Think this question is doable if you focus on the premise-conclusion relationship and not get bogged down in the context. I see only one premise (statement about familiarity) and the conclusion (promising). My initial reaction to the last sentence i…
I like to annotate the test by underlining the conclusion and bracketing each indv. premise, not just the broad sections of support. I leave the ctxt aIone but am aware of it. I then try to understand how the indv premises and conclusion relate to o…
I liked tackling lg first with the lower numbered pts. You might want to then drill specific lr types before moving to full tests or just hop right in (not the biggest believer in spending a ton of time outside full pts on other sections besides lg)…
I think the first step is being confident in your dissection of the argument. Are you then able to see how the parts relate to one another and the support structure? Then you must find what has to be assumed for the arugment to work. I like to think…
Think you are correct. “Should” is normative or prescriptive like “ought”, etc. It would be fallacious to consider analogous or validly infer a normative statement from a non-normative one and vice versa. How can you make a valid value judgement fro…
Make sure you dissect the passages fully and understand how the parts relate to one another. Do two premises indipendently support the conclusion or is there a sub conclusion that supports the conclusion. So imprortant that all the elements are clea…
I woul prioritize lg before the other sections because it seems like ppl tend to see the most variability in their lg success on test day. It’s one thing to mess up an lr problem or two, another to not understand the beginning of a game and miss the…
Think it’s a balance of long and short term happiness for your fam. Waiting a cycle might result in short term loss, but what is the long term gain? Seems like it could be large for both you and your husband. Time flies...
I like to think of an rc passage like a longer, much more convoluted version of an lr passage. Instead of a single point being argued for there may be multiple main points being argued for/against. Either way I think you’re being tested on your unde…
Right on ddromney. What about all the phallic images I've seen J.Y. draw when talking about the support relationship between premises and conclusion?!!! It's like he's obsessed!!! This guys' gotta be stopped!
