Questions of the resolve, reconcile, and explain type ask us to understand the logical gap between elements of the stimulus- and what’s required to bridge it. Join 7Sage instructor Alex Jacobs for an exploration of the strategies best applied to RRE questions!
Did you know that 7Sage tutors didn't start out as bona fide LSAT superhumans? The road to LSAT mastery is paved with many wrong answers. Each week a guest tutor (hosted by Alex) will revisit questions they got wrong while studying for their own LSAT way back when. Test your skills against the guest's past attempts, and gain valuable insights as they share how their strategies and approaches have evolved over time.
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 features!
Can an hour of class cover 10 questions effectively? This class will pare each question down to the essentials. Learn to prioritize more efficiently, and move with purpose in your approach to LR!
Conditional reasoning on the LSAT runs far deeper than the basic ‘if A then B’ structure! Learn to navigate the most complex conditional statements the test will throw at you with Kevin Lin.
Macro-level strategies are a critical yet often neglected set of LSAT skills. When engaging with the test, you should always have a plan! This class focuses on the broader strategies to rely on for individual LR question types. Learn to quickly switch approaches throughout a section with confidence as different question types come up, and how to efficiently spot questions that present an exception to the usual case.
Being able to quickly identify the assumptions an argument's author makes is one of the most vital LSAT skills. Which are critical to the argument, and which are unimportant? Are they always invalid? This class will explore the space between the lines, home to assumptions of every kind.
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.
With a double portion of LR guaranteed every test, the Logical Reasoning section is more important than ever! Mondays through Wednesdays will feature questions of average difficulty, while Thursdays and Fridays will feature the most challenging questions the test has to offer.
