i got it right, but in my notes i wrote that it's ok to not be economically successful; as long as you protect liberties, you're successful. so i feel like the answer i chose (c) was the strongest but has nothing to do with guaranteeing overall success, as the present administration protected individual liberties anyways?
A question about the general definition of "may" on the LSAT: does it always mean "probable", and so anytime that it is used in a conditional, it renders it invalid? When I read the stimulus, I took it to mean as "allowed" e.g. "you may go".
I feel that the instructor for RC does a great job, but whoever is handling the LR stuff really falls short. Everything seems overly complicated and entirely dependent on these visual diagrams.
The whole idea behind LSAC eliminating Logic Games was that visually impaired test takers were at a disadvantage. I can't imagine that any visually impaired student who pays for 7Sage would benefit from this kind of analysis and breakdown. It's too geared towards a specific learning style.
I'm a little bit confused. When it comes to "and/ or" in the sufficient condition side only one of the sufficient conditions has to be met? But when it comes to necessary conditions, both conditions have to be met for "and"?
That's so wack. I didn't choose C cause it doesn't explicitly say that if the present administration would be economically successful IN ADDITION to protecting personal liberties it would be an overall success. C leaves room for the possibility that satisfying the economically successful condition could be satisfied independently of the individual liberties condition.
#feedback Dumb wack. Maybe I'm a clown or I'm just trying too hard.
I noticed that I tend to kick things up into the domain automatically without even noticing. Are there ever times on MBT questions where selecting the correct answer choice depends on noticing that something has been improperly kicked up to the domain?
I'm wondering if I should try to pay more attention to my automatic processing involving the domain or if that's a waste or time/energy.
Why can't we diagram the second sentence as CE + OS --> PILS since we know that if a political administration fails to protect the environment, the only way for it to become successful is to protect individual liberties?
Hey just leaving a tip that works for me just in case it would help someone else:
I take all my notes digitally, and to still map out the questions without taking paper out, I use Microsoft Paint and do some squiggles in Lawgic and found it helpful
I found that the second premise was effectively made a dormant conditional by the third premise (the third premise stated that the situation the second premise could be relevant in [fails to protect environment & doesn't protect individual liberties] was not the case), and that made the second premise superfluous. You could make the inference with just the first and last premise.
A lot of my time was wasted searching for an AC that said "the administration would be successful" because I was so confident in that being the only right answer 😞

took me twice the time but i got it right
Got it right upon BR
41 seconds baby!! :)
It’s hard to rely on visual concepts because it takes more time to write it down. I hope I can get faster at this by just picturing it in my head
It took me 8 minutes to get this into lawgic and then i got it right. So I still have some ways to go
i was confused between A and C. Got it right in BR. My god, i am struggling.
Conditional logic is the bane of my existence. I’m so bad at it.

I got the question right, but in my blind review, I chose A. Can anyone explain why C is correct and not A.
I am getting all these questions right!!! my timing is off but I feel confident!
I am getting questions right, but my timing is off.
Do you guys watch the videos even though you are confident in your answer and you got it right or should I just not waste my time?

I had the correct answer and switched it.
I got it right, I wish i could translate faster so i could hit the target time.

On the actual test, will we have time to actually write down the lawgics and arrows, or do we just have to mentally think about them?

Read this way to fast smh

My lawgic:
E + P --> S and ~C + P --> S
With the president administration being ~C + P
