It seems that most of ya'll are getting and that's awesome, I feel that I spot the correct answer, and one that is similar and it just takes me a long time to find the correct one. Any advice? thanks in advance
@LauraBolivar Since time is a big factor, I usually go with my stronger instinct, which I have found has become a lot more accurate with drilling a lot of questions. I think it is because after seeing so many answers, I have started to subconsciously pick up on how right answers sound, if that makes sense?
@Cfb72 Yeah no I took a drill and the ones that I consciously did I got almost all of them right, however, do you have any tips on how to like get more answers right consciously? if that makes any sense
@LauraBolivar I know this is a late reply but for me I find it easier to spot an incorrect answer than a correct one. The LSAT writers love to make the correct answer choice sound extremely mediocre while making incorrect answer choices sound appealing. Ellen Cassidys book "The Loophole" has a helpful chapter on "red flag" answer choices and with practice it has really helped me to eliminate answers that "seem correct" but are too strong, out of scope, etc.
I believe the question difficulty relates to the singular question whereas the PSG/Game/S difficulty refers to the difficulty of the overall passage/game/section. So, the difficulty for this passage is a constant value while the singular question difficulty varies question to question.

31 seconds :)
11 seconds lets go!!!!!
29 seconds? Heck yeah
37 seconds is my crutch
what is the difference between question difficulty and PSG/Game/S difficulty?
I believe the question difficulty relates to the singular question whereas the PSG/Game/S difficulty refers to the difficulty of the overall passage/game/section. So, the difficulty for this passage is a constant value while the singular question difficulty varies question to question.
These are super helpful explanations, thank you all!
the S stands for stimulus. It is the difficulty of the language and subject matter in the actual passage in RC or stimulus in LR
