Actually, if we can classify the Panthers as nocturnal predators via the “that hunt at night” clause, I guess A would be right.

Yeah that’s what I got @"The 180 Bro_OVO" . There are just no overlapping terms to link the premises together. Broken down into logic, it basically says: No A are B Some X are Y Therefore: ? Of course, it’s easy to see once it’s reduced to logic…

I’m not sure how long to expect the session to last, but of course, everyone is free to come and go as they need. And yes, you definitely want to BR on your own first. It is agonizing to not check your score ASAP, so I suspect a lot of people will…

@allison.gill.sanford I’d waste all the time and money over again if I could just have back my first two tests! Oh well, I like a good come from behind story. And when I hit (or exceed) my score on the real thing, it’ll make a great 7Sage testimon…

Just remember what Mark Twain said: "Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to reform."

@sweetsecret said: This is going a lot slower than I thought it would be. This can be discouraging, but it’s actually really great. It goes a lot slower than everyone thought it would- for everyone who is doing it right. It is always tempting to…

I’ve really only just started on Games, but for me, it’s a matter of inherent distribution limits before the rules. So in a car game, that’s a standard grouping game because if A goes in car 1, A cannot go in car 2. In the dog show game, a dog can…

Yeah, I got here under very similar circumstances. I had been studying almost a year and, like you, just couldn't break much higher than about 160. I had seen the 7Sage videos on Games and decided if I really wanted to do this right, 7Sage might b…

I did one @MrSamIam and was really pleased with both the timed PT and BR. Outside of Games, which I hadn’t started fool proofing yet, no immediately conspicuous weaknesses. I definitely want to start building my data to start identifying weaknesse…

I started out with Ultimate+ so can’t really speak to the upgrade. From my understanding, the main difference is that the higher you go, the more access you get to explanations for the more difficult questions. So with Ultimate, I think you probab…
-
Thanks guys, that makes a lot of sense. I’ve still got a lot of ground work to do on games, so I think I’ll drill and do old PTs until I’m comfortable with games, and at that point move on to the newer PTs, whenever that may be.
-
So my Staedtler Noricas came in. They have a little more weight than the standard Ticonderogas, but the main difference is in the lead. It’s a relatively soft, creamy lead. It doesn’t hold its fresh, razor sharp point quite as long as the harder …
-
I intuitively understand conditionals as well, but I went ahead and memorized it so I could just do it mechanically. It was tedious and boring, but I’ve got to say, ever since I did it, my error rate is next to nothing. More importantly, it’s much…

We’ll see @danielznelson! I’m just excited to be tagged! They changed the username rules so I couldn’t have the epiphany in “Can’t” anymore because it was screwing everything up. Oh well, I stuck to my guns as long as I could. Y’all can tag me n…

Yeah, definitely BR on a clean copy. It does a lot to remove the emotions you attach to your original answer, and that really does change the name of the game. I burned a lot of tests before discovering 7Sage, and I plan on retaking every test 35 …
-
@danielznelson said: I inevitably cling to my original choice more than I should. You do use a clean copy for your BR though right? It seems like a really minor difference but it has a profound effect.

@runiggyrun said: BTW, I'm in the camp that believes inaction is the same as action in terms of bringing on consequences, especially in the kind of situation presented where intent or motivation are similar between action and inaction. Agreed. To…

We need a webinar where they just bring in a therapist for us, lol. Actually, I say that jokingly, but I’d totally attend that. Managing the psychological stress of LSAT prep is essential to success. @"Nicole Hopkins" , get us a therapist! And d…
-
Ouch @CocoZhang. Yeah, that’s going to be tough to accommodate. I haven’t attended any of the BR groups from previous schedules, but I can imagine a few ways you may could still benefit from them, even if you are not able to attend. Of course, th…
-
Right on @CocoZhang, I was in a similar situation with finding 7Sage after having studied for a long time before. It definitely made the core curriculum go by relatively fast.
-
@Mookittyy, I guess I mean really do the work and feel confident that you understand everything. It’s really easy to go through the valid inferences, for example, and just go through the lessons without really learning them. There are moments in t…

Man, I’ve been listening to 90’s music all day and I just can’t get enough.
-
Yeah, no problem. The point at issue here isn’t necessarily the guard’s motive. That’s a very natural and not unlikely scenario. Like, who is this guy even, did we even do a background check on him? But maybe he’s just incompetent. Maybe he doe…
-
Well, this is a parallel flaw question, so they are already telling you that the relationship between the premises and conclusion is invalid. You don’t question either element independently of the other. Rather, you’re looking for their relationsh…

Ok, I see what you’re saying. Maybe you’ve uncovered an additional reason that answer choice C is wrong. Wrong answers can get weird. Sometimes they’re wrong because of a single word. Other times they’re wrong for a plethora of reasons. If you …
-
So in addition to the chronology problem (which I missed on this question, so good job there) the main reason C is wrong is due to the issue of knowledge. Michiko adds the sufficient condition that “if they know that those actions risk such consequ…
-
Hell yeah you were!
-
@CocoZhang Yes and no. So, the curriculum does list the PTs, but most people consider that a separate study phase, distinct from the "core” curriculum which includes the lessons and strategies and everything. So, no, there is no inherent conflict …

@danielznelson said: I plan to start writing down the mistakes I've made (e.g. not reading the actual question thoroughly, forgetting a rule in a LG) in order to more consciously avoid the ridiculous mistakes I make. This is a brilliant idea, and …
