There is a typo in the written explanation "Answer choice C":
The explanation doesn't match the question provided:
C: If a university class involves extensive lab work, the class will be conducted in a laboratory; otherwise, it will be conducted in a normal classroom. Thus, if a university class is conducted in a normal classroom, it will not be conducted in a laboratory.
Domain: university class
Rule: lab-work → laboratory
Rule: /lab-work → classroom
_________________________
classroom → /lab-work
This conclusion should read: classroom → /laboratory
Tip that has worked for me: tie the concepts together. 15 cents becomes laboratory, 10 cents becomes normal classroom. Read the conclusion of the answer and then match it to the stimulus
One way to speed up this question that helped me was understanding that the two conditionals had to involve rooms that being the laboratory and the regular room.From there you can narrow it down even quicker
Correct answer should match this pattern. All the answer choices have similar premises but different conclusions. Hunt for the conclusion that satisfies the conclusion pattern from the diagram above.
took me 12 + min first round and got it wrong, watched the first couple of minutes of explantion and he recommended kicking the idea in the domain- went back again and did that, and got it right.
In my shallow dip, I saw C was logically equivalent was 100% confident about it, and moved on.
But I see now how the ACs can be tricky... E is "more similar" in reasoning structure than C. So for the future, we still need to dip all the answers...
For those who got the right answer what's the right way to approach this? I got it right out of sheer luck and when I look at this q again i don't know if i can replicate that.

Damn I always get it right during BR

_________________________
classroom → /lab-work
This conclusion should read: classroom → /laboratory
NOT: classroom → /lab-work
So does this mean negation is something that we worry about?

got this right in blind review but was still over the time limit by a minute and a half, these are going to be a struggle
unbearable question type ngl
I will never understand these questions
One way to speed up this question that helped me was understanding that the two conditionals had to involve rooms that being the laboratory and the regular room.From there you can narrow it down even quicker
to understand these a arrow b things which lesson do i go back to? is it formal logic? i struggle with NA and these chain things.. sigh #help
Stimulus Diagram:
A --> B
not A --> C
--------------
not C --> B
Correct answer should match this pattern. All the answer choices have similar premises but different conclusions. Hunt for the conclusion that satisfies the conclusion pattern from the diagram above.
I got the right answer but did the lawgic differently, where the stimulus was:
A --> B
A--> C
----------
~C --> B
Would this still work? I still got the parallel answer choice from E.
how much caffeine do i need to hit this in the suggested time and why is it 900mg?
how the hell do i do this faster
took me 12 + min first round and got it wrong, watched the first couple of minutes of explantion and he recommended kicking the idea in the domain- went back again and did that, and got it right.
got it right but terrified of the time
These questions are a huge time sink.
cheeky b smh

I got it right despite me taking 3.5 minutes, so hopefully I can start working on my time and solidifying my skills.
hohoho im getting it now i understand it now
all my homies hate parallel reasoning
#feedback the chart for answer choice C is incorrect, the conclusion should be classroom → /laboratory
32 seconds under fueled by pure false confidence
Does anyone know how to do BR on the new website?
