@Tumptytumtoes I don't know if this help but this is how i did it:
1) conditional reasoning-
government claims that the nuclear industry is safe---> people's fear of accidents is irrational
limited financial liability poses a threat---> government must protect nuclear industry from bankruptcy
unlimited liability poses a threat---> injury claims are held against the nuclear industry
injury claims are held against the nuclear industry---> injury resulting from nuclear accident
2) summarize the information
when an injury resulting from a nuclear accident occurs, that is only when it can be held against the nuclear industry. when it is held against the industry, it poses a threat of bankruptcy in an unlimited liability setting. if the government was a 100% certain tat the chances of an accident were none, it would not make sense to limit financial liability...
3) analyzing question 'D'
D- The government sometimes makes unsupported claims about what situations will arise, but it does not act to prevent a certain kind of situation from arising unless there is a real danger that such a situation will arise.
apply it into formal logic:
government acts to prevent a certain kind of situation--> there is a real danger that such a situation will arise
so...
the situation here is that the industry will go bankrupt if an accident occurs resulting from a nuclear accident, if the government is trying to prevent this situation, then it must mean that nuclear accidents are likely to occur. thus, the people's fears are justified as well as the editorials.
hope this helps:)
@Arthurxx I started to hide the timing, constantly looking at the time in the corner increase made me stress out a lot and made me more likely to rush through each question.
Now, even though I do take longer than normal to answer questions, I get more correct compared to the former.
I also started writing down simple summaries and assuming the correct answer. I feel like it is better to take your time to prioritize getting answers correct even if they take longer ( I’m talking like 10 minutes for the harder questions).
@legallyhaya I find that its better than taking normal drills. in comparison to normal drills, I like how it gradually moves from easy questions to harder ones, I don't have that kind of transition with normal drills. Also I do tend to take my time with them rather than trying to meet the time limits per question.
in terms of reviewing my mistakes, I try to first figure out why the correct answer is correct by myself and if i am having trouble with it, I typically use 7sages explanation videos.
Hello, I just recently started studying for the lsat and am hoping to take the LSAT in February...
I started off at a 130 and am now at a 155 (which isn't the best I'm aware). throughout my time studying I found that i do better on preptests when I finish a question and then reveal the answer. also, I manage to do much better when i write every single thing out, but that takes a lot of time which i wont have during the real thing.
Has anyone gone through this? if so any advice would be great... my goal is to at least get a 170

@dyalasafi unlimited timing!! I feel like in this stage it is more important to focus on accuracy rather than timing.the more accurate you are, the more likely you are able to instinctively apply the methods
