I would also recommend reviewing 7Sage Grammar lessons again. To me they were key in gaining speed. We need to be able to parse down complex sentence structure in seconds.The lessons on grammar are key.
I second this^ it …
Yeah I agree @dcdcdcdcdc ! "Or" in English to logic can be pretty ambiguous when we aren't given specifics. Terms like "can" and "may" introduce the idea of neither being an option. In LR if we aren't instructed that one must be chosen, we have to a…
Hi @TheLSAT !
@TheLSAT said: @"nessa.k13.0" correct me if I am wrong, but I believe you're confusing an exclusive or for an inclusive one. The diagram you provided in your response to this thread is a representation of an inclusive or. The "A or…
Hi @"cynthia.wu82" ! Those two statements are not the same thing. If A, then not B is represented as A----->/B ( B----->/A) and A or B, but not both is /A----->B ( /B----->A). This conversation could also help explain why https://classic…
Hi @Euthyphro ! The statement you expressed symbolically could lead us to make an error and translate into English half the inverse of the statement A or B but not both like Sami described above. You can't change the value of variables just to link…
Hey @AllezAllez21 and @RafaelBernard !
Yeah I'm surprised that it's justified to say go to Northeastern vs Upenn or Northwestern, if those schools are in reach, because we don't like an elitist ranking system. I'm not saying everyone needs to go to…
The reasoning above about the T14 being a made-up-prestige-obsession is not at all supported by the data on law school graduate performance though. Yeah, we can debate how arbitrary it is for a school to be ranked 14 vs 16, but I wouldn't extrapolat…

PT 17.3.4
Yes! This question definitely gets at that issue! I think it's a great example actually and is why when you have more questions that require you to find the one that does something most to an argument, the difficulty shifts more towards …
@TheoryandPractice
There are a few ways I've noticed how shifts in language appears differently. Some of these changes are easier to deal with than others and you can classify/consider them in different ways. I decided to not do examples for every…
I would choose the highest ranked school I get into unless there is another school that has a program, connection, or higher placement rate for the kind of place that I'd want to work at. I also think there are quite a few things to consider such a…
Hey @TheoryandPractice ! I haven't forgotten I just really want to think about this and methodically list out all the ways I've noticed the above idea as well as provide you with specific examples (that don't ruin test questions). I'll post that soo…

I used to have a very precise pre-phrase and looked for certain wordings. They works alright in PTS before 60s. They began to backfire on me on PTs after 60s.
This is so true. In the recent PTs I've noticed I have to…
Hi @extramedium ! If you have a game where the game pieces (like H) are to be placed once then this rule is an exclusive or (not both) rule. H will either be on line 1 or else H will be on line 7 (not both if the the letters are assembled once). @j…
If you start PTing weekly now, just be careful to save some tests so you don't burn them all. Also try to take the more recent tests closer to the test date and practice building upon your understanding of the fundamentals with the older PTs first.
