I do both! I think if you're not particularly stressed about time, it's a good idea to skim through the information. Some of it is largely the same, but sometimes I catch something interesting and write it down in my notes. It normally adds maybe a minute or 2 tops to each section, and helps me make sure I'm absorbing the information I just watched.

It seems like strong arguments have premises that outline all possible options, and then eliminate them until there is only one clear and definitive conclusion remaining, so it must be true with no room for doubt.

Conclusions will sometimes have an indicator word that lets you know that something is a conclusion. In this case, "therefore" is used as the indicator for the conclusion. Another great test is the "Why" test where you ask yourself why the conclusion you selected is true. Is there any evidence to suggest that Walt is a member of the vacation club? No other claims in the argument support that, so we can assume it is another premise to give us additional context. However, there is support for the conclusion that Walt must have offered the requisite propitiations to Mickey Mouse. Hope this makes sense :) You'll definitely get the hang of it with more exposure, the more you practice, the easier it will be to spot.

Hi! So both the premise and conclusion are claims. The premise is just the claim that supports the conclusion, while the conclusion is the claim that is being supported. The LSAT will ask you about the relationship between both claims (the premise and conclusion). And you're correct, the premise(s) would act as supporting evidence for the conclusion(s).
