What if you're not improving and have yet to get the swing of ANY of the WSE/PSA questions, even though you've gone over the questions and videos multiple times? #help (Added by Admin)
Sorry to hear that but don't give up. We options to support you. Discussion Forums (study groups); Live Classes (target WSE/PSA questions; guided study groups); and Tutoring.
given how insanely granular you have to go to differentiate C, D, and E, I'm not sure how else you could expect this question to get the last difficulty star. This was max difficulty for sure
Focusing on this one key step is helping me pick the right answer on PSAs, especially on questions like this one: Look for the answer choice that reflects the direction in which the action in the stimulus flows.
I usually do the same with such a long answer choice but just before clicking submit with my AC chosen being C I read it just in case since usually the one I don't read tends to be the correct one. Not this time!
I understand that he is trying to give us a comprehensive understanding of how to work through a question but I would love to see a condensed way of getting to the right answer, perhaps so that we are able to see how to arrive at the correct answer in the limited amount of time we will have on test day.
Totally agree that some of these videos are way too long and maybe even impede my learning a bit. For the You Try lessons at least they also have the link to another explanation video that is like the ones they have for all other practice problems. It's to the right of the button that says what priority the question is to you.

these 4 level questions in PSA are no joke
These questions are so much bs I'm honestly already so fking tired of the lsat. Lol
This made me laugh lol just know that so many others feel the same way. Just push through
I know it's time to take a break when I look at the answer choices and don't even remember seeing the correct one there 🫠
I finally got a level 4 PSA question right! It took me 11:41 but I still did it.
I am so frustrated.. I've gotten so many in a row wrong. Why am I not learning from my mistakes!!!
@katieghart01 Happens to the best of us!! Slow down, take time, maybe switch up what you're studying and come back to this section. You've got this:)
i get these questions right but i dont understand why
@tar x2
language out here like we in the shakespear days
this one was awful

These 4 and 5 level difficulty questions are not it...
I am noticing these answers are just describing the overall event that is occurring in the stimulus
DO NOT OVERTHINK THESE GO WITH YOUR INSTINCT IT HELPS SO MUCH
FINALLY got this one right
I need to learn to trust my gut more. I chose C originally but then BR E.
literally ME!

oh my god I keep getting these wrong ahhhh
i stg if i get another one wrong in a row

This is the only section that has tripped me up so far, it's not intuitive like the other ones are for some reason
I refused to even read option D lmao
LMAOO thats how I am but nine times out of 10 the AC i don’t want to read or I just don’t understand is usually the right one 😹

omg I didn't know they were different videos. I'm definitely going back through my missed 'you try' ones for which explanation video didnt help much
this had me doubting myself for 8 mins
So is there a strategy here? Kind of feel like we were just thrown into this question type.
@iammichaelscott My trick was to manipulate the paragraph into something way more simple to follow.
If "Able to make lifestyle choices" + "See lifestyle acceptance" -> "Easier to live enjoyably"
Look at the second sentence. Mental note that "Choose friends" can -> "See lifestyle acceptance" to jump into our chain above.
Final sentence. If you are in set "/Choose friends" then it follows you are "Nobody"
Quickly skim the answer choices. Keep it simple in my head grammatically.
If you can't choose your friends, then you are nobody. If you're somebody you can choose.
I know that one of many possible ways to "Easier to live enjoyably" is "Choices" + "Acceptance"
"Choose friends" -> "Acceptance"
A. I do not know what nobody can or can't do. Immediately skip this
B. All I know about anybody is they can choose their friends
C. If assumed, grants us a rule about nobody that connects our conclusion and premises
D. No rules for this conditional.
E. Got no rules about what an action making my life easier potentially allows me to do.
Aww man! I was on a role. I got cocky about getting the last question right! I guess this is karma.
I've been getting these questions right, but the time it's taking me to answer them is skyrocketing.
