Identifying the elements is usually the most important part for me, and going back to the quizzes on sufficient assumptions helped with both.
Necessary assumptions are a complete horror show. The answer is often unpredictable. The bridging question…

Question types in LR which commonly use formal logic include: MBT/F, (F)PR, SA, PSA, and NA.
I suppose Flaw could be tossed in there too but formal logic isn't as common within that type as the sort listed a…

When is a good time to introduce practicing the writing section of the exam? Or do you even have to?
So far I have been only doing the timed 4-part preptests to make sure I have those sections ready to go by test day…

Ok. Thanks again. I went through all the different possible gameboards for G1 and K2 and it turns out there are only two possible gameboards like you mentioned. It's either L or N in the rear of Team 1, but the res…

Ok ok. The distinction between solely MBT and MBT with the extra premise of what must be in the rear of T2 makes this clearer. If P is present in the rear on the 23 setup, then it must be true that P is in rear of T2 if G an…
Thanks, I've been using a white noise mp3 on my phone that I ripped from YouTube. Gonna give this a shot.
I usually just put my phone on airplane mode, start the white noise and start the timer. It's been working great these last few weeks.
Sure. @"Cant Get Right" came up with the 80% strategy, which I've bumped up to 90% for a bit more certainty. I think he basically says that when you're 80% sure you've got the right answer, don't bother checking the others. Select it and move on, co…
Work up a daily schedule to follow. This makes you more committed, which you really have to be in order to get a high score and not forget anything you've learned along the way.

Hey nice to see you pop your head in! Sorry to drop that bomb on you in the first LR section of the oldies last night (the one abou…

Is "or else" the inclusive "or"? If I'm interpreting your statements correctly, H could technically also be on line 1 AND 7 at the same time.
"Or else" would indicate to me that H can either be on 1 or 7, but not bot…

How do you approach your second time through a section? Would it be better for me to hone in on 2 or 3 circled questions and absolutely get them right at the expense of not double checking all of the circled questions? Any lig…

Thanks for getting back, Dave. You're always on the ball.
Let’s start with the statistician’s argument. The statistician makes an argument you are almost guaranteed to see on your administration of the exam: the statistician s…

@extramedium Sometimes it's helpful to step away. Just give your brain some space from the problem. It's the same principle as skipping during timed sections: we just don't get it at that moment, but with some time and space u…

If an author cites what someone else says without saying it themselves can that author be said to have said the same thing?
This question makes me think the answer is no, but I was hoping someone could verify that.

There's like 80 people tagged here. How do you keep a BR/Study Group call under wraps with so many people chiming in? I'd like to try but this is making me hesitant
@runningthroughthemountains @jkatz1488
How do you respond when you get stuck on a question that you don't quite understand?
I'll go through a dozen explanations from different people sometimes on various forums. I'll sink 30-45 minutes in to a qu…

Yeah it's in the requirements. Tell them what condition you have and the symptoms.
Also make it sound as bad as possible without lying. I know this goes against LSAT logic, but strong language is helpful here.

Hell no. Time it at 53 if you got 50%. It gets easier as you progress.
Congrats on the accommodations. I know that feeling of relief and the extra time is very helpful. I was put in a classroom by myself too, so hopefully you'll get your own procto…
