@"Cant Get Right"
Just a few follow up questions RE:"RC has gotten particularly hard, LG has trended fairly standard, and LR has been far less concerned with routine, structural logic".
Does this mean that we are pro…
Because I’d heard so much about these, I went just to see. Honesty, there wasn’t anything that anyone with common sense and a reasonable familiarity with the test shouldn’t know. I mean, one of their tips was literally just that the 3 or 4 most rece…
This will not be recorded, but I may do this one again soon. And if I do it a second time, I'll do it at a different time/day, so hopefully that resolves schedule conflicts people may have from the this one. I'll announce on this thread if I decide …
When I first started studying, I was working about 70 hours a week. It was incredibly difficult to give what little I had left after work to the LSAT. I feel you. But I managed to study pretty effectively and added about 15 points from my diagnostic…

@"Cant Get Right" Thanks for your time and knowledge tonight! Much appreciated! -Jas
You’re welcome! This was a really fun one, and thank you for your excellent questions.
Your time management is a big problem. That's the most conspicuous thing I see. If you want to score consistently into the 170's, "often, but not always" having enough time to finish just won't cut it. For example, my "often, but not always" task is…
This is happening tomorrow, so just wanted to give it a bump! Remember to bring questions! I also want to note that we will not be screensharing any copyrighted LSAC materials, so those in attendance should come prepared to access whatever material …

Hi! My first time posting on here. So excited I think I can answer your question.
A necessary assumption is not every assumption an argument makes but a specific type of assumption that when the conclusion is true, thes…
Well you’ve got to get that LG average down. How to go about that depends on a lot of factors, but that’s the obvious standout.
Beyond that, you’ve got to accept a certain margin of error. You don’t have time to outright solve every question on the…
Don’t characterize your errors as dumb mistakes. Even if they are, and they’re probably not, such mistakes aren’t really correctable, so you’re dead-ending your inquiry into this really vital set. Rather, overlooking a vital word should be thought o…
There's a lot of tutors out there, and they run the spectrum from the truly great to the spectacularly awful. There's a lot of easy ways to weed out the really bad ones, but that still leaves a ton of middle-of-the-roaders being priced the same as t…

Take it and take it again if ur not happy. LOL not sure what all ^^ that is about, dont overthink dude its simple
It is not simple at all.
There are a few specific reasons this might be happening. The problem is knowing exactly which one it is. So the bad news is that you probably have invested a lot of time and energy for nothing because you’ve been addressing things that likely aren’…

Awesome! I just finished a simple sequencing game, I am going to play with this! Thanks a lot for taking the time to post.
You're welcome, let us know how it goes! This is not a good way to take Games, but it'll be a…

Can you elaborate? My view is that a particular statement can be necessary for the argument to be valid, sufficient for it to be valid, or both. But the word "assumption" has a particular definition that is in line wit…
I’m not getting all the hating on sufficient assumptions. They are totally real assumptions which were identified as far back as Aristotle. They are a staple of formal logic, and necessary assumptions rely on their relationship to a sufficient assum…
Y’all should fish up the old pencil thread. Legendary 7Sage post right on par with @Pacifico ’s ‘Logic Games Attack Strategy.’
I don’t care what anyone says, stay clear of Ticonderogas. Sure they stay sharp a little longer than softer leads, but th…
An algorithm could do it fairly simply, but I’m not sure if that counts for what you’re looking for or not:
Represent first rule with split game boards.
Working only from your prior split game boards, represent next rule with split game boards.
