Does anyone have an explanation for why the answer wouldn't be A? Thanks!

I was wondering when it is appropriate to start foolproofing logic games? I went through each kind of game (actually through blueprint's curriculum, but I really disliked Blueprint's explanations, so I just signed up for 7sage). I have a general feel for each kind of game but am still not great and below average at LG.

I plan to start foolproofing the games from tests 1-35 (aim to do 1 or 2 a day) and on the side continue drilling with 7sage a few games a day (not necessarily foolproofing).

Does anyone have any input?

I've been struggling with MSS questions, so I drill every day. I would love someone's explanation of why D is correct. I chose B. I find myself I think making assumptions instead of taking everything I need for my answer from the stimulus. Along with this, any strategies for MSS questions??? Thank you!!!

Reasoning structure currently seems like an abstract idea when it comes to reading comprehension. My goal is to make it more of a practical understanding, kind of like how I understand diagramming in logic games.

I am starting to think of looking at reasoning structure for a reading comprehension passage similar to how I look at a method of reasoning question on logical reasoning. This seems to help, but need to practice this more with passages.

Any insight on I can transition my understanding of reasoning structure from something abstract to more of a practical understanding?

Is there a explanation video for this question, I was not able to find it.

LG is by far my worst section and I am looking to test in June. I'm on the "Introduction to Logic" section of the Core Curriculum (pretty early), but is the core curriculum necessary before getting into "Introduction to Logic Games & Sequencing Games"?

Also, I bought the Logic Games Bible. At what point in the study process should I start with that-- is there a section in the CC anyone would recommend getting to first? Thanks.

LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim (pg. 320) talks about how the opinions of the author of a reading comprehension does not need to be a main point.

How can this be the case?

I want to be able to discern between the two.

A natural follow up to this question:

Is there a subtle difference between understanding "Why the author wrote the passage?" and "Why the passage, in general, was written?"

For this question I was between choice A and D, and ultimately went with D even though I was not entirely confident. Can someone please explain why D is not the correct answer, and why A is? #Help

Could someone please explain this one? Doesn't only one flight have multiple Saturdays in between?

Hi,

I'm testing in february and have been working on the core curriculum since last May. I work full time and don't have much time to take a test per day. I'm pretty much limited to two full tests per weekend if I'm lucky.

I have taken many pt's from 1-35, a few from 35-69, and just 70 from the newer administrations. Should I focus more on the ones from 70-present with the time I have left? I hear these are more challenging but more reflective of the current tests. TIA!

I'm currently working my way through the core curriculum in the hopes of taking the June 2023 LSAT. I've only been doing 1-2 of the problem sets after each section so that I can save them for later in case I need more help in a certain area (once I begin taking PTs). I've noticed that a lot of these problem sets, however, are in the "easy" range based on the stats that accompany them. Should I be taking the drills (which appear to have varying difficulty) now, or save these for when I start taking the PTs? Thanks for any insight! :)

For this question, I had gotten it correct in the timed test, but ended up changing my answer in BR.

I wanted to discuss my reasoning for the BR, so that maybe it would help solidify why I chose B to begin with.

My reasoning was as follows:

I had initially chose B, but changed it during BR because I felt like the passage didn't explicitly tell us that the political stability would decrease. It did mention that believing that the constitution was being interpreted consistently with the intentions of its authors was "so necessary for political stability", but my reasoning during BR was that since it didn't explicitly state that politically stability would INCREASE, so I went with D.

From my understanding (please correct me if wrong) B is correct because ultimately we could ASSUME from the info given that political instability would increase from the info given.

However, I would now be extremely interested in why D would be wrong lol!

Anyways, just wanted to open up a discussion about this question :)

I understand this might be a stupid question, but what is the best way to diagram on the LSAT? I've just started studying Logic Games and I'm diagramming on notebook paper. Since the LSAT is administered digitally and paper isn't allowed, what should I do? I guess writing everything on screen with a mouse doesn't seem that efficient to me.

.

I am struggling to figure out as to why A is the correct answer.

For those of you who have RC as experimental section, wonder which RC is the experimental one?

why is D incorrect? In responding to the Rotelle, Sims shows that the same could be said about Rotelle's youth and inexperience when it comes to age, so isn't that thereby showing he is contradicting himself? How should one choose between D and E?

Is D correct because identical twins have the same genetic information? Is this just something we are supposed to know or is the answer warranted by the passage?

It's unclear to me why D assists in weakening the argument? Isn't the argument that efforts have not worked to have people recycle plastics? If so, how does it weaken the authors argument that recycling methods have improved for non-plastics? Very confused. TIA

I recall taking a single timed LR section as part of the syllabus at or near the end of the LR curriculum, however I deleted it and can't find it anymore.

I would like to retake it to assess where I'm at after taking a hiatus from studying, however I can't find it anywhere. Does anybody know where I could find this?

Thanks

where can I find this lesson in core curriculum?

Main point questions are pretty much the only questions I really struggle with on RC, and can be really frustrating and time consuming since they seem pretty subjective. Does anyone have a trick to deal with these questions specifically? Thanks
