I understood exactly what I got wrong on the first try and got it right on the Blind Review - I hope this unlocked a new neural pathway for me, lol.
So this question wasn't just about finding an AC that WEAKENS an argument, we just had to find one that DIDN'T SUPPORT the argument.
I think that's why I chose (C) thinking it was an alternate explanation of the cause, when it was actually providing additional comparative evidence for the argument. (D) is the right answer because the info it provides does not matter to the stimulus.
After three months of studying with the LSAT Trainer and other textbook-based resources, I moved on to 7sage because I heard good thing about it, but I've found myself scoring lower and being more confused on questions.
Did all of my knowledge suddenly disappear, or is the LSAT Trainer irrelevant to studying with 7sage, or am I just adjusting differently to studying on the screen?
Let's say I don't get enough sleep in the day. After a day of work, I go home to study, but I can't focus no matter how hard I try to wake myself up. I put in less effort during my study session, I cut corners, and I just can't pay proper attention. Would it be better off to power through and study anyways, or is it better to put off studying until I'm fully rested and at top condition?
I've always tried powering through but I'm thinking of changing that. I've learned that mindset is EVERYTHING while taking the LSAT, and I don't want to get into practicing the habits that I develop while sleep deprived.
What do you guys think?
Completely missed that the question stem said "must be false."
How do I get better at reading and understanding arguments faster?
This was upsetting and confusing because the phrase "guarantee" made me think that the plants COULD NOT POSSIBLY be disease free, so I ignored (E). In all of my LSAT studying, I have learned to take words literally and not make up assumptions like this.
Literally the only reason why I got this question wrong is because I read and analyzed the wrong portion. Remember, highlight the portion that you're focusing on if you need a reminder to ground yourself.
