It's also important to keep these ratings in perspective. What is a 5 question for most people of the LSAT could actually be a 1 for you, with the reverse also being true. Be diligent about noting what is difficult FOR YOU specifically so you can wo…
Oh man, this question is insanely tough. I remember it taking me an hour to understand what was going on when I first reviewed this question.
So this is a really weird argument by analogy. The necessary assumption then needs to be one that doesn't…
I think a lesson that can be learned from this question is to be flexible in the flaw you choose. I think you attempted to conform answer choice (C) to your original hypothesis without legitimately being able to eliminate (E). In terms of the most s…
I think this depends on how you came to (C). Did you pick (C) because you incorrectly eliminated (E) for faulty reasons? Were you stuck between (C) and (E) and just chose (C) because it went more with your guy?
It's fine if it's too big of a leap though. It's a principle, right? You're trying to find an answer choice that has a principle that is broad enough to encompass the particular example given in the stimulus.
Maybe someone else can back me up here but I actually don't think it's saying that. The line is: "It is certainly true that the characters are too stylized to be real people." All we know about the effect of the stylization is that it's overly done …
Actually, the stimulus doesn't say that stylistic portrayals are important in humor. That is a separate premise.
Conclusion: Quirks is misguided for saying it's not realistic
Why?
P1: It is true that the characters are too stylized
P2: The film …
Hi @kdeel296,
I'm glad you got that off your chest - it's a lot to carry around with you. As far as the advice...
+ DO NOT GO TO LAW SCHOOL UNLESS YOU KNOW FOR SURE YOU WANT TO BE A LAWYER. Why? It costs a ton of money, an insane amount of studyin…
Man, it's so good to know that I'm not alone. It's a totally shitty feeling but I feel validated in my decision to do some light timed sections instead of PT after PT after PT, even though that's what I want to do to prove to myself I'm game day rea…
So, I always found the change "unless" to "if not" really weird for me. It made me focus too much on diagramming instead of really understanding the argument. The heart of the language is that "unless" means it is necessary. That's always the way I …
@Alejandro To play to your devil's advocate:
She's not saying that other women would appear like her. She's just saying that of the many ways to deal with sexism, she chose to come off unemotional and detached. To her opponents that say she's inhum…
Oh man, the STRUGGLE IS SO REAL. I've seen nothing but dips in my scores and I've been doing everything in my power to not freak the eff out. Take some R&R time. If you really can't put the LSAT away, like me, do some light drilling. I just want…
Your diagram of the first one is correct:
Go out -> good grade
But not of the second one. It should be:
Go out --> 4.0
Whatever follows the "unless" is the necessary condition to whatever came before the "unless." To put it in actual lang…
As a start, you can do what I did and "pretend" to take every PT on 7sage to get to the analytics page, select all tests, and then filter by section and difficulty level.
I just wanted to say solidarity. I'm currently teaching in the Bay and, man, studying while teaching has been one of the hardest things I've ever had to do
So you don't always want to diagram but this question is just giving you so many relationships, you don't want to place the burden on remembering everything.
@"Tina Cho" I know it's hard but you really have to resist questioning the stimulus for this question. Sometimes, it could be helpful to use real logic to help you understand an argument better or to even challenge what's been given to you (like fla…
^^ what nye said. It requires less logical leaps to reason why an actor could have written the abridgement (he/she remembers his lines the best) than a spectator (because you'd have to assume that the spectator was not a neutral spectator but a bias…
Ooo, the principle, MSS, and parallel questions felt harder for me too, which was a shame because my accuracy used to be near perfect for these. What I realized is that the difference between the trap answer choice and the right answer choice is one…
