Love how they never reply to these types of questions lol. They show us the basics and say good luck! Really wish they did more to help us through the process/ #feedback

what the hell was this

I found that I do quite well on the questions during the syllabus, the drills and other questions alike, which I get right very consistently and under the time even for the 4 and 5 stars, but I am struggling to see that same success when it comes to the drills. Anyone else having the same problem? Or have any possible solutions? I turn the clock off in the top right all the time anyways, just so I don't feel the anxiety of going over, but timing or rushing through the questions has never really been the problem. #feedback

Personally I feel like this assumption could trip you up down the road in different questions. I think there was a question just a few examples back that sort of went over this question, sorry for not remembering the exact one but it can certainly trip you up. Like for example if option C was irrelevant to the topic, I feel like E would be a close second because it still says the same point in a weaker way (this is what my thought process was, I could be wrong)

Now I can see it as well. Sometimes the answer won't be directly correlated as much as other questions lead us to assume, but it is the only somewhat close option. The others are so off the mark, I guess we are left with B. So many little tricks on the LSAT that I can't keep up. Thanks for your reply!

Right - this should NOT take 17 minutes to explain.

I understand why all the other options are wrong, but I am still not fully convinced I understand why B is right. Could anyone try explaining it in a different way? #feedback

Most questions have choices that are so clearly wrong that I do not even think twice about them, and I am usually left with two, sometimes three solid options, for which I give myself enough time to read through the stimulus once more, especially the key parts I highlighted. That helps me quickly remember the main point and what I am looking for. Also more practice would just make this more intuitive but this is what has worked for me. Hope this helps!

You got this! Just go over the questions again like 2-3 days later and I promise it comes back to you in ways you could not imagine.

Coming back to these questions a few hours later really helped me understand why my answers were initially wrong. Really paints a clearer picture as to what small mistakes I was making earlier.

#feedback I feel like these easier questions should be placed at the front of the lesson so the relationship between stimulus and correct answers becomes apparent from early on. Personally I know I would have benefited from this.

Just practice really. The more you do these questions, the quicker it will just become intuitive to look for certain things. I have already cut my time in half through doing drills and just breaking down the stimulus into predicate, conclusion etc. so I know in the back of my mind what I am looking for.
