You don't need to assume the higher the efficiency the higher the effectiveness because the conclusion is only limited to whether or not you can ascertain the effectiveness of a particular model from knowledge about motor power alone. Our task if ve…
There are times when a sufficient assumption does not take the form of a conditional--this is one of those cases.
The conclusion is we cannot measure effectiveness by knowing power. Why? Because even when power is identical, the efficiency varies.

EDIT: it is clear that these are not official LSAT questions. Just a testament to how precise and clear LSAC is, because I knew immediately that these were not.

Good argument, because Ash…
Right, you're interpreting E to mean "G, L, and M all see different films from each other." Instead, E is saying a GLM block cannot all go into one film.
In general, the "logical difficulty" of a test can be seen by viewing its scale, so a test with a more lenient scale is more logically difficult than one with a less forgiving scale. As @7sagelsatstudent180 said, this is so the tests can be statisti…
I don't think I've ever seen a flaw that looks like D and I would be comfortable eliminating it on that basis. I think the answer would only be correct if the author was making the point that because an opinion is held my most people, it must necess…
A seems great when you negate it. "Some of the employees are not paid significantly more than the minimum wage" is negated to "all employees are paid significantly more than the min wage", and if this is true, then the increase in the min wage would…
I just wrote this to someone else, so I thought I would repost here as well:
"Retakes are immensely beneficial, so don't shy away from them just because you've taken them already. You'll be surprised how much you don't remember. Also, the early tes…
Straight from the fox's mouth!
"Fact 1: Schools will only care about your highest score. It is the only score that goes to USNWR. The mandate on the admissions office is to only care about your highest score (Yale might be the one exception). We an…
7Sage Starter! Do it! Also, remember you have a great community of 7Sagers to help you out along the way. You'll be amazed at how responsive and helpful everyone is around here.
Yes. Mike Spivey has written on his blog that even a +1 point differential can make a huge difference! So, if you think you still have some juice left in you, then go for it! He also dispelled the myth that retaking and experiencing a drop in your s…
Well, you don't have to make sure the experiment meets any robust scientific standards by any means, so don't take the time to make sure ALL of the requirements match up. Instead, take the science out of it because it can get intimidating at times. …
Coming webinars! Yeaaaaa! Look forward to seeing you there if and when I have one
As for some advice, which is really why you're here: I took a really long break from the LSAT, Dec to May/June-ish. Before I stepped back into the game, I retook som…
Retakes are immensely beneficial, so don't shy away from them just because you've taken them already. You'll be surprised how much you don't remember. Also, the early tests are valuable too! I honestly believe that you have to be anticipating answer…
Finishing sections early doesn't necessarily mean that you know your stuff, so just honestly evaluate where you are in your prep. Maybe you're finishing early because you're rushing through the stimuli without giving them a proper analysis? Maybe yo…
I think it's also useful to know a couple of "stock" examples for the logical indicators that are tripping you up.
For instance, you can rely on "no cats are dogs", "the only kids in class today are boys", "the car will crash unless it is repaired,…
Did you fully BR all of the tests that you've taken already? Make sure you're always doing that. Also, don't shy away from doing retakes! I've always found retakes to be very beneficial. Even though you'll see a retake bump in your scores, the proce…
No, you do not have to use all the premises and you definitely do not want to pick an answer that makes a flawed argument. You are simply looking for an answer that must be true according to the premises. Must be true is the key. There should be no …
Along with everything @DumbHollywoodActor said, I would also say: practice! It takes a lot of hard work to find your groove and there are no shortcuts.
Good question Martin!
You should always try to make inferences and split game boards accordingly, but sometimes the rules do not play well enough together to be able to do so. In this case, for example, the big inference is only that you have to ch…
X can survive Y, as long as Z doesn't occur (/Z). Thus, the reason why /X is obtaining isn't because of Y, but because Z is occurring.
Species (X) can survive environmental change (Y), as long as it's not too rapid (/Z). Thus, the threat to surviv…
This question is very specific in what it is asking you to do, and that is to strengthen Kim's argument by offering a specific defense of it against Lee's criticism. In essence, we are looking for an answer that will weaken Lee's criticism, which wo…
@mysojuli I was being a little facetious when I said to drill PTs because what I really mean is to just take PTs. This definitely doesn't mean to take one every day, but I do believe the best way to get better at the test is to actually take the tes…
