For people who are preparing the LSAT and plan to take it after August 2024, that the original LG section will be replaced by an additional LR section, how is everybody utilizing the PTs? Since the PTs are past exams, they include the LG section. But LG will not exist in the exam anymore starting August next year. But if we simply skip the LG section when doing the PTs, our scoring will not be an accurate reference. What are people doing to overcome this?

The LSAT is subtle in an unfair way imo... at some point we cannot assume too much, but at some point we have to assume way more than other times. The stimulus tells us it is "important that research money not be wasted," we are trained to not assume this means it is of utmost importance to not waste research money, but in this case we are required to assume that this means not wasting money is the #1 priority. It just seems unfair how we are expected to know what's on the test writers mind and know when to make assumptions to a degree that will be fatal in many other circumstances in this exam.

Do you still do the LG section in PTs even though it won’t be on the exam starting August 2024?

@ this is very helpful information, thank you for sharing!
For answer choice A, how does the stimulus support the idea that violence is one of the forms of aggression, and not all aggression mean violence? How can we infer from the passage that aggression can be something other than violent? To me it doesn't mean other forms of aggression exist simply because violence is a form of it; violence may be the only form in this scenario. For example, when we say the US is a country that uses English as an official language, we cannot infer that there are other countries that also use English officially. All we can know that English is used in the US, we cannot infer from this that there are other countries that use or don't use English. That is how I thought it cannot be inferred from the passage that not all aggression is violent, because it isn't specified in the passage and therefore aggression may only be violent.
