Answer choice D makes such a huge assumption for the conclusion to justify the principle... Kind of ridiculous to me. I mean, yeah, I get it, but this is just kind of ridiculous when compared to B.
Older cars can easily be just as good as a newer car. What if the car is 5 years older? The changes in a car that is 5 years older than a car that is 5 years newer could simply be technological differences. I do not buy JY's explanation of this. I've thought about this question for literally hours... There are so many assumptions to be made when considering D.
Tough question, and by the time I got to this question on this PT I was running low on time because this is one of the more difficult sections I've done on a PT. However, I completely misread the question stem. For some reason I thought it was a SA question and not a strengthen. I do remember, though, that while reading the answer choices I said that none of these are necessarily assumptions, but I chose an answer that I thought was right and moved on due to time constraints.
When I started studying full time, approximately four months ago, LG was by far my worst section. With diligent practice and doing the full-proof method, I have significantly raised my average performance. Now, it seems that I am plateauing with LR... LR is now pretty much my worst section(s) and also my least favorite sections to take.
Any tips?
I've done all the core curriculum and looked over the lessons that I think I feel the most uncomfortable with several times. I've seen that I've missed some of the Weakening and Strengthening questions which are basically freebies, and when BR'ing I say to myself, "Why in the hell are you missing these?!"
@cadebiyi1509 yes, I plan on starting my applications in December after I receive my November score. Thank you for the encouraging words!
@samanthaashley92715 Thank you for your suggestions! I'll keep this in mind.
@cadebiyi1509 Thank you! I sure hope so, just gotta nail down LG and I think I'll be there. Thank you for confidence!
@leahbeuk911 Thank you so much! I'll definitely do that then; LR and LG used to be equally as bad, but the CC really, really helped me through each question type with LR, and I just need more practice with LG. Again, though, thank you for your comments and suggestions, it means a lot!
@lucykelly459 thank you!! I appreciate it and I'll definitely check that out.
Hello all,
I started studying on approximately July 24th, have moved through all the LR curriculum, and have broken through to LG curriculum and using the fool proof method. I applied to law schools for the 2018 application cycle with less than proficient LSAT scores; from 140, 143, 145, respectively. I received two offers, but I did not want to settle for they were not as prominent a status for the standard I hold to myself.
Yesterday, I took my first practice since I've started studying and scored a raw 156, and 160 BR on PT77. Honestly, I didn't think I would make this jump quite this fast and I was extremely excited to see my result. My best sections were RC at 20 correct, with a close second in LR at 19 correct. LG was by far my worst because I saw game 3 and immediately started panicking.
Looking for any feedback, because I'm wanting to break 160 consistently before taking the November test. I am going to take another PT in a couple of days with a blind review and I will update you guys when the time comes!
Best,
Parker
The only reason I got this question wrong was because I did not separate the differences between the word "few" and the word "many." Both, to my understanding, mean the same thing: "some." If, for example, AC (C) used the modifier "little," then I think it would work. However, this AC seems to contradict this rule.
