The contrapositive of P --->(~M--->B) is ~B---> M or ~P
Why did I get that? I think the best way to start is to first simplify the statement P --->(~M--->B) before figuring out the contrapositive. To do that, take the embedded phras…
Hi @"Tina Cho" Here's my process for point of disagreement questions
1. Understand the conclusion and the premises for each person. Do not move on until you do because you can be punished by tougher questions for not doing this.
2. If I can, pre-p…
The webinars are a great place to start collecting general info about studying long term for the test as well as what to do and what not to do. https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/
David's Tips on Doing it Right and Allison's webinars are really hel…
I'm not sure how that works, but you can contact LSAC about that by calling or emailing to ask and find out. http://www.lsac.org/jd/lsat/accommodated-testing
Gotcha @dml277 @BinghamtonDave haha @"Alex Divine"
@ScooterMinion yeah the schedule is a SUPER rough draft, aka it'll 100% change, it as in don't get attached to it at all. I'll make the pep rally that last week OR if JY does another PT BR session…
Hey @"Alex Divine" if we started in the 30s we'll have to cut from the 70s or from a break. Check out the schedule so far. Since the PTs in the 30s are from the 7Sage "easiest test prep set" we could take them on our own. If enough people want to cu…

If the necessary condition is satisfied, then the rule becomes obsolete because the sufficient condition can or cannot occur.
Yeah, the sufficient condition can or cannot occur so the rule falls away.
Hi @generationhar embedded conditionals usually occur when a conditional statement is inserted as part of a sufficient or necessary condition. An example of that is: If cats like dogs then my terrier will not bite the kitten unless it is angry. This…

LSAT miracles do not happen; you'll ultimately score the score you've earned.
This is so true. If you know you are not ready, do not take the test. Save yourself from making the same mistakes that some of us have while rushin…

I'm pretty sure this one will be recorded; too epic not to be.
Yeah, I hope this is recorded as well! I'm going to have to designate different colors sections for each of the Four Horsemen and woman of the apocalypse. Can't wa…
You are welcome @jjoushlyn Yeah it's not so much that you are hunting down all those things but that you read passages and stimuli and notice how an argument is or isn't valid or that you'll notice type of reasoning being used. It is good to look fo…
Interesting--I'm wondering if beyond sanity, character and fitness type issues, do admissions committees really care? I'm thinking that they don't besides general rules of interview etiquette and decency (if you are applying to devoutly religious la…
Hi @jjoushlyn !
Once you learn the rules of lawgic then you use your new knowledge to inform your prep as you move along in the core curriculum. It's great that the cc already has the lessons grouped for you and then reinforces your learning by add…
You are welcome! I wouldn't rely on how you feel about an answer especially if you haven't sharpened your instincts with practice. I would be rigorous in my prep and focus on knowing what must be true, what argument part the question addresses or th…
Hi @LSATaker ! One of the things that makes RC difficult for people to improve is that the test rewards people who are able to synthesize the main points of each paragraph and parse out many strands of reasoning within an entire passage. Additionall…
