Is A wrong because Skylar doesn't really talk about mental maturity? Skylar just talks about mental activity which is different from mental maturity, right?
I totally read the word "objection" as the word "objective" instead and was so confused for the entire question and answer set... highly recommend not doing that lol.
I feel like the title of the question gave the answer away for me. The minute I read "Teaching Chess" and the question stem, I felt like I knew it was about whether or not we should teach chess
advise: the key was when Sklar says "My objection to teaching chess to children..." directly gives us the answer that their disagreement is not about the reasoning behind their arguments per say, but wether we should be teaching chess to children at all.
Alright look the first go around it took some time (like 19 sec over) but that's because ya boi was analyzing all the answers. On the exam we don't doubt ourselves frfr
I got this question right, so I understand it is the best answer out of the bunch, but I'm confused on how Sklar saying she has an objection to teaching chess in school means that she explicitly stated it should not be taught. I can have an objection to something but that doesn't necessarily mean I think it should be outlawed, correct?
I have an objection to math - I think it's boring, but I still think it should be taught.
I had circled D first and talked my way out of it because it didn't match in my mind the "ideal" answer choice since it needed an assumption on Talbert's part despite the contradiction for Sklar.
Anyone else get really hung up on the name Sklar? I kept thinking he was mispronouncing Skylar. But after doing the question and the entire lesson it finally hit me that Sklar and Talbert are both last names. #ADHD

Struggling so much with timing. Easily a minute over, and I knew the correct answer immediately. This one felt too good to be true.
yayay got it right!
it literally says 'my objection to teaching chess'. That feels like sklar is explicitly stating what the disagreement is about.
Is that right or wrong to take that as explicitly pointing to what the disagreement is about??

LETS GO
Glad I didn't second guess my answer

I knew the answer choice was D but i kept talking myself out of it!!!
I'm constantly over the target time. Please share some tips for improvement?
I don't think the Fact v. Belief. v Knowledge link is working? Wondering if the info can be found elsewhere (if so, please signpost!)
i confused mental maturity with mental activity thinking that they had just reworded it in the answer choices

I been getting PAI questions correct but not MSS questions lol
I'm gathering that perhaps the most difficult part of the LSAT is knowing when to make inferences vs. knowing when to avoid traps set by inferences.

I was on the fence with C and D and I should have just gone with my gut.

Bias!
not sure if it's my computer, but the question is glitching. I literally can't read it.
I got A. But now I understand why my answer was wrong...
Are societal and social value the same thing? They were used interchangably in the explanation

Got it right in 22 seconds and thought I was really getting it. Then I saw it scored a 1/5 on the hardness scale….ofc
But Talbert doesn't mention teaching
