It is a conditional indicator, you just have to know what conditional statement it…
Yes, that is one of the most common MBT question stems.
Which of the following logically follows?
Which of the following can be inferred?
Which of the following is an inference that can be properly drawn?
Which of the following must be true?

Sounds good. I did not know that when we have "cannot" whatever that phrase is under automatically goes to "negate, necessary," and I did not know that when we have "unless" whatever that phrase has goes automatically to …

Hi,
I have a question about how Lawgic is drawn out for LSAT 21 Section 2 Question 12 December 1996 test.
The line in the logical reasoning stimulus goes as, “Unless these techniques are implemented, erosion of pr…
I don't think E can be considered a correct answer unless they were to both eliminate choice D and replace it with an answer choice that in no way speaks to the distance between Phobos and Mars.
The strongest answer is applied in isolation from…
It's implied that they are arguing against irradiation of food. There is no stated conclusion, but you don't need one to answer this question. Even if you were to assume a less supported conclusion the answer would still be the same.
The thing people leave out when they say games is the easiest most reliable score increase, etc. is that it will never feel like it. Also note that that doesn't mean you will be knocking out -0s by June either. It's "easy" because literally all you…
You should be wary of prescriptive/descriptive language mismatches, but that doesn't mean they are AC killers. Same with "assumption" in an AP answer, or latent conditional statements in ACs. You should sense a disturbance in the force, but that doe…
Sentence 2: "If and only if the LF capacity is exceeded does L escape." = If LF cap is exceeded L escapes + L escapes only if LF cap is exceeded.
Gives you: Exceeded ←→ Escape = Exceeded → Escape + Escape → Exceeded
The part we're worried about he…

Thank you. I was confused by the fact that it said August was not the LSAT-Flex anymore, but they would be offering an online administration through 2022.
Flex is the 3 section test... the 3 section + 1 experimental was jus…

But contradiction of all (B are A) is (not A not B )
That's a contrapositive, which is the logical equivalent, not a negation.
A negation would be B some /A... despite your claim that all bananas are made of atoms, here is …
Without more detail, for low 160s, I'd make sure you are solid on the CC fundamentals, games, and are comfortable with your timing/skipping. You don't necessarily ave to do all of the CC problem sets. They get incrementally harder, so if you find yo…
I think it's just a factor to consider. If you are considering relying on this as a primary strategy, that kind of indicates (just making a big assumption here) that your current level is such that hard game or passage with more questions is not som…
Chess is the most appropriate analogy to reporting on political campaigns.
If you can't see the negation right away sometimes it helps to just tack on an "It is not the case that..." in front of the target statement.
It is not the case that ch…
There are 3 courses of action: M, L, or N.
She can vote for someone who disagrees with her, if she disagrees with the others on even more issues.
So in the world in which she disagrees with a candidate (note, M is not part of this world):

"Lack of evidence is not evidence of lacking," or an appeal from/to ignorance.
This is where one claims a proposition is true because it has not been proven false or a proposition is false because it has not been proven true.
In other words, you c…
B: Consultants help executives make better decisions. So they are worth the fees.
F: No, consultants are hired to avoid responsibility. The more cost, the more they can be blamed.
Here in order to accomplish the task given in the stem you could ei…
I wouldn't rely on any predictors until upcoming medians are fed in. They were already only rough guidelines based on a narrow range of metrics at best.
They surveyed all age groups. "R-Bar Beans are considered the best of all brands among all age groups." They're the best across the board... B tells you that there was some variance in the margin amongst age groups.
3+ PTs is way too much IMO. A PT is data collection. What matters is what you do with the data... the work between PTs . There is no shortage of people who are successful doing 1 PT a week.
"You are wrong..." is not the same as "the claim is wrong," taken as "the claim is factually incorrect" just as, "the conclusion doesn't follow" isn't the same as, "the conclusion is false."
You could be wrong to make the claim because the claim is…

We don't attack premises. They are accepted as true. Our workspace is the premise to conclusion relationship.
