Hello, I'm planning to take the February test. I am currently reading through LSAT Trainer and PowerScore as well as going to school full-time. I am not confident enough about Logic Games and am considering registering for one of 7Sage prep course. The two courses in contention are Starter and Premium.Though the Trainer is immensely helpful with Logical Reasoning, I find Logic Games difficult to grasp. Which course would be ideal considering this time frame and circumstance? Suggestions and comments welcomed. Thank you!
I struggled with question 5 and watched JY's explanation multiple times. I hope this post will be helpful to anyone who is struggling with this question.
The question asks us to select the analogy that parallels Davis' studio procedure: Davis limits spontaneity ("loose improvisational...") during the late 60s by introducing electric keyboard and rock-style beats. Important line from passage: "growing use of studio editing to create jagged soundscapes" line 37-8.
Davis recorded improvisations from musicians only to EDIT them into finished pieces.
We should anticipate that the analogy will include at least two actors: Davis and musician, characteristics: loose improv/increased control of production (line 37-8: studio editing).
A) I chose this answer choice because it is attractive and because it includes the characteristic of improv. Yet, retrospectively, improv/ spontaneity is NOT a major concern, it is rather the process of editing the improvs that comprises the heart of Davis' procedure. Answer choice A does not say what will become of the show after the comedians act out their parts and this after-effect is crucial to the analogy.
B) This is easier to eliminate because there is only one actor present and moreover, it lacks the condition of "editing/controlled"
C) This, too, can be easily eliminated because we were never told that Davis held private rehearsals.
D) Though this was not apparent to me at first, answer choice D does include all of the conditions we anticipated: the artist is Davis, the photographers are the musicians, assigned themes are the base script, and ASSEMBLE is the EDIT, and of course the pictorial collage is the finished product.
E) Davis never pick one song over the other, he rather (and according to the passage) picks parts of the improv and stitches them with other parts of other artists' improvs to create the finished product.
