this appears to be a link assumption type of question between the Promise and Ought concepts.

B would be a really good weakening answer for this question

All my practice with NA questions helped me out on this one lol.

I would first make sure that the law schools you want to attend to will accept the Feb LSAT, as some schools have "last" accepted LSAT month tests before they make a decision.

@nathanbrowny2 this was my thinking as well. Good to know now that its wrong to think that.

My best advice

1. Supplement 7Sage with other resources / different study companies. 7Sage is one of way learning the LSAT, but their method may not work the best for the way you learn. You may need to learn/try different LSAT methods to find the one that fits for you.

   1. YouTube videos

   2. Reddit/Forum Discussions

   3. The Loophole, LSAT Trainer, etc.

2. Write notes intentionally. Don't just copy EVERYTHING from J.Y. Try your best to summarize the concepts in your own words. Of course sometimes it's okay to just copy paste, but try to paraphrase when possible.

3. Try to explain questions/concepts to others. If you can vocalize your thoughts to someone, it may be useful in solidifying concepts.

4. Don't overstudy/move too fast. There is a fine line between quality and quantity. I don't know the pace you've been learning, but it's possible you are moving on from lessons before you have solidified the knowledge.

No way I would've reasoned why E is a NA, but I understand how to get the correct answer in the allotted time.

@kyorofan20 Unfortunately I believe the only 2 combinations possible are:

2 LR/2 RC or 3LR/1RC

Had D then switched to A last second. Completely didn't even realize that I chose A based off the author's opinion and not the many lawyers. This was hard to realize as the two perspectives are generally in agreement, with only a slight difference.

Note to self: Remember even perspectives that are in agreement can differ in the "why they believe" aspect.

the way this question is broken down is so damn much to process 

@natcat same. JY thinks of the right answer/wrong answers in certain ways that he prefers. Unless specifically mentioned in the future/other similar questions are right with that difference, I am going to assume we are okay in using that as a reason to eliminate an AC

This is one of those questions where you a lot of choose the right AC only due to the other ACs seeming wrong and not because we think it's right.

I like think of this question of every stage as a parlay.

You can have a 9 leg parlay with -250 odds on each leg. Individually, they are all likely to hit (based on the odds at least), and yet when combined altogether the odds are +1966 and NOT -250.

Similar to each stage as described by JY. Each stage is (like his example) 90/10 odds. This does not mean that the mission to mars has a 90/10 of no failure, as probabilities do not work that way.

Hope this helps someone else understand.

I have literally never done a hard question under time but this was seemingly easy as 123. Idk whats going on but im okay with it

I was on the brink of solving this in BR but decided to just go with my original answer. Knew E could be right but didn't know how my original choice was wrong.

This question type is so frusturating because many of these questions my intuition is right, but I cannot for the life of me explain why they're right, they just feel right in my head. My head is doing some kind of processing but I cannot explain or write out the reasonings. Then there are the ones my inuition don't pick up and I feel lost.

to me this question type feels so intuitive but I can't make the reasoning as to why I think an AC is correct conscious enough to describe consistently. Any tips?

in BR this answer was so obvious at first glance. No idea what I was thinking while taking the test lol

past 3 5 difficult answers ive gotten right somehow despite not fulling understand just going off gut feeling. Is this good or bad

Is another way to get to the answer E is that the argument requires there are medevial epistemologists, but E weakens that assumption?

@Elijah Mize Is AC D wrong because it makes too big of an assumption?

@StudentD look up the definition of posterity and that'll answer it for you

Can't really explain my thought process, but I understood enough of the structure to realize and understand that B just felt right. Idk if its good to lean on my intuition but for this PSAr types it has been real good to me.

Got this one wrong because I had A chosen and didn't read the last part of E thats unforunate

I really overthought the fuck outta this question
