bro your a menace lol. But seriously can you imagine? I do believe in some countries without naming them, their kids actually can do this which is crazy
Just wanna say, I know it's an unpopular opinion but I appreciate not being able to see the answer choices/full question before the video or all at once. For me, when I do the question first, it clouds my concentration. During the explanation, I'm thinking "affirm my right answer" or "explain why I got it wrong" while ignoring the rest of the answer choices, grammar parsing, traps choices, etc. While doing the question before can be helpful of course, I lose sight of the lesson itself and dissecting each answer choice carefully.
I appreciate that the lessons almost force the analysis of the entire thing. It helps build my foundational skills and thinking process. When I do get to answer on my own, I find myself using the lesson strategies and thought processes more naturally. I like the new format. I also really like that it takes time to review older concepts.
If I really want to "try on my own", I read the question and stimulus first and at best try and predict or anticipate the answer choice. If not, I let Sir JY lead me through. Hope that helps some perspective shifts.
I feel just thinking about the question logically is easier than trying to put the stimulus into Lawgic. I still enjoy the explanation of each answer to see why the wrong answers are wrong!
@VanceKatzfey I think you are supposed to use your own reasoning ability anyway. The Lawgic is just a framework when youre stuck or can't map correctly.
I feel like I keep getting the must be true question wrong because for some of the Q's, they all seem logical. Any tips on how to limit this thought and reasoning while approaching MBT questions?
For this one i got into the mind of the speaker- A, C, and E are all the opposite of what the parent is trying to argue. Those statements are true of the "antagonist" of the parent's issue (the education system). Even then, the answers are all too strong to even write them off as actual beliefs of the parent's perceived antagonist (it could just be a dramatic take of the education system by her own POV). We don't know the actual state of competitiveness in this World of the Parent. B- this could or could not be true. We don't know if the developmental issues are being addressed in some schools or not. Narrowing down into D- we know for sure that the Parent says the Narrow issue of "rigorous curricula" is not meeting developmental needs.
It helps to remember that you are only supposed to answer based on all the info they give you in the stimulus. You should immediately suss out answers that try to explain things and give you info that is new.
I really think I would have gotten this correct, but only because of the subject. It seemed clear to me that she is speaking about curricula rather than anything to do with the nation or high schoolers. Is this a bad approach?
We are not getting opportunity to solve some of these questions bc it shows answer first before showing all options without. Any way quick view can be added for these questions? #feedback #help
I'm afraid, we do not currently have an option for you to view the question before J.Y. completes them. However, I have passed your feedback on to my team and we are currently looking into the possibility of implementing a feature to allow you to view the questions before J.Y. completes them.
Please let me know if you have any other questions, I am happy to assist you.
I completely agree with Jas. Could you not just add a PDF photo of the question before or under the video? Further, you could add the photo before the video commences, however you would need to re-upload and export all of the content. Please note, that not having the full questions completely hinders our ability to intake the content. This was a big oversight.
I understand your desire to try these questions yourself first. But these are "Lessons" for a reason: they introduce a new concept. You'll see that following these "Lessons" are many LR questions where you are asked to apply what you learn here. In other words, that's where I want you to try the question first yourself.
unpopular opinion but I don't think the video "lessons" work for me unfortunately. I think I learn from trial and error not just listening them go through the answers one by one. I get distracted very easily. I don't like how the video lessons at least do not give us an opportunity to try the questions on our own first and gain an understanding that way.
@VanessaPonce They have a feature next to the comment button that shows you the question. While it doesn't allow you to highlight and answer it interactively, you can still go through the question, and there are analytics to explain it as well .
I was a bit confused about how we make the jump to the implicaiton that rigrous curcciulm does't address development neeeds. I think one way to think about is the word "Only" in
Rigrous curriculum --> short term gains
If the only good thing a curriculum does is produce short-term gains, then we know for an absolute fact what it is not doing. It is definitively not addressing special developmental needs. The word "only" locks the door and prevents it from doing anything else.
By limiting its benefits to just "short-term gains," the author implies that it fails the necessary condition.
Correct me anyone if you think this may be the wrong logic?
Wait using the show question button really does help and trying to answer it before. I've really noticed that the right answer most of the time upon close reading differs entirely from the other four answers. I've noticed that three answers will be totally wrong. Then one answer could sound like the right answer but upon close reading as Jp said it adds extra concepts and do so randomly.
When he revealed the first three answer choices and why they were wrong - I knew they were wrong, but off the assumption that the 'parent' didn't agree, and (a), (c), (e), all agree with the idea. However, it seems he sometime uses different strategies than me when eliminating wrong answer choices.
Anyone else think it would've been easier to explain it by saying what the author is arguing? I got lost with all the "must be true" and "competition"... my brain understands it better by thinking, "What is the author's implicit opinion? Oh, he's against harsh curricula" and there's only one choice that matches that

im cooked omg
me af
second this.
same ugh!!!
real
@sidneysinger580 so real
My god, after getting the ast three questions wrong, it feels good knowing i got this question right.
@AnthonyRojas last three were all 5 stars this is like 2....
No need to bring anyone down. We are all here to improve.
you must be fun at parties...
I'm laughing at the 6 year olds learning calculus hahah
bro your a menace lol. But seriously can you imagine? I do believe in some countries without naming them, their kids actually can do this which is crazy
you're. Sorry

@VanceKatzfey This is so true! Lawgic is time consuming and leads to over analysis
@VanceKatzfey seriously this! sometimes it feels so overcomplicated
@VanceKatzfey I think you are supposed to use your own reasoning ability anyway. The Lawgic is just a framework when youre stuck or can't map correctly.
@VanceKatzfey I think you just need to skim the answer choices a bit to see if parsing the correct answer requires a logic chain or not.
@VanceKatzfey I swear
Everytime I try to put something into Lawgic i just get more confused and overthink my answers
Am I the only one who gets confused with the "handwriting"? I feel like it has got worse as the weeks go on.

Is this not just a regular inference question, it doenst feel like an MBT at all
Is drawing out lawgic reserved for just conditional and causal logic?
I really think I would have gotten this correct, but only because of the subject. It seemed clear to me that she is speaking about curricula rather than anything to do with the nation or high schoolers. Is this a bad approach?
The three first choices you mentioned, would you define those as assumptions to the argument that we cannot make? that is how i classified them
I agree, those options assume too much.

Hi there,

The fact that they called it primary school and secondary school did NOT help
@elchapin LOLLLL

If I understand the question at first and get it right, is it okay to move on or should I still be watching the explanation videos?
@bkayc generally, if i'm super confident on why it's right, i don't watch the vid. but if i'm unsure AT ALL, i watch it
I DEFINITELY would have fallen for (C)
@RyanAlexander I did fall for C for not analyzing the stimulus.
so here is how I drew out the logic for this.
Young children curriculum (YCC)--> developmentally supportive
YCC--> DevS
we dont know what is the proper young children's curriculum but we can infer from the next sentance that it is NOT Rigoros curriculum. (/RC) \.
I substitute that in as we now how more specifics
/RC--> DevS
and that most closely aligns with answer choice

finally getting them right after the last few cooked me
I feel like I missed something when he keeps saying group two or group three - what lessons are those??
i got the panthers one, coffeehouse, and this one right! after not doing so good at most of the mc drills this is giving me hope :)
When he revealed the first three answer choices and why they were wrong - I knew they were wrong, but off the assumption that the 'parent' didn't agree, and (a), (c), (e), all agree with the idea. However, it seems he sometime uses different strategies than me when eliminating wrong answer choices.

So does properly inferred means must be true?
@Hanifa Yes
