Chicago LSAT -- June (In-Person)

Is anyone taking the LSAT in June in Chicago? If so, are you familiar with the proctoring location? Looks like it's in an office building. Does anyone have any experience testing there? Tried to look up more information, but did not really see much about the whole process in that specific building. Also, there were 3 different centers listed for Chicago in the same building at the same time... I just picked a random one that had my preferred date, but I don't know if one section is more preferred than the others. Let me know about your experiences!

@MichaelWright How often does this flaw come up on the test? There are so many flaws to learn and remember and it seems like a new one appears every drill.

Wait, now I'm confused. If Nighthawk isn't a part of the permanent collection, then if it were to be displayed, it would have to be on loan from a private collector. But I thought the museum stores do not sell prints of works on loan from private collectors, hence answer C being correct. So why would E be incorrect and the explanation being "it might be displayed, it might not be displayed, we don't know." If it's not in the permanent collection and the only other works displayed in the museum are loaned out, then why would the Nighthawk be displayed if it doesn't meet the two criteria?

i think what instantly made me eliminate D was "lap times" =/= "win more swim meets" but i'm no swimmer so i guess it only helped in this instance lol

i thought when you negate something, you can't do the opposite of the word, you have to do the contradiction of the word. so this was my diagramming:

material --> divisible

divisible -- > imperfect

material --> imperfect

--------------------------------------

spirit --> /material

if we were to take the contrapositive, we would negate both sides and flip them around the arrow. so

/imperfect --> /divisible

in english, i would say this as "if not imperfect, then not divisible."

yes not imperfect implies perfect but i thought we weren't supposed to do the opposite word. could you clear this up as to when we are allowed to use the opposite word instead of the negated word?

Wait, can someone explain why the phrase "the amount of aesthetic pleasure a diamond provides is relevant to the value it commands" doesn't justify the conclusion?

I feel like it goes hand-in-hand with the premise and conclusion? The conclusion was that they should be deemed of equal value, and if they both give the same amount of aesthetic pleasure, why would the necessary assumption not justify the conclusion?

@amara I felt that too, I was deciding between A and C but I chose A because C didn't sound like a rule to me

I have a bad habit of mis-reading questions where I don't acknowledge a keyword in an answer choice that makes or breaks the question. It has happened on quite a lot of questions, and when I look back, I'm not sure why I did not see the obvious keyword that made a question right or wrong.

I spent 3 minutes on this question, almost eliminating D because I did not see the word "not" after "could not" and thought that this was a very dumb answer choice. It was only re-reading it after 2 minutes when the other ACs didn't make sense is when I caught the "not."

Anyone else struggling with this?

I got the right answer by assuming that all pet stores were "independently owned."

However, the modifier was never presented in the first sentence. What if they are operated as chains, like Pet Smart or something like that? Why would I assume that all stores in West Galverton are independently owned if the context never mentioned it?

@KarenLuviano what others have said before was to write every single question you got wrong down on a physical notebook as well as the answer choices and write down why every answer is wrong except for the right answer. force yourself to understand why the answer is the answer because the concepts associated will be applicable to future questions
