@epayne17 one wrong question in an LR set can be a make or break between a 179 and a 180 - i would argue even minority questions are important to review. if you are not aiming for a perfect score thats totally ok, but don't put down learning technique even when its for minority questions when others are trying to perfect every type, even when rare. they've also made it very clear that SA and NA CANNOT be approached the same way.

@meepmorp yes. the statement says that teeth and bone are much more likely to fossilize than cartilage, so it is a very reasonable assumption to make that teeth are closer to bone than to cartilage in terms of its likelihood in fossilizing.

this is sort of what i'm getting from this (not 100% sure its right but at least it's time relevant)

all noah kahan songs are depressing.

most noah kahan songs are about running away.

therefore, some depressing songs are about running away OR some songs about running away are depressing.

NK -> D

NK -m-> RA

D <-s-> RA (can also be flipped)

Happy Noah Kahan release weekend :)

the " failing a sufficient condition means nothing but failing a necessary condition yield's valid conclusions" genuinely shifted the way I have thought about suff/nec for the last year of studying wow. this is SO helpful

@DeborahJimenez I seriously recommend not using chatgpt for the LSAT. it doesnt understand it properly and you will get questions wrong because of it

@purplesunshine007 its so funny because youre the only other person ive ever seen use this form. i worked w a tutor once and i was like oh its like a math equation like they cancel each other out and he was like ... wtf are you talking about ?? I dont have a math brain by any means but these kinds of arguments reminded me of cancelling out two-sided equations lol

@jadestudies I got a 147 on my diagnostic in jan 2025 and sporadically studied (with a partner that did not like that i was studying which made it harder lol) from jan to march, stopped studying until july, and crammed until november and got a 162. TLDR: definitely possible as long as you stay consistent and dont take breaks like i did lol!! and also dont have a partner that doesnt support u and ur dreams :)

@smoleary you will do great!! I was scared to take it in november and didnt feel prepared but i walked in calm and did well. I'm retaking because I want a higher score, just know that you can ALWAYS push registration to august (which is still before fall 2027 apps open anyway) and give yourself more time. You got this easy!!!
