It's so wacky trying to identify a non-argument. If anyone wants to join a Discord study group and/or play Minecraft with LSAT people, feel free to join my group! https://discord.gg/b8XaYkZHxk

A trick I learned from an LSAT tutor is the "why, because" test. The why is the conclusion, the because is your premise. For example: "Blue and red make purple. Purple is on the spectrum of red and blue is used to deepen and shift red to a dark lilac hue." So, why do blue and red make purple? Because blue changes how red functions. While I am not an LSAT tutor, I do have a Discord study group if anyone would like to join (or to play MC lol): https://discord.gg/b8XaYkZHxk

18/25 and then 19/25 BR. I didn't realize how helpful a BR was until now - it may have only gone up one question, but if I had read it as carefully as I did the first time, I would have gotten it. Good thing to take away!

Hi! I'm hoping to take the LSAT in November of 2026 and/or January 2026 for law school in 2026. If anyone wants to make a discord group so we can study (and cry) or like, even play Minecraft together when we're overwhelmed with despair, let me know! :D

I look at everything, and hope drills gets put into analytics, imo

I'm no tutor, but #2 was hard. Mainly bc the text was clonky, and who wants to reach about inflation. That said, there is a strategy to reading arguments like this and identifying the argument - and maybe it's a "well duh" answer, but look for the author's point in what they're saying. On the surface, it doesn't look like the author is making a point, they're just yapping about inflation, but compared to the first sentence, one is the author's opinion and one is the premise.

For an argument like this, go with the author's opinion.

When there's an argument with a premise, someone else's conclusion, and the author's - go with the author's.

In the event there is a premise and someone else's conclusion, go with someone else's conclusion being the argument, unless the stimulus asks you "what would the author's opinion be" - go off of tone, but that's its own mess.

Ex: PaperMate pens make pens that have both gel and ballpoint. According to George Clooney, the gel pens are way better than the ballpoint because the ballpoint pens run out of ink quicker than the gel.

^ It's not stating what I, the author, thinks about gel versus ballpoint (though, I do agree with this example of Clooney in this case lol), but that's the conclusion nonetheless. Again, maybe a "well duh" for most, but it's helpful to come.
