Flawed premise, because eliminating four wrong answers does not automatically give you the correct answer. You can eliminate the four wrong answers AND eliminate the correct answer, and you have still eliminated the four wrong answers but will get the question wrong because you have also eliminated the correct one. So, if you accidentally eliminate the correct answer you can get the question wrong while only making one mistake. Should say: eliminate the four wrong answers and ONLY the four wrong answers.
"recognize correct answer,-----> get question right" i think the necessary assumption here is that you SELECT the answer you recognize as correct. but this isnt always the case. LSAT questions have a sneaky way of introducing incredulity into ones own tuitions via clever trap answers.
"eliminate 4 answers ------> get question correct" same thing here.
Recognize correct answer OR process of elimination → Get answer correct
/Get answer correct → /Recognize correct answer AND /process of elimination
If we don't get the answer correct, that means we didn't recognize the correct answer by itself AND we didn't arrive at the correct answer through the process of eliminating the 4 incorrect answers.

SIR YES SIR 🫡
wait but shouldn't it be:
get question correct--> recognize right answer
get question correct--> eliminate four wrong answers
because these statements imply that these are the ONLY two paths to getting the question correct.
oop- was I silent or silenced?

Such a good example to help put the concept of why Morgan's law makes sense into perspective... its stuff like this that makes me not hate studying.
recognize correct answer OR eliminate 4 incorrect answer choices → Get question correct
Contrapositive:
Get question wrong → Failed to recognize correct answer AND failed to eliminate 4 incorrect answer choices
A sermon worth listening to
