#feedback I feel like these easier questions should be placed at the front of the lesson so the relationship between stimulus and correct answers becomes apparent from early on. Personally I know I would have benefited from this.
As soon as I read D, I knew it was the right answer but took a little longer to answer because it was a little suspicious that I spotted the answer right away. I need to be more confident when it comes to the answer I'm choosing. That definitely stresses me out.
I relate to this! Drilling has helped me a lot with this. I try the questions timed and aim to answer them accurately as fast as possible, and then I take my time with blind review & go over my approach in more detail, reread, etc.. When I see that I'm getting questions correct under timed conditions, then it boosts my confidence and reinforces the most important strategies/approaches I should be taking when tackling questions. This way, I'm habitually practicing and positively reinforcing taking the most efficient approach/strategy when tackling questions, and I end up spending less time second guessing, etc. during timed conditions.
I've now reached the point in my studying where I've been hoodwinked by so many trap answers that I am now second-guessing no-brainer questions like this lol
You actually did answer the question in a perfect amount of time. The LSAT logic reasoning section can have a maximum of 26 questions and you have 35 minutes to complete it which means you should be spending around 1:20 per question. If you get below 1:20 you did a good job no matter what 7Sage tries to tell you :)
Keep going you got it, but remember! You want to bank time on easier questions like this one so you can spend maybe 2 minutes on harder questions, still this was good time.
I don’t think I have ever chosen an answer this fast and being correct. Before I read the answer choices I was already looking for these answer. It would be awesome that all questions would have been this easy because I have been struggling with these section.
does anyone else feel like the time expectations are unrealistic? i feel like i have to skim the stim and the questions rather than properly read them if i want to meet the time restraints...this question was super easy and once i read the right answer i chose it barely glancing at the other options and still was 11 seconds over...anyone else feeling like this?
I picked B and when I read it I noticed that it was talking about highways that have the highest rate of fatal accidents, rather than lowest fatal accident rates but the way I thought about it was kind of in the inverse of what the stim is saying.
For example:
overcrowded --> low fatal accident rate
less crowded --> high fatal accident rate
In my mind, it makes sense for someone to have the ability to drive faster on the highway if there are less cars in the way crowding up space, therefore, if traffic is moderate it increases the likelihood that someone is driving a faster speed and would get into a fatal accident.
I also understand here that driving faster is a key caveat here, but I really really think having the SPACE to actually speed makes a difference here too.
That to say, I got this wrong but I only did not pick D because I thought it was a trick coming off of the last lesson. :((
only 1 star but these questions again feel like detective mode. "recent study. highways with most traffic also have most congestion. also have lowest rate of fatal traffic accidents. accidents caused by car collisions. negligence? due to one driver? both? weather conditions? speed perhaps? higher speeds mean less time allowed to react. what if they were late to their LSATs? what if they didn't see the Tesla because they were up last night studying, nervous, not getting a good night's sleep? fatigue that could cause an accident."
The only thing that tripped me up about this one was the fact that the answer I chose (which was correct but I wavered lol) didn't have information that was presented in the stimulus.
I had the same suspicion but one thing I have to remind myself that I have heard from both JY and my tutor is that an answer will not always be Ideal.
If it makes sense don't completely discount it, but look upon the other questions and test if those answer choices could be right. I was left with A and D but I had to ask myself amongst the two, which one is the most likely to answer. Doesnt have to be exact, but will answer it.

I don't even care that this question was obnoxiously easy. I needed that.
real

@abjaved00 I personally think that having the harder ones first makes things so much easier.
You get trained to understand hard concepts at first and when you get something like this you can figure it out in seconds.
If I had gotten this wrong, I would probably switch to studying for the MCAT
Mr. fat cat!!!!
lol im not gonna lie this comment was perfect timing because this section has me going through it
if i had gotten this wrong, i woulda told my parents that the lsat and law school wasn't for me
fr, I told myself before clicking the check mark that if this is wrong... then f the LSAT

If only every question were like this . . .
@DeanSequeira no fr
I've now reached the point in my studying where I've been hoodwinked by so many trap answers that I am now second-guessing no-brainer questions like this lol
got this right but it was so easy that i felt there was a trap in this answer some how lol
Answered in 38 seconds and STILL slower than the target time. You couldn't let me have this one?

TY for the kind words :)

here the assumption is that one cannot travel fast on a congested road.

@hebakalises That comes down to just improving reading comprehension ultimately.
yay! an extremely easy one finally
no need to watch the video or read the explanation for this one!
I can’t believe it took me only 30 seconds to find the right answer. I wish I would understand the rest of the questions like this.

if only all the questions on the lsat were like this :/
@Rabee Real!
.
Yea this one was really easy
I picked D first and then changed it to A at the last min 😭 need to trust my gut
Easiest question in 7Sage History
only 1 star but these questions again feel like detective mode.

I don't know why the word "serious" in AC (D) had me suspicious.
I had the same suspicion but one thing I have to remind myself that I have heard from both JY and my tutor is that an answer will not always be Ideal.

Got it. Thank you lots!!
I think the answer is rather ideal because the stimulus specifically mentions fatal accidents
Easy question (-00:11)
