i'm not understanding why E is wrong. I diagrammed it the same as in the video, but if we take the contrapositive of that, doesn't it match the missing bridge? #help
I picked C and its pretty clear why its correct. I think what's confusing about B is that it would work if we assume that the fact that you received an apology means that you are owed one. Because saying "neither person is owed an apology unless both are" is equivalent to saying that if "one person is owed an apology, then both are". So if the physician is owed an apology, then so is the counselor.
Isn't Hagerle capable of apologizing sincerely to the counselor since they did it to the physician? or is that too big of an assumption? If you have demonstrated that you can sincerely apologize to one person, you are most certainly capable of doing it to another. On the other hand, I can see that maybe Hagerle doesn't genuinely feel sorry towards the counselor but does feel sorry towards the physician... which would make his apology towards the counselor insincere. I think I get it.
For some of us this is easy, and for others it s a little bit harder keep on studying, we are all in this together. Focus and keep on going if we study hard enough all of this will become easier.
picked C initially then talked myself into E in BR. i'm really struggling with why E doesn't work.
it seems to me that the rule laid out in E fits the counselor's argument really well – what am i i missing? i get that the conditional logic when laid out doesn't agree but intuitively it's not making any sense to me. any help is appreciated 🙏🏼
I think its making it so difficult to answer these questions is because I've wired my brain to make difficult assumptions and sometimes the most obvious answer choices in other LR questions are the wrong answers. But for this kind of question, simply underlining the 'rules' and looking for the answer that follows those rules makes sense even if it does seem obvious.
heads up - seems obvious - but some of these questions are really quick to grasp for some people but others struggle a little more so please don't feel discouraged in the comments of these lessons if you find it challenging. There is nothing you can't learn, if it hard today it will be easier tomorrow!
I had C chosen for most of my time then I tried applying C and thought that someone would have had to be apologized to before the physician - I crossed it off. I was caught up on the end of C because it only made sense to me in the application of the counselor NOT the physician. But I'm realizing the rule doesn’t have to be universal or widely accepted. It could be just the counselors rule/perspective. Without that realization I could defend D to my grave (that shows how well I’m doing studying). E is attractive but in the negative

Can somebody map out the Lawgic for answer choice B, as well its contrapositive? For some reason I can't seem to figure out the right form.
same lie 2 diff -> (\both owed -> neither owed)
Now how can I contrapose this?
\(\both owed -> neither owed) -> same lie 2 diff
For one, how can I take the contrapositive of a grouped/embedded conditional?
Two, are there any lessons on sufficient embedded conditionals? Can I replace the arrow in the embedded sufficient condition with an "AND"?
I have noticed that it seems like a paraphrase of restatement of the stimulus, is there any validity to this?
Maybe not the most difficult to get right, but the dense language is definitely a time sink
C was written by a potato trying to finish a 1,000 word count essay.

I'm getting these right but it takes me like 2 minutes to like understand

I chose c intially but in blind review I thought it but be E...idk they sound similar
I need to work on reading the answer choices more thoroughly... Definitely thought C said just "someone" not "someone else"

I think I love this section. If this was the entire LSAT, I would be going to Harvard BUT bc it's not we're sticking with a T4
Is it fair to assume that if AC C wasn't available AC B would be the best option, because its asking which one MOST helps justify?

HOW IS THIS ONLY A 2/5.
I was going back and forth between B and C, happy I chose C
I understand why C is the ideal option, but would it be also be right to say there is no evidence that B is wrong?
I had C chosen for most of my time then I tried applying C and thought that someone would have had to be apologized to before the physician - I crossed it off. I was caught up on the end of C because it only made sense to me in the application of the counselor NOT the physician. But I'm realizing the rule doesn’t have to be universal or widely accepted.

im getting the right answers but im too slow. I wonder how I can speed up
