I was wondering what the main differences between most strongly supported questions and Weakening questions such as how to approach them?

Normal:

Strongly Supported:

  • The Stimulus does not have an argument, but rather premises
  • You have to find the conclusion of the argument in the answer choices
  • Weakening:

  • The Stimulus has an Argument (Premises/Conclusion)
  • You have to find the answer that weakens the support between the premises and conclusion in the answer choices
  • Causation and Phenomenon-Hypothesis:

    Strongly Supported:

  • The Stimulus has a phenomenon and hypothesis
  • You have to find the answer that blocks out alternative hypothesis
  • Weakening:

  • The Stimulus has a phenomenon and hypothesis
  • You have to find the answer that is competing or corroborating with the hypothesis
  • Please let me know if this is wrong and how I can improve my understanding.

    Thanks.

    Hey AnjellaFluffy, concentration has been a problem with me and I will be taking the August test in one month. I have been able to obtain focused concentration after making a disciplined schedule every day. I started running every day and going to bed/waking up early to get into a disciplined schedule. After doing something every day, I started making myself do an LSAT practice test every 2 days. Between those two days, I spent working on the issues I have been having in Logical Reasoning and Logic Games.

    By creating a disciplined schedule, I have been able to concentrate more by focusing on doing the same schedule every day. Even if I have activities scheduled for the day I am doing the Practice LSAT, I make sure to accomplish the LSAT no matter what. Although everyone’s situation is different and everybody has a unique way of practicing for the LSAT. By starting to do something similar every day such as jogging, waking up early, doing an LSAT every other day, and working on problems that I face during the LSAT sections like Neccesarry Assumption has helped me increase my LSAT score.

    Are you sure?
