another disagreement with using custom illustrations is that they can be fabricated to strengthen a litigants weak case, but author disagrees with this take and say there would be an expert testimony that would be able to testify to its accuracy.
(2) identify different perspectives
We have another line of disagreement along with the authors own argument towards this
(3) predict the direction of the next paragraph
I predict we will be given a deeper insight into the authors argument
#feedback is the low-res summary just buzzwords? I know the low-res summary is to help me remember what the paragraph is about, but I struggle with just keeping it to a word or a few words. Any strategy?
@Favour_Adelakun I generally try to sum it up as a viewpoint (ie x bad, y good, critics: x), or just the main topic and an adjective to keep things short (ie. illustrations beneficial).
in the intro section where the author is speaking, we get a hint at what we see at the end of this paragraph. the author says the debate has misinformation. to me that hinted to the authors opinion. and sure enough we see that in this last part of the paragraph where the author does address misinformation. just a reminder to me, whenever the author is speaking to pay strong attention.
Wouldn't using x-rays or scanning images be the most accurate way to determine someone's injuries? Or would that go against HIPPA laws to be used in court?
They can be used in court! I used to intern at a workers comp firm and we would get client's medical records, ranging from regular appointments (related to the injury) to X-rays/MRIs all the way to some pictures of the injury the day it happened!
Your information is still protected by HIPAA, but when shared with lawyers and staff at a law firm you've consented to have that information shared. However, it's still protected through confidentiality agreements, which is basically the legal profession's version of HIPAA.
Do you recommend marking the passage on the real test or the practice tests? For example, mark where the internal breaks occur using the highlighter option, or highlight key words or mark the location of the different opinions in different colors.
I think the idea is to get to the point where you don't need to and instead can just intuitively remember/very quickly skim for details if need be. Maybe writing out low-res summaries on scratch paper for the first few untimed passages can help if you have trouble remembering, but that'll take up time during actual sections.
I personally like to highlight what I consider to be the main point or most important sentence of each paragraph, and I highlight each time a name appears of someone who holds an opinion, as well as when certain important words appear, just so I can easily refer back to them. But that's just because this works for me, and everyone has their own strategies too
Same, that's kind of like what I'm doing right now. I am considering adding passage breaks to my list, because I noticed that you are supposed to have a low-res summary for each chunk of passage separated by passage breaks.
Definitely a great idea and I’m considering that too. Seeing where the tone changes and where support transitions to opposition or vice versa seems to be huge, especially since this lesson’s showed me that multiple breaks can occur in one paragraph, much more frequently than I thought

low res summary #2:
opponent view #2 - deceptive, used to bolster a weak case
author view #2 - false, not deceptive, medical expert has to testify to its accuracy
(1) make a low-resolution summary
another disagreement with using custom illustrations is that they can be fabricated to strengthen a litigants weak case, but author disagrees with this take and say there would be an expert testimony that would be able to testify to its accuracy.

One Piece mentioned 4:09
#feedback There is a typo in the subtitles at 2:07. It says "Laja" instead of "LawHub."
Oh we are gonna do big things together on this test.
lets goo.

I believe so, yes! It's not about including everything, think of 2-3 main words that describe the importance of the paragraph.
