A caused C B was absent when C occurred Therefore, B wouldn't cause C (C) is wrong not because the argument implies that B's absence caused C; it assumes that B does not also induce C. Sure, better training leads to declining fatalities. But woul…

@jyarmo said: I love this thread And I hate anything bio related in RC and for no good reason at all - they just intimidate me having never really studied nor had any interest in it since high school. Totally agree on riddled basins too, yuck…

Hard to say. Prof. Chemerinsky was very ambitious (remember his publicized goal regarding the institution's official first-year rank?) and had good reasons for dedicating himself to the school's ascent (one of which would be its failure to live up t…

@westcoastbestcoast said: Realizw that some law schools including some in t14 require you to submit a new PS when you reapply. How "new" does a new PS have to be? My current draft incorporates some new materials but is also substantially (ab…

But... but the study could have used an unrepresentative sample or a flawed methodology!

No need to clarify on that point. That's what this program is for; that's what we are here to do. 17. But doesn't B imply that, if B were true, which is what we are to assume per the Q-stem, there would be an attractant available? It feels li…

Sounds far, far more natural than the latter. Your latter interpretation designates obligation as a sufficient condition and best interests as a necessary condition. But the second sentence assigns best interests to the sufficient side, while the c…

Number 17 [...] I'm having a hard time seeing why B would not be a better means of the bacteria leaving the bad concentration. The problem with (B) is that it requires the presence of an attractant. For all we know, a bacterium may be placed in…

Does obligation here act as a necessity indicator? So Does this mean that if something is in the best interest of either party the party is required to act on it? or that if there is an obligation for either party the party must act in their own …

There's a rule against quoting directly from PTs (though this surely was inadvertent).

Probably the climate. I don't think many coastal states see people hanging out at beach during the winter season, and there's something magical about being able to course one's way through the year without spending money on earmuffs and whatnot.

If you take the January LSAT, your score will probably come out sometime in early February, late January at the earliest. At that point, you would be applying almost at the end of the cycle, trying to secure a seat after about five months' worth of …

During the 2016-2017 cycle, I received my final acceptance sometime toward the end of March. By then I had completely forgotten that I applied to that particular school. Keep your sanity for about two more weeks. Your deliverance is coming!

Cornell has been ranked 13th for quite a while now. The school must be under a lot of pressure nowadays. Georgetown changed T14 into T13; Cornell must be doing everything it can to ensure T13 doesn't change to T12.

Admission deans from Stanford, Duke, and Cornell like to mention an applicant who, despite having an otherwise perfect application, decided to draw a picture on his or her writing response sheet; rejected without further consideration. I have no rea…

Gotta hand it to UCI. The school is faring far beyond my initial expectations. Since UCI is proving itself to be a competent institution, I think the Golden State can afford to lose two or three law schools now. Way too many of them in California..…

I remember how unhappy and concerned Berkeley's faculty and staff were last year, with the drop in ranking, budget cuts, that one unfortunate incident, and whatnot. They must be quite relieved by now.

As much as I am inclined to say otherwise, if your Internet connection is unstable, then you may want to stick to Bibles and PTs. I live in an area where Internet connection is relatively stable, but it certainly tests my patience when it goes throu…

I'm not sure where to know that the motor's efficiency = electricity consumption One of those things test writers assume will be implicitly understood by reasonable, college-educated test takers, I suppose. (A) says that prior to the advent of…

Should I and can I call the schools to tell them I don’t want to report my Feb score? Don't even think about it. Since you told your schools that you will get a new score, chances are they are very eagerly waiting for an update from you. Beside…
