Okay here's my two cents, on this seemingly ridiculously painful question.

First of all guys besides undertaking intensive lawgic, you can also USE the process of elimination from the premises/context of the question stem-WILLINGLY BREAKING A SPECIFIC LAW TO BRING ABOUT LEGAL REFORM

A. can be eliminated because Keisha protest- we don't know if she is breaking a law by doing so and didn't mention legal reform- just said seemingly brutal dictatorship

B. can be eliminated because once again, it didnt say she broke a specific law

C. The trap one. concern for others --> justified.. mistaken negation..

D.required to do so- act of justified civil disobedience. For one, she violated a specific law "deliberate violation of a law", and seek legal reform " by repeal of the law" and lastly matches the logic in the question stem: require-->>justified.

E. can be eliminated because once again, it didnt say she broke a specific law

Hi! As someone who went through so much turmoil who is aiming for high 165-170, I would like to offer some insights. For LR, looking at the most recent tests and their question type analysis- I think it's important to lock in your CONDITIONAL logic and CAUSAL skills, 13-14 of the questions from come each of these two types of reasoning (which encompasses question types like strengthen, weaken, principle, etc) Once you nail down these two fundamentals down then you should be getting at least -5. Then you can focus on others ones like parts of an argument and method of reasoning, etc.

I would also say try to understand why you get the questions wrong and look up all possible explanations for the correct and the incorrect answers, lsathack is a good site if you haven't check them out.

As for logic games, fool proofing is important but also combine different skills from different prep sources. Look up the official LSAT superprep book (their explanations will make you feel dumb but spot on helpful) and Manhattan logic games, they focus a lot on inferences and intuition. Avoid test and trial with LG answers as much as you can because they are so time consuming, although some questions you will have no choice but to do so. As for reading, my favorite, I would say- try to read as much as you can on your own on topics that you dread- and try to analyze them under lsat reading questions.

Tips with highlighting

Hello LSATers,

I'm wondering if you guys have any tips when it comes to highlighting for the test?

For me, I highlight when it comes to reading passages for key points. There are times in logical reasoning in which I highlight when the text is so dense or I need to do something active to wake my brain up. I heard that in logic games, you can highlight the master board, and add new information rather than making new game boards every question.. I really like that but it's risky when it comes to must be true questions when having multiple game boards set up is critical.

What are your thoughts when it comes to taking advantage of highlighters?
