I thought c was correct because I don't see the logical relation in the analogy. The argument never stated that immersing yourself in the country is necessary to perfect a language, just that many students do it, so how can the fact that we can not travel to Ancient Greece support the conclusion?
if this question stem was an inference question instead would b be correct? I assumed b was right because the author is essentially the whole argument saying that these injunctions don't work unless in the case of documents. I guess it wasn't explicitly stated though so I can see why it is incorrect here, but im wondering if it was a mss/inference question instead
im confused why doesnt the stimulus saying "violated these rules" mean violated both? how can it mean at least one rule?
I will be writing the LSAT in 3 weeks and it seems I have almost burned through all the LR and RC sections/drills. I'm considering editing my prep tool setting to start using the excluded older tests, but I'm unsure if getting used to the older style right before my test would disadvantage me? I don't mind redoing old LR sections if people find it helpful, but I'm unsure if redoing RC sections would be helpful since I usually remember some of the answers. Let me know if you guys have any suggestions!
Im confused because isnt E attacking the premise? The stimulus says birds with dense blood vessels HAVE to be warm blooded. Also, I assumed that just because a gene is responsible for something does mean it produces it.
im very confused because the only reason I thought B was incorrect was its use of "undomesticated"
Im confused I thought C was correct because the authors entire argument behind clinical equipoise is that theoretical equipoise is too strict as an ethical standard because few trials could commence and C is essentially contradicting that by stating the problem runs in the opposite direction?? we need more strictness not less because ethical oversight has been decreasing under this theoretical model?
I'm confused by E because I thought just turnover occurring doesnt mean it is complete meaning majority of fish could still be at the surface even if some have begun to migrate deeper
I thought B was wrong because I thought it was flipped since the arguments order was confusing a required condition (only if convicted) for a sufficient condition (if convicted). I guess I was overthinking and order doesn't actually matter? Confusing a sufficient for a required is the same as confusing a required for a sufficient?
@Asma That definitely sounds like an exercise I would benefit from, thank you for the help! Do you also have any advice for when I should start timing myself when drilling? I've been delaying it until I get my accuracy up, but don't know when would be a good place to start, or if I should just start now?
@GnatTaylor I have been mapping my translations but I actually haven't really compared them to the 7sage videos and usually only focus on the questions I got wrong, so I'll definitely try that out. Thank you for the advice!
@AriVilker1 I have, yes! It definitely helped a LOT in making the reading portion feel smoother and more effective, especially the low res summaries. I feel like the issue now though is, instead of going into the questions feeling absolutely lost, I feel pretty confident and then am shocked to later see my score 🥲 Thank you for the reminder on main point questions though!
I've been studying for a month and half now and have been able to get my LR from -10 to around -3, but my RC has consistently been around -8 (untimed) with very little improvement. Does anyone have any advice on studying more effectively? I feel like with LR the foundations I had to learn drastically helped but with RC I might just not be approaching it properly? I've heard a lot of suggestions about mindset, staying engaged, predicting the next sentence, etc. but I think my issue is less about strategy and more fundamental. I've just purchased a RC textbook so hopefully that will help :')
I had a lot of trouble understanding why B isn't the answer but this helped me: Even if every single kid was watching these programs with their parents, it would still disproportionately affect the children watching the more violent shows and therefore help explain the statical relationship. That is because the behaviour in a level 1-2 program is less violent than the behaviour in a 3-5 program. Think of it like the parent's presence normalizing or "legitimizing'" talking back vs. normalizing assaulting someone.
