus in this way is a great method for cutting through the confusion of many LR problems. For this problem w…

Excellent, excellent post by @"Cant Get Right"

I've noticed a trend in the questions I have read of yours. Allow me to provide what I see as guidance on the overarching issue here. This is a sufficient assumption question. What this means is that what we are given in the stimulus is missing a…
-
I see what it is you are saying here. For this particular question, we are not only going have to link up the conditionals correctly, but we are going to have to know how the words interact with each other, essentially, as I see it: in reality. As…

No effective law is unenforceable. What this means is that every effective law is (not) unenforceable, meaning enforceable. Effective law---->enforceable If we find something in the world that is not enforceable (unenforceable i.e. a failure o…

No worries my friend, we learn from breaking things down together as a community. 1.A "counterexample" is defined as: "an idea that refutes or disproves a proposition or theory." The modifier "putative" here signifies an assumed or supposed counte…

Thank you for tagging me, I am glad to help. I think it is helpful to break this problem down step by step, like Mr. Ping does in the lessons. Remember with this question the flaw the test writers are after is the flaw within the meteorologist’s r…

I should add that I started not being able to really answer a single question on LG correctly. I started somewhere at about -22/-21. Through a process that largely mirrors what 7Sages teaches and how I have adapted those lessons to fit my needs, I…
-
There are several broad aspects necessary for success on LG. I will outline what I see as a few of those aspects in this post and then offer my recommendations at the bottom of where I think you should go from here. You are going to want to look …
-
I believe the most effective way to answer this question would be to see it for what it is. We are asked to provide an assumption that would allow for what is stated (the conclusion) to follow logically, meaning this assumption we provide better ac…

Often times, with complex LR questions, I used to feel like I joined the conversation in the middle of a speech, that in essence, where we started to read from was a spot of confusion/uncertainty. This question in my estimation has that confusing f…
-
You are correct in asserting that spot 1 is reserved for R or Z. There aren't any true floaters in this game. As far as splitting, one of the things I want to mention is that I personally would not split this game. Fluency and comfort in our init…

Thank you both for the kind words!

I gave this some thought, I think you have a solid point, this might be something you want to reach out to the LSAC about. I have heard of them answering questions. Please keep me posted on when/if they respond to your inquiry. Nevertheless, I am…
