Hey WoodsCommaElle, thanks for your reply! It really clarified my understanding, and now I'm 100% sure of how to deal with "some" and "all!" :smile: You really wrote in a way that made everything easy to understanding, thanks so much again! :smile:
In the Core Curriculum we learned that “some” implies the possibility of “all.” But in a sentence like, “some of the lumber is cut to exact dimensions, some of it is not,” we have to exclude the possibility of some meaning “all,” is that right? Thanks!

#help So even if you cross out “only” in E, B is still the better answer choice. But I don’t get why that’s so. Saying that the reason to protect individuals of a species is because they are endangered (E) still implies that the survival of individual members of a species is important to the preservation of the species, since the first sentence of the stimulus states that being endangered is the reason why the survival of an individual member is more important, etc. That is, endangered species → importance of individual survival. So if you plug in the above sufficient condition into an answer choice to make a conditional, the necessary condition naturally follows, which is why, even if E merely states “endangered,” that statement is sufficient to bring about the inference that individual survival is important, which is why it doesn’t seem to make sense to cross out E (without the “only”) simply because it doesn’t refer to individual survival!
Making an error log of the type of errors that you're making and figuring out patterns might be helpful. Once you discover you're making a certain kind of error over and over, you could try focusing on avoiding it on the next prep test.
Hi! You improved by a lot, so good job! For me personally, breaking 170 meant I had to get LG down to -0 ~ -3. LG was my weakest section to begin with (I think I got only 10 LG questions right on my diagnostic), but I drilled LG by doing games for about two hours a day every day for a little less than a month until suddenly everything clicked one day. If LG is what's holding you back, I'd say focus on getting LG down, because that really is the easiest section to improve on! Hope this helped.
They just got back to me via email and confirmed I was scheduled! I think you're right, it probably has something to do with clicking the link. Thanks! :smile:
Has anyone got an email that says that you haven't scheduled a testing time yet? I scheduled my testing time using the password reset trick before the official scheduling window opened, and my ProctorU account has the countdown to my scheduled time running, but I got this email and am wondering if anyone else got it too.
Aww, thanks, that's nice of you! But nah, LR is kicking my ass too hard for that lol
Hey thanks for the info! Yeah, I agree with you on that. But I've been PT-ing in the 170s and want that extra push into consistently scoring in the upper 170s. Thanks for your advice! :)
Hi! I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but I don't know how to go about finding a good tutor online. The thing is, I'm currently in Asia right now so I have to take the time difference into account. Anyway, if you have any recommendations, please let me know! Thank you.
Wow I did that and it worked! Thanks so much!! :smiley:
So I'm trying to sign up for a ProctorU account from a non-U.S. institution, and my institution isn't listed. What do you do in this case? I've sent an email to LSAC but I was wondering if anyone here knows. Thanks!
#help For A, I translated it into its contrapositive, which would be (pattern → not all-top strategy). I assumed this fits the premises. The subjects thought they saw a pattern, and this lead them not to choose an all-top strategy. Could someone explain why the contrapositive is wrong for A? So confused. Thanks!
