Does anyone know where we can find specific LSAT questions that we starred? I have been looking but could not find them. I appreciate any and all help! :)

The reason I left out answer choice A is because it said "any other method" which I thought was too strong. Why do we ignore the strength of that statement in this case?
I was thinking something similar but different. If we assume everyone in Beethoven's time consumed mercury, that does not eliminate the possibility that mercury caused Beethoven's deafness. Not everyone who consumes something that causes a condition will then get that condition.
I was stuck between answers B and D, but D cannot be right because the root of the issue is not whether mercury poisoning itself causes deafness, rather that mercury itself is correlated to venereal disease (to treat it) and venereal disease causes deafness. For not addressing the root of the issue, D can be eliminated. I still have trouble with addressing the assumption B makes though.
Thank you so much! This makes a lot more sense now.
Is anyone else confused how the last premise is a historical fact?
Would it be beneficial for me to watch the RC Method Overview, The Reading Process Part 1 and Part 2? Does the overviews have any of the skills not included in the old science passages? I just want to manage my time well with what I can study before I straight away into PTs and drills.
Thank you for letting me know that. I think I am going to take a practice test, and if I am seriously lacking in an RC section, go back and watch the new material.
I just finished the science passages just to be told the science passages are "deprecated" and are being removed. I am studying for the September 2024 LSAT. A heads up would have been nice :(
For these type of questions, will it ever be possible that a LSAT question will have us explain a phenomenon with an answer that in the real world is blatantly false? Like it would make sense to the question, but if you knew enough about such topic, you would know that answer still is not correct.
Thank you so much! This was super helpful.
For question 10, could we conclude that Mr. White grows weed and cooks meth based on the relationship between LSD and meth, or can we simply not make any conclusion on the weed and meth?
Hello, for 6.1, is there a significant difference between "context" and "contextual argument?" I thought context does not contribute to the argument, so the label "contextual argument" for the first two sentences of the prompt makes me a little confused.
Something that helped me is thinking of the LSAT like a game. When you play a game, especially multiplayer, things are too fast for you to have self-doubt. Before a game, you don't think about "Will I be able to hit the ball in the goal?" or "I wonder if I will be .12 seconds above or below the other team in the race." You think of how you can do your best and prepare for the mindset of doing that best. Preparing the mindset, just in the same way you prep for capture the flag or finding the most loot while defending your base, is the best way to overcome self-doubt (as you are eliminating the space for it). Hope this helps!
