This might not be good logic, but as soon as I realized that this had a normative conclusion "should," I immediately chose E). It's the only answer choice that has addresses the normative term. From what I have encountered thus far is that the LSAT likes to use descriptive premises to go from a normative conclusion - which is a classic trap. Addressing the normative conclusion helps build that bridge.

This sort of felt like a necessary assumption question. Had it initially but then changed it. Surprised it's a level 1.

Will most premises with causal chains such as this question and the previous question follow this kind of framework? I was between A and C and ultimately picked C) because I thought it was pointing out an assumption. I'm curious if in these types of "formal" causal chains 90% of the time it'll be a causal aspect (anti-inflammatory drugs/a-acid) that does not really have a tie to the conclusion and the correct answer choice will be the one that bridges that causal aspect (anti-inflammatory drugs/a-acid) to the conclusion.

@ said:

I would personally retake the test in April and apply for the next cycle. You will feel more confident in your score and your application

Hey Erin! Thanks for your advice and I agree I was leaning more towards the latter as well. Do you think I should keep or cancel my score. Or does cancelling look bad?

Cancel or Keep Nov. 2023 Score/Possibly Wait to Retake

Hi all! In need of some advice for canceling or keeping my score for November's test. I scored a 146 and now I am thinking of taking April's test instead of January to see significant improvement (which means I will probably not apply this cycle like I intended). Two questions (1) is it worth it to cancel - I believe I was not as prepared as I should have been coming in to the test and (2) Is it best to give myself more time to prepare for a better score or should I try again for January in hopes of scoring better and applying this cycle (168+)?
