I'm really impressed by the generosity of those who are revealing their scores. Such disclosure is helpful to us fellow students who are following behind you. Thank you.

Thanks, JY, for saying that you're not entirely sure that the premise supports the conclusion in the stimulus. That was seriously bothering me...I think a better conclusion would be that the values are *changed,* not *undermined.*

Could you make a case for (A)? Here's my reasoning: What effect does lack of exercise have on aging? It allows it (doesn't slow process). What effect does taking a drug have on aging? It allows it (doesn't slow process). So aren't these the same?

Can someone explain why (C) is wrong? Isn't (C) just a re-wording of the principle described in (B)?

We could also mention that the last sentence is a sub-conclusion (following the sentence immediately before it). ie, (Because) Reason plays an essential role in any moral behavior, (Therefore) Only behavior that is intended to be in accordance...can be considered moral behavior.

Further, their recommendation for that 3 month period is 3 hours/day.

I'm getting that too with Chrome. I'm assuming it's transient, so not stressing too much. My work-around is to navigate away from the lesson page, then return. When I restart, I fast-forward to where I was. But, yes, annoying.

Thank you, Nilesh for your reply! I'll check them out.

Hi, I'm not sure if I'm shooting for Feb or June 2014. (Ideal timing for my life right now would be an April exam, sheesh.) I'll make that call at the beginning of Jan (obviously by Jan 7, 2014). If I go through all the material and "use up" my PTs as if I were writing in Feb, but then do not register, am I hampering myself for June? What level of studying (hours per week) is typically needed to keep the high-scoring momentum going?

I've wrestled with nervousness/anxiety in the past and do not want to feel excessive time pressure. (Yes, I realize the irony of what I just said. I do understand that "managing time stress" (both acute and chronic) is a necessary skill that the LSAT and law school both test. I'm just trying to find my most effective pressure sweet spot here people!)

If, by January, I realize that I will not write Feb, would it be better to preserve unseen PTs by re-doing old ones until April/May? Is there such a thing as stretching your studying out over too many months?

I would say that, no, we cannot conclude with certainty that "A causes B." We can only conclude that "A causing B" is more probable (given the conditions you cite) than it would be if these conditions weren't true. My 2 cents.

A few months into studying I was driving and saw a license plate. My first thought was, "No, no! T can't be next to V."

Hey JY you said that if (D) said "IN as large as female" (rather than what it does say, "larger than those of the average male..."), then choice (D) would be a contender because it would attack the premise. ie, weaken the correlation between male IN size and disease X.

But I think the conclusion itself wouldn't be weakened by that hypothetical (tweaked) (D) because the conclusion reads "...size of IN determines whether or not male cats can contract disease X" NOT "...do contract disease X." ie, maybe female-sized IN in males is necessary but not suffficient.

That's how I ruled out (D).

Thanks, syn_101. So are the December questions harder? Or does Dec attract a lower raw-scoring cohort? Ha, I'm sure there's a correlation/causation question in here somewhere ;)

I think Steven is asking where he can find the PT games sections themselves, not JY's video explanations. Steven, if I understand correctly, PTs are proprietary materials owned by LSAC. You can find a rare few for free by snooping around online, but mostly you have to purchase them (either from LSAC directly or via a third party, eg, a course such as this one). That's why the questions themselves aren't printed in JY's video explanations.

7sage is definitely the best course out here, so I'd recommend purchasing a membership- you'll get the PTs bundled in!
