This question feels intentional for the LSAT journey lol my confidence ebbs and flows on the daily based off the skill-building. At any rate, got it right and within time so we're still in the game!
Don't you hate when you work through the problem and arrive at the correct answer, but then you talk yourself out of it by overthinking and then selecting the wrong answer...that was me. I knew it was B, however I settled on E by overthinking.
are there any lessons that directly just go over abstracting arguments/common patterns to recognize? i know various questions are analyzed this way and some patterns are mentioned in the valid formal logic inferences section but i'd love to just straight see all of the most common argument forms alltogether in a list.
#feedback. It is very annoying when, every time I pause the video, the words disappear. Sometimes I need to stop the video and read for myself the diagram, and I can't when it's gone....
I start off almost every question panicking because I have no idea what the right answer is or how to find it. Then I think for a few minutes and somehow stumble on the right answer like magic. At some point I need to work on speed, but it's at least motivating to see these questions can be solved. What helps is reading the stem first. I know some people say to always read the stimulus first, but I find it helpful to read the stem and identify the question type first so I'll know what I'll be doing as I read the stimulus. I read it once quickly for content and ideas, then a second time to organize the information into conclusion and premises using the highlighter. I go back and underline important words that might be tricky. I think about what I need the right answer to do based on the question type, then review the choices. A combination of POE and knowing what I want help me get to the right place
So, when a conditional statement is followed by an "even if", do we always kick that front part of the sentence into the domain? Please help, the phrase "even if" gets me confused if I messed up my lawgic, then my chances for the correct answers usually diminish.

Overthought the hell out of this one between B and D and ended up with D as a result :(
Late night studying after a full day of work but happy to get this right

YESSSS I got it

Yay.
1st question i got right in this unit in like 6 or 7(no pun intended) questions
are there any lessons that directly just go over abstracting arguments/common patterns to recognize? i know various questions are analyzed this way and some patterns are mentioned in the valid formal logic inferences section but i'd love to just straight see all of the most common argument forms alltogether in a list.
Got this one correct, life is worth living again
I really liked the start of this video. Found it very informative and easy to follow. More explanations like this please!

I CANNOT GET A SINGLE ONE OF THESE RIGHT.
does this mean that SA questions are a subset of strengthen?
Staring at this question has a negative causal effect on my self confidence
i literally dialed it down to B and D and chose the wrong answer WHY
Target time 59 seconds is crazy
#feedback. It is very annoying when, every time I pause the video, the words disappear. Sometimes I need to stop the video and read for myself the diagram, and I can't when it's gone....
here's my example
being sexy is an objective
acting like you have big muscles causes you to have big muscles, which causes you to be sexy.
you should be acting like you have big muscles.
YEAHHHHH BABYYYYY take me back to strengthen q's where I belong

I don't understand how we chose "one should at confident" as the conclusion. I am having trouble with these conditional conclusions. Any tips?
Is it right to say that the prescriptive statement in a descriptive/prescriptive stimulus is always the conclusion?? #feedback
I wonder if genuine or pretend self confidence helped me with this one....
Finally got one right after getting all of the questions in this section wrong.. chat we are so back
This one its too real for all of us pretending to be lawyers
So, when a conditional statement is followed by an "even if", do we always kick that front part of the sentence into the domain? Please help, the phrase "even if" gets me confused if I messed up my lawgic, then my chances for the correct answers usually diminish.
