I was wondering what have people done to improve their scores on the reading comprehension section. Ive heard the more sections you go through the more patterns one will learn. Has anything noticed some patterns in this section that seem to be reoccurring? I am still avg. -10 on this section and can't seem to improve my score. I am just not a fast enough reader and once i get to the last passage i feel like i am rushing to complete the questions. Please Help! :(

I didn't like D since it stated "many times deeper", i didn't think that meant more areas.
so for B to be correct, we would have to know who the opponents were?
@kingse414 My BR is avg -5. What is your strategy and what's worked for you?
Speaking from experience, there's literally no point in doing PT's if you're only halfway through the CC, you don't have a strong understanding of the key concepts that are tested on the LSAT.
For #8, the question states the 1943 edition, so how were we supposed to know in his later years the revisions were representative of this date? #help
Can't believe i got this wrong...What is life?
Scientific issues being compared to social issues.
Social issues have important political implications and that's why providing equal time make sense.
Then it's stated as the conclusion, if there's scientific issues then there shouldn't be an obligation for providing equal time.
Argument is assuming scientific issues can't have political implications. We want to expose this assumption and deny/disagree with it, meaning they can have political implications.
A. [wrong; this supports the argument because it agrees with the assumption]
B/C/E: [wrong; irrelevant]
D. [correct; this calls out the assumption and disagrees with it, scientific issues HAVE political implications]
Yup, the wording of D was hard to comprehend under timed conditions. Sigh.
I didn't choose D because i thought it attacks the premise...can someone please clarify?

T: the linkage between oceans and human eccentricity is due to the practice of using ships as asylums
S: oceans have ALWAYS been viewed eccentricity (invariably associated mysterious + unpredictable)
Thus, they disagree over when/time
I thought D was right because the manager states that copper must be reheated after it's cooled, and it cost more to run, so this could mean the process isn't fuel-efficient but i guess that's an assumption i was making to link the two. Oh well. B does make more sense now.
C is so tricky and subtle in regards to why it's wrong.
I thought "at least one" meant some, so i did JsomeB = some joist are brocken. Although i did the diagram wrong, i still choose A.
Good teachers, texts, and facilities don't matter if no student attendance.
BCD don't matter if no A.
A. [wrong; honesty and good knowledge don't matter if you alienate the customer].
B. [wrong; ones way and comfortable shelter don't matter if no food gathering]
C. [wrong; high tech lab and analysis don't matter if no physical evidence gathered]
D. [wrong; knowledge and facilities don't matter if no collection of books].
E. [correct; there is no bigger picture or idea].
Yes, the type of argument and structure matter, it has to be parallel in reasoning. If the stimulus has a conditional or causal relationship, then the answer choice must follow that.

ANY injury incurred because of a city sidewalk in need of repair or maintenance, city of G is Liable.

Liable for injuries…only if they knew about the danger beforehand and negligently failed to eliminate it.

A. [wrong; negligent]
B. [wrong; irrelevant, shopping bag has nothing to do with city issues].
C. [correct; minutes before is not negligence].
D. [wrong; not even in need of repair, "perfectly"]
E. [wrong; irrelevant, nothing to do with city issues]
This questions proves LSAT writers are pieces of shits and how much harder the test has become from the earlier days, smh!
