Quick question regarding the structure of these lessons: to this point in my LR study plan, whenever these lessons pop up that don't prompt me to actually "do" the question displayed, I always just watch J.Y. do the question all the way through and move on.
However, would it be more beneficial for me to actually attempt the question itself, and then watch the lesson?
In situations where I easily identify the correct answer under the average time, I find it difficult sitting through the videos explaining in detail why the correct answer is, in fact, correct.
Is there a mindset change I should have regarding this issue, or would I be crazy to skip to the next module?
I have a problem with continually mixing up my necessary and sufficient conditions - I think it stems from my urge to think of these sentences linearly - for example :
mastering conditional logic requires some amount of memorizing conditional indicators.
every bone in my body tells me that "mastering conditional logic" is the necessary condition, as it is a direct result of "memorizing conditional indicators" this can usually be tamed by translating to Lawgic using indicator words, but without the indicator words available, I need to restructure my thought process - does anyone have any tips on how to avoid thinking in these terms?
Commenting to highlight a pattern I believe may be relevant: On these SA questions, if I identify language similar to "usually, most of the time, occasionally, sometimes, etc." I immediately cross it out. 9 times out of 10 it is clear that the rule necessary to confirm the conclusion must deal in absolutes, it would not be sufficient in any circumstance for the rule to say "most of the time" or any relevant language to what I highlighted previously. If that language is used, then the "rule" can absolutely not be interpreted as true because a rule is only acceptable if it is binary, you either follow it or you don't.
Therefore on a question like this where 3/5 ACs use "usually", I can use POE to interpret the correct choice! Let me know if my observation is flawed please lol - I comment on these questions to reinforce my thinking - and if that thinking is flawed I'd love to know!
