you don't have the right, O you don't have the right
therefore you don't have the right, O you don't have the right
I read a comment down below that argued how considerable controversy and widespread agreement are not mutually exclusive. I don't understand how that could ever be possible.
This makes so little sense to me I feel like one of those students mentioned earlier in the curriculum who writes to the LSAC to argue the answer is wrong.
I got the last 3 three wrong, felt those were all really hard, and then I felt that the answer to this one was hilariously obvious. But this is a difficulty 4 question. Make it make sense
@5a_san I BR every time (without looking at the score), but focus only on the questions that are circled in red. They can be circled in red either because I got it wrong or because I spent too much time on that question.
Having that doubt about whether I actually got it wrong or not forces me to think about the stim a little deeper than if I had known for sure I got it wrong already, in which case I would probably just choose the other answer choice that I was close to picking originally.
If nothing is circled in red, then yay, I did well, I move on, unless there is a question that really stumped me that I'd like to hear the explanation for.
I also try to answer as fast as I can on the orignal question/drill, like I would on a practice LSAT, because I believe that's the only way I can get my brain to reason the same way it will when actually taking the LSAT. BR is an opportunity to actually really take my time with these questions.
@nycxchi aesthetic value may be "relevant to the value it commands"
but it does not tell you enough to say "both should be deemed of equal value"
aesthetic value could, for example be relevant to a very small degree, but there could be some much more important factor to the value a diamond command commands.
it leaves the door open for a possibility such as "the diamond looks good, sure, and that matters a little bit, but the value of knowing a diamond is real matters much more"
in that world, "both should be deemed of equal value" would be false
For SA questions, am I right to generally throw out answer choices that use language like "may/in part/might/etc." like A does?
Ok, I got this one right, basically off my intuition.
But can someone explain why we can just automatically throw out answer choices with "only if" or other necessary condition indicators?
Like, what if it was established that Ms. Sandstrom had known pointing out the anomaly would cause people to flock to the farm prior to writing her column?
these questions, more than any other category, feel like all I need is my intuition
i dont know why but these WSE questions take me so much longer than any other question type
i got it right, but man it's so tough to avoid my eyes glazing over and daydreaming when reading an overly "science-based" passage like this
like, i'm studying for law school because i was bad at this stuff, damn it!
5/5 and under time on all but one kachow
if only they could all be this easy
