Hi guys I have a tip for these questions. Feel free to let me know if it works for you or even if my tip falls short of anything. So after you read the stimulus, identify the conclusion. I like to highlight it if thats your jam too. And then see how the excerpt from the question stem relates to the conclusion.
If you highlight the conclusion and the excerpt is not the conclusion. Congrats. You can cross off every single answer choice that mentions conclusion. Then you will have to decide the excerpts role to the conclusion. Does it go against the conclusion? Does it support the conclusion?
I keep getting the correct answer, then it says I got 0% before blind review. So I go back and pick a different answer, yet my previous answer was the correct choice. This has happened on the past 2 as well. On one of them, I was over time so that makes sense. However, on this one, I was under time by 7 seconds. I'm confused why this keeps happening.
I am not doing good this chapter lolol. NA came easy to me, now this is whooping my ass. I chose B or D, then narrowed it down to B and it was wrong :/
I was stuck between B and D .. initially had my AC as D... during blind review chose B... grrrr I knew it was the P, it being the keyword here. Need to stop second guessing myself.
Lol June! I’m taking my time going through core curriculum and about to start regularly taking prep tests. Definitely planning to give myself options for fall LSATs too. When are you planning on taking it?
#feedback In the analysis of answer choice A, the author states that A, a wrong answer, could be amended to "It is a premise for the claim that water itself should be considered a polluter" to be correct. This does not seem accurate. For, it is merely an implied conclusion that water ought be considered a polluter. Instead, the stimulus' explicit conclusion is that "water itself is among the biggest polluters." Thus, what is integral to the stimulus' conclusion is an element of relativity that is not found in the author's amended answer choice A.
I feel like these questions would be so much simpler if there were some quotation marks to indicate where the excerpt begins and ends, rather than having to like reread and process everything within a sentence 3 or 4 times to perfectly understand.
Obviously this happens over the course of seconds... but seconds count

Can we treat these similarly to MBT/MSS? Seems the same, except its structural now
water contaminants are my jam XD
wainwater wunoff
@Jandro_47 windustrial wischarge...it's powwution
This section is restoring a little hope in me
I agree sometimes the details matter they trip you up because you think it's the correct answer when you half-read it
yaya got another one right !!!:)

@JeromedoesLSATPREP absolute game changer process here – thank you!!
B was so attractive to me, but it's important to remember that an answer choice that is out of scope from the stim's argument is wrong which B was
Bruh I keep getting them wrong initially, then picking the right one on blind review. Ugh.

@ElaineRogers this has happened to me as well!

3 FOR 3 BABY
Wow I'm being humbled so much in this section.

Needed this after the NA lessons....
This kind of confused me. I got D but the excerpt seems more like context than a premise - did anyone else think of it this way?
yes!! but then i realised that the second sentence was part of a causal chain and which would being that the excerpt was the premise
@inadsiwel oh this made so much sense thank you
struuuuuggling with this section i fear
i felt like NA questions were more intuitive to me and now AP questions are nottt coming as naturally.
so interesting to see what people's strengths and weaknesses are in these comment sections!
When are you taking your LSAT? I always see you in the comments section lol we're kinda in sync with the curriculum.
Lol June! I’m taking my time going through core curriculum and about to start regularly taking prep tests. Definitely planning to give myself options for fall LSATs too. When are you planning on taking it?
I’m planning to take it in June also but from core curriculum module to module I know how to feel and gauge if I’m ready
