Although I understand that we're trying to find the flaw in the analogy with AC C, can we assume that few and many are actually different?

#help I’ve heard that to start scoring above 170, this process needs to happen in your head. Any tips on getting there? Or is it really just practice makes perfect?

I called them recently from Australia and asked if I could take it in November even though it isn't offered here. They said I theoretically could, but that it's unlikely, given the time difference, that anyone would be "on-call" to proctor me and so I probably wouldn't be able to. You should give them a call, though- I'm not too sure if what I was told is accurate!

I would call LSAC if you're worried. They're really really understanding and will definitely let you know. Also, prior scores are definitely not taken into consideration when making their decision; LSAC really just looks at your doctors' note.

Hi! Me too! Averaging +170; my April LSAT was a 169 and retaking!

I picked D during my timed take and now understand how this question addresses a time issue, which is what makes E the correct answer.

However, I actually think that D could be descriptively accurate and fails as a flaw.

If the 3rd civilization actually did create these structures first, it could be that they influenced ONLY the Omoro and never had been in contact with Swahili people.

The conclusion could still hold up in that case (3rd civ influenced the Omoro; the Omoro influenced the Swahili) and it doesn't violate any of the assumptions in the argument.

#help are we just assuming that "deep carbon deposits dating from the formation of the earth" are in the crust? If so, why/how are we making that assumption?

I disagree with categorizing Q27 as a weaken question. It makes more sense to take Author B's "reasonable response" to Author A to mean "what would someone defending graduated tax systems say to A's argument in supporting flat regime as fair?"

Author B can't defend graduated tax systems by saying "well, your system allows for higher earners to avoid tax as well!" Author A's argument would still remain true.

AC B is a much better way of defending Author B's position in that he's removing blame away from graduated tax systems, i.e. defending graduated tax systems.

I don't believe if this is the same thing as understanding 27 as a weakening question even though JY's explanation of why AC B is correct is the same. Still, this way helped me understand why A is clearly wrong and why B is correct.

I've just getting their busy dial tone.

lolol I couldn't even take it???? the server crashed????????? And I'm having trouble getting in touch with LSAC. Anyone else in the same boat?

Read outside of the LSAT. Anything and everything, just read it. While doing your leisure reading, actively read. Really engage with the text and be inquisitive. For example, I’m reading American Pastoral right now; not really a text that lends itself to LSAT reading, but I’m still always asking, why is the author using this language? Why does Merry do this?... Training yourself to read like this will help when actually doing the LSAT.

Also, make it a habit at the end of each paragraph to think to yourself “what was the point of this and how does it tie into what I read in the previous paragraph?” At the end of each passage, make sure you know the main point, structure and purpose of the text.

Also, one of the sages (Christopher, I think) told me to try reading slowly, recapping, and then turning to the questions without going back to the passage- this REALLY helped. Especially if you have good short term memory, this could really be useful to you. Using this, I was finally getting done with my reading on time, and even with 2-3 minutes remaining.

This could also depend on how you’re approaching the questions. RC is like LR in long form. You have to think of all of the questions like inference questions, unless they’re explicitly weaken or strengthen.

Good luck!
