Point at Issue: Agree or Disagree · ZeSean Ali

Event Series Point at Issue: Agree or Disagree
Logical Reasoning Difficulty: Moderate Point at Issue: Agree or Disagree Pace: Moderate

One of the most atypical question types, Point at Issue questions ask us to pinpoint where two arguments differ or align without getting distracted by other elements in the split stimulus. Learn how should your approach differ when there are two arguments to consider, and how to avoid the red herrings this question type often […]

Sufficient and Necessary Assumptions · ZeSean Ali

Logical Reasoning Difficulty: Moderate Sufficient Assumption Necessary Assumption Pace: Moderate

Sufficient and necessary conditions are some of the most common logical elements encountered in logical reasoning. Easily confused with each other and often unintuitive, they can make for some truly hard SA and NA questions! This class will cover the concepts and strategies that are essential for effectively navigating both question types. Difficulty: 2-5 stars […]

Weaken, Strengthen, and Evaluate · ZeSean Ali

Event Series Weaken, Strengthen, and Evaluate
Weaken Logical Reasoning Difficulty: Moderate Strengthen Evaluate Pace: Moderate

A significant portion of a typical LR section is made up of Weaken, Strengthen, and Evaluate questions. These three closely-related question types all ask us: what would tip the scales for an argument? Sharpen your skills while exploring the important similarities and differences between them! Difficulty: 3-5 Stars Pace: 5-8 Questions

Parallel Reasoning · ZeSean Ali

Event Series Parallel Reasoning
Logical Reasoning Difficulty: Moderate Parallel or Analogy Parallel or Analogy (Flaw) Pace: Moderate

The closely related Parallel Reasoning and Parallel Flaw question types are often regarded as the most difficult and time consuming of the LR types. They don't have to be! This class will cover key concepts and strategies that will help you navigate parallel reasoning with accuracy and confidence. Difficulty: 3-5 Stars Pace: 3-5 questions

Pseudo Sufficient Assumptions · ZeSean Ali

Event Series Pseudo Sufficient Assumptions
Logical Reasoning Difficulty: Moderate Pseudo Sufficient Assumption (Application) Pseudo Sufficient Assumption (Rule) Pace: Moderate

Split into PSAr (find the rule) and PSAa (application) questions, these cousins of Sufficient Assumption questions tend to be less straightforward- and thus more difficult! This class will cover the concepts and strategies that are essential for effectively navigating both variants of this question type. Difficulty: 3-5 stars Pace: 4-8 Questions

Pseudo Sufficient Assumptions · ZeSean Ali

Event Series Pseudo Sufficient Assumptions
Difficulty: Moderate Pseudo Sufficient Assumption (Application) Pseudo Sufficient Assumption (Rule) Pace: Moderate Logical Reasoning

Split into PSAr (find the rule) and PSAa (application) questions, these cousins of Sufficient Assumption questions tend to be less straightforward- and thus more difficult! This class will cover the concepts and strategies that are essential for effectively navigating both variants of this question type. Difficulty: 3-5 stars Pace: 3-5 Questions

This class will cover key concepts and strategies that will help you navigate parallel reasoning with accuracy and confidence. Difficulty: 3-5 Stars Pace: 4-8 questions

Necessary Assumptions · ZeSean Ali

Event Series Necessary Assumption
Logical Reasoning Difficulty: Moderate Necessary Assumption Pace: Moderate

Necessary Assumption questions ask you to find the assumption the argument depends on. This class will teach you how to identify what’s required for the argument to hold up. We'll break down the strategies to spot the essential assumption, so you can tackle these questions quickly and accurately! Difficulty: 2-5 stars Pace: 5-7 Questions

Identifying Principles · ZeSean Ali

Event Series Identifying Principles
Logical Reasoning Principle

A variant of most strongly supported and pseudo-sufficient assumption (find the rule) questions, principle questions ask us to identify a statement that underlies or coheres with the argument presented in the stimulus. Learn to effectively differentiate between irrelevant or contradictory options and the close matches this question subtype demands! Pace: 3-5 Questions Difficulty: 3-5 Stars

Pseudo Sufficient Assumptions · ZeSean Ali

The Flaw Factory · ZeSean Ali

Event Series The Flaw Factory
Logical Reasoning Difficulty: Moderate Flaw or Descriptive Weakening Pace: Moderate

Being able to quickly identify flaws in an argument is one of the most critical skills needed for a wide variety of LR question types. Hone your flaw-spotting ability by working through a set of Flaw questions of varying difficulty!Difficulty: 3-5 starsPace: 4-7 Questions
