big debate around planet history based on lunar rocks. LHB on moon 4billion yrs ago. LHB shrapnels couldve affected earth.
(3) identify different perspectives and the author’s attitude
Here the authors perspective that shrapnel from LHB could have affected earth
(4) predict the direction of the next paragraph.
based on the way this passage ends i think the author is going to talk about how actually the shrapnels did not affect earth and provide a hypothesis on why they think that
Am I going insane or has some version of this passage been used before in the curriculum? I haven't taken this prep test before, but I'm having a major deja vu moment.
I went down a YouTube rabbit hole about two months ago that dealt with the solar system's early history. I learned a lot about the LHB thankfully :). Also, I'm a bit of an astronomy nerd even though I suck at math....
:[ Let me go find science content to read/listen to because I struggled to pay attention and remember the differences across theories in this one passage.
As someone who studied science with a minor in astronomy, thank you for walking me through all the other things in the entire 7Sage curriculum that my studies didn't cover! It's a bit of a treat to get a passage that I'm more familiar with.
Besides reading science articles, I also recommended watching Kurzgesagt - In a Nutshell on Youtube. He explains complex science topics/debates in a very digestible way, which should give you a better general understanding of a lot of science topics/debates (he also covers a lot more). His vids are max 10 minutes I believe.
I also find listening to The Guardian's Science Weekly podcast helpful. They're 15 minute episodes and really help me with remembering what is discussed without a text. Which helped me significantly in being able to picture a low-res summary for RC rather than writing it down.
I think building a broad and general understanding of it all is the best way to go. You can always dive into more specific and denser literature to practice/get used to LSAT passages. But having a broad knowledge base of science makes many of the science related passages/stimuli less daunting and incomprehensible.
They can get tricky to parse out lol. I've been reading Scientific American articles in my spare time to get used to sometimes boring and convoluted passages. I think it's helping. At least it's helping me practice maintaining my attention span XD
I always feel better when Kevin says that even he is having trouble or trying to understand what exactly the paragraph is saying just yet. I feel validated lol

"lunar means related to the moon" just put the 172 in the bag bro
@decriminalizemarijuana lol
i am not particularly excited about the passage like the narrator but whatever floats your boat bro
@JerryTianleChen literally. thought the exact same thing haha
finally! The 4 classes i took in Astronomy in undergrad are gonna come in play.
If anyone is from Classic 7Sage, does anyone know how you are able to download the PDF of the passages like how we were able to do on there?
Anyone else almost fell asleep?
(1) predict the Passage Style
Debate/critique
(2) make a low-resolution summary

Anyone else loathe science-related content? lol
I don’t mind the biology/human body ones. Everything else :(((
For some fast learning, I'd recommend SciShow on youtube.
