For question 12, E is also wrong because passage A is exactly concerned with the origins of honeybee dance, but rather an historical account of the scientific inquiry into the mechanism by which the communication happened.
Same here. It's my final semester and I'm trying to finish strong and also improve my resume as an undergrad
Interesting question. D is ultimately wrong because it ignores the three part correlation that is posited in the stimulus. Even if we correct D for its minor errors (misplaced set under consideration, comparative conclusion which is consistent with a balanced disposition), it is still consistent with the correlation, especially since its possible that those being referred to in the answer choice might not even fall into the set of those with permanently high blood pressure and heart disease, therefore ignoring a crucial part of the correlation that supports the argument's conclusion.
Best advice: these heuristics do not work, and when they did, it was probably coincidence. Eliminate answer choices for their substance, not their placement.
The answer for Question 24 is really weird. The first paragraph largely suggests that the failure to predict Uranus's orbit was as a result of the auxiliary assumptions made, even though Newton's laws were flawed. I understand it is the best answer of the bunch but it sounds factually inaccurate based on the passage.
In my experience you have to understand it intuitively
q.11
Contrary to what J.Y says, Taruskin does indicate that the artist themselves are part of the elite and support for that can be drawn from the excerpt: "high art...is produced by and for social and political elites." D is wrong because that characteristic is not extended to the middle class.
This question really highlights the beauty of the LSAT. WA(B) really tries to take advantage of our presuppositions that new technology is generally more flexible and easier to use than old one. It also tries to make us conflate fact and belief, in that advertisements are not accurate descriptions of reality, something we are generally aware of, but take for granted in Logical reasoning where we rarely question the truth of premises but hone in on their relevance to the conclusion.
If your scores are great, you should have a chance
