I second the comment above! Great webinar. No nonsense and straight to the point.
I'll be there Tuesday and Saturday!
Hmm. I've only uploaded 35-minute sections thus far, but, even with the university wifi, it still takes me a good hour or so. Genuinely curious to know how others are uploading full-length PTs online. I can't imagine staying at X location all day waiting for my PT to upload.
I go to the local university and use their wifi. Always works for me!
So...we're not doing a BR today? Waited 10 mins for the organizer to start the meeting.. Hopefully the BR for PT 48 on Saturday is still on. Would appreciate confirmation!
I'll be there for the Saturday BR! Hope I'm not the only one there like I was last time -.-
@.m
I am looking out for my fellow fellow 7sagers, because I do not want them to be misled by poor advice.
Agreed.
On the call right now! Is anyone else joining?
Will be there Saturday
Just inputted all of the dates in my calendar. Looking forward to join on the next session!
"Not many" allows for the possibility of "some". Some person having property A is consistent with not many people having property A where "many" takes on a value of greater than one and "some" takes on a value of at least one.
Not many people have property A.
It is not the case that many people have property A.
It is not the case that at least two people have property A.
Some person (only one) has property A.
Let's say property A refers to being fat.
Not many people are fat.
Some person is fat.
Imagine being in a room of three people. Two are thin. One is fat. Not many people in this room are fat (it is not the case that at least two people in this room are fat). But, some person is fat (it is the case that one person is fat).
Consider these two statements:
(1) A society that has some crimes has some laws
(2) A society that has many crimes has many laws
Now consider the following: A society that has no laws has no crimes.
Your task is to describe a circumstance in which either (1) or (2) could be false given the information above:
Could you describe a circumstance in which (1) could be false? No. "A society that has some crimes has some laws" is the contrapositive of "A society that has no laws has no crimes".
Could you describe a circumstance in which (2) could be false? Yes. Two crimes could be instances of breaking one law.
This was from PT 1.4.21 where (D) and (E) correspond to (1) and (2), respectively. What does this tell us? The LSAC does not treat “some” and “many” as equivalent. (E) is incorrect. And it is incorrect precisely because "many" must take on a value of greater than one. They also do not mean the same thing in ordinary language, as the posters above have demonstrated.
Give yourself a break and come back to it when you're fresh.
Does anyone plan on being on the Saturday call?
