I miss all of the comments where did everyone go 😭

Are we allowed scrap paper taking the LSAT online? #help

How come "if" here is a necessary indicator? How do you know to add "only" to it?? #help

Yes you got it. Also just because they "believe" they are more susceptible to skin cancer doesn't mean that they actually are!

I think D eliminates another hypothesis that there results were due to faulty examination or instruments. Since D tells us the instruments were highly accurate, it makes this a better experiment which strengths the validity of the argument and the experiment results. I think that's why D helps strengthen.

Thank you! I need to review the lawgic I missed the difference between "the only" and only"!

What confused me here was the stimulus. I did not think there was a disagreement or issue to be reconciled. I thought because a higher percentage are convicted, that is why there are a fewer number of car thefts. The stimulus said nothing about MORE or INCREASED convictions. it just said people are more likely to be convicted for stealing cars. The number of cars stolen can be the same but now it's just more likely they will be convicted. I think it tells us more of a fact about the world rather than a change that happened. The question should be interpreted as "despite a lower number of car thefts, conviction rates have increased" but this is not what the stimulus says, its more "there are a lower number of car thefts and its more likely to be convicted if you do steal a car". Based on the wording of this, the two ideas seem to be almost irrelevant. How do I overcome this confusion #help

A makes no sense to me. Why are we talking about people who think he is poor? Where does "almost all" come from? I don't think the numbers suggest "almost all". #help

Why is A wrong? If the condition following "only" is the necessary condition isn't the other one the sufficient? Why would it not say the same thing as /10+ > MS? #help

B is also more implicit and requires further speculation when this is an explicit question. Also Sam's argument does not mention or imply this point at all so it would be merely consistent with for Sam, which means that is cannot be the right answer for both of them.

I am not sure how to pick out the embedded conditional. #help

I think "only" here is a modifier and not a conditional indicator. It's describing which ones were written down > the "only ones". If you take out only the sentence still works and you would get the right conditions. I think thats why!

I was wondering the same thing. It says if necessary failed the sufficient must be as well and LSD fails means M is satisfied so I think you can conclude that. But I think I'm interpreting it wrong. #help

I know it's hard but just try to think of the test as something beatable and studying as enjoying. Challenge yourself- see how much you can get done in a day. See what concepts you enjoy the most. Or better yet, set aside a time you think you can manage and do that per day. For example I am taking the LSAT for the first time in August and am also taking online classes right now, but I am challenging myself to study for the LSAT at least 2 hours per day. It's a lot with online classes and I end up doing work for 10 hours a day, but I feel productive knowing I got the LSAT studying in.

I also personally like the LSAT much more than the SAT since there is no math, so I find that motivates me and I find myself having a much more positive attitude about the LSAT since I feel it is beatable (because there is no math)! A lot of the 7Sage lecture videos are really short which is good motivation as well. Just keep pressing to the next and remember why you are taking the LSAT! Good luck!

I think it's a modifier in this sentence!
