Whenever we are given [P→C] argument. I tend to see [C→P] as a correct strenthening answer choice. I understand that such answer choices try to a create connection between P and C, but isn’t this a negation flaw?
I'm unsure how you can justify "much" in 13 E. #help

The answer, [B], isn't a [C→P] but rather a comparative statement, saying you learn more about a spot when you spent a lot of time there compared to when you only spent a little amount of time.
Technically the stimulus can be put as [P→C] but so can all valid arguments. I wouldn't even consider this a question where translating to lawgic is helpful. Its more of a argument by analogy with the important part being that both tourism(T) and reading(R) a new book share the goal of wanting to "enlarge understanding rather than simply to acquire information".
It argues because its better to stop and smell the roses while travelling, it is also better for book readers to "stop and smell the roses" by not prioritizing quantity of books read but rather fewer book and spend more time with each.
Answer choice [B] strengthens this by adding additional support for the shared goal (enlarge understanding) between T and R.
Thank you very much!!!

without assuming you did the translations correct, it's hard to see what you're asking for.
Got any specific examples?
For example, PT67 Section2 #3
Thank you for your help! :)

we need a time indicator in the necessary part!!!
For (E), the statement applies to both low-fare airlines and major airlines. So it can't harm our argument.
Four simple steps! (1) Spot the new word in the conclusion: "meaning". (2) Go find "meaning" among the given answer choices: only C and E are left. (3) Eliminate by looking at the details: C is eliminated because "readers agreeing/disagreeing" is irrelevant to the argument. We care about "poem expressing contradictory ideas", not "readers expressing contradicting ideas to the author of the poem". (4) Pick your answer: E! For your conclusion to make sense, you need the readers to have a correct idea.
Are there any ways to quickly solve this type of question??

This stimulus presumes that things discussed in the stimulus are biconditional & that’s the idea that we need to find in the correct answer choice!
I struggled so much, and now I get it.
There are two points that we can attack within the stimulus.
1) “Correlation. Therefore, causation.”
2) “If causation, X.”
A,B,C,E try to attack the second point but fail to do so because they are not relevant to our causation.
D is a correct weakener in that it attacks the first point mentioned above.
I hope this helps anyone who struggled with this seemingly challenging question!
@ Thank you!
@ Thank you for your concern :)
I was wondering if I have to reach out to schools to let them know that I got XXX score on the Jan LSAT, or does LSAC reports the updated information automatically?
Thank you all for your help!

We are comparing btw "passenger in the vehicle (who) will USUALLY be quiet or even provide helpful warnings" and "driver on a cell phone" to make a conclusion that "conversing on a cell phone while driving is more dangerous than CONVERSING WITH A PASSENGER in the vehicle". So I felt (D) helps to close the gap between the premise and the conclusion by making that 'usually' to 'all'. Can someone please help? Thank you.

but the stimulus doesn't say that the participants consumed lycopene through fruits and vegetables. are we assuming that people ate fruits and vegetables over the 12-year period?

I've found that 7sage's digital format was pretty close to the actual testing experience. There was a collapse function as well as the opportunity to eliminate answer choices on the actual LSAC administered test. You can use your finger or a stylus on the actual test. I also found that the stylus/tablet was not always responsive, which was pretty frustrating during actual test. I had to switch my tablet after the break because I was not able to eliminate any answer choices (although I could select those answers if I wanted to). The second tablet I used worked much better. Good luck!
When you got a chance to swtich the tablet, did you have to restart taking the exam?

Why does the correct answer look more like a SA type rather than a NA type?

Is it valid to conclude
X →causes→ BP from
X →causes→ A →causes→ BP?
