Why am I getting all the "hard" questions right but the "easy" ones wrong like be so fr

4/5 - Q3 tripped me up

A hypothesis that states A causes B is a correlation. It is not an explanation. It is merely providing us with an observation. Do not confuse that causal relationship (correlation) for its explanation.

LOL - this is more of a note for myself

Literally selected the correct answer first then second guessed myself and then got it right on the BR :(

took me 4mins but I got it right; I diagramed it out but relied mostly on intuition to figure it out :/

got it right but it literally took me forever

5/5 - but I literally had to write each out and break it down before I answered the question which took time...

7/8 - could be better

5/5 - its starting to make sense!!

Referring example in previous video:

"Some cultivars of corn are much more related morphologically to sorghum than to most other cultivars of corn."

Step 1: A v. B:

A - Sorghum

B - Other cultivars of corn

Step 2: Quality or Characteristic

"Related morphologically"

Step 3: Winner

Sorghum

Why? Because Sorghum are much more related morphologically to cultivars of corn; than other cultivars of corn.

if only the LSAT was just breaking down sentences it would be such a breeze

5/5 yay!!

Got all 3 correct!! but I just hope i begin to increase the speed in which I answer these questions

4/5 - question 2 threw me off. but now i understand that i was trying to force a conclusion to support the premises but they was no conclusion because she was basically listing facts

5/5

5/5

Not every mammal is suitable to keep as a pet. After all, tigers are very aggressive and can cause serious injuries to people.

Premises: tigers are very aggressive and can cause serious injuries to people.

Conclusion: not every mammal is suitable to keep as a pet.

Therefore, the claim (premises) that tigers are aggressive and can injury people, supports the claim (conclusion) that not all mammals are suitable pets.

I could not find a parking spot at the mall, so the mall must be busy.

Premise: I could not find a parking spot

Conclusion: the mall must be busy

Therefore, the premise offers evidence for the conclusion.

To summarize: 1. the aim of an argument is to persuade. 2. an argument is premise(s) + conclusion. 3. the more the premises support the conclusion, the stronger the argument will be.
