@og8888 Could you please explain how it makes it easier? I feel like this would involve the assumption that its easy to find peptides that bind to any material.
@mesposito886426 I found the 20+ lines 52-55 to be unconvincing. It says "expanded their targets to 20+" that doesn't that they found the peptides. And it also doesn't mean that those peptides will bind to the 20 and will also bind to different "substitutional" materials. Even if as AC B says almost any semiconductor material could function in the same way and be subsituted for it there is no guarantee that the peptides can be used on the different materials, even though the materials' use is the same. Use of the material and compatibility of the substance and the peptides are two different things.
Hi I'm interested! Thank you for offering it sounds mutually beneficial :) I'm currently PTing around 160-165, I struggle the most with Flaw, Necessary Assumption, Sufficient Assumption, Weaken, Causal Reasoning, and Phenomenon Hypothesis type questions, time zone is currently Pacific Daylight Time Zone.
@blueorbit2400 Do you drill the hardest questions untimed or with regular time? I will try speed training with full sections and will continue drilling my weakest questions. Thank you for the advice!
@haena That is really helpful thank you! I was doing the drills but I didn't see any progress but maybe I did not keep at it long enough. You've got this, just a little more!
Hey all it feels like I’m a bit stuck in the 160-165 range. Are there any tips that helped you break into the 170 range?
I don't understand why C is wrong. Inappropriate group conformity happens when the following occur "closed-mindedness to warnings of problems and to alternative viewpoints; and unwarranted pressures toward uniformity, including self-censorship with respect to doubts about the group's reasoning" Which is the same as saying because of all of the above aka "lack of information" can lead to bad decisions or "inappropriate group conformity"
Hi! I'm wondering if anyone can advise if parallel reasoning questions will always include valid arguments unless otherwise stated like parallel flaw questions? I over thought and tried to find the flaw of the reasoning and because I picked on the fact that French department does not necessarily mean language classes that messed up my ability to find the right answer.
Honestly I chose A because I could see where it was going. The Carpas was probably not the type of theater Valdez was looking to create. He did have a background in European theater training. I did not see anywhere in the passage where it specified that farmers were acting in "artistically successful Theatrical performances" I thought the passage only mentioned that Valdez asked farmers to act out scenes and used this for inspiration not that they became the first actors of the initial Actos.
Following the 7Sage tutors on their advice in the wrong answer explanations on the comparative passages really helps. After I started reading passage 1 eliminating answers then reading passage 2 and selecting answers my RC score improved a lot. For passages with hard topics in general I found that slowing down counterintuitively helps. But I found this tip only works when you start reading in the "right way." So before I start the lsat or any section I write down reminders of what my brain needs to pick up during the read: main point, purpose of passage, purpose of paragraphs, different povs, authors attitude. Last tip is a personal tip but I find that if there is a difficult to understand science phenomenon that they explain in the passage they are for sure going to ask about it in an implied or stated question. That is why slowing down and rephrasing in the head, works at least for me.
