JY, unless i'm missing something, I think there is a huge glaring error w/ B on the Main Point question (that I was lucky to catch during the test) which immediately eliminates it without further analysis. B mentions that the "speed and efficiency" progression may depend on BH research, but the passage NEVER mentions speed/efficiency as a primary concern. The only concern the passage explicitly seems to concern itself with is size in nanometers. Again, I could be missing something and probably am, but that for me immediately eliminated B once I went back and looked at the "factually accurate" part of the evaluation for B. Am i missing something? #help

I could really use some #help with some of these passages - I'm mostly scoring -1 to -2/3 on RC, and it's really bothering me. I know that often times I'm missing things because this stupid digital format (ridiculous that they force you to take it on a tablet) means I have a tough time deciding when to note-take on my paper and when to just highlight the stuff on the screen (for that matter, can you even highlight on the actual LSAT tablet?). Is there some official advice JY or someone else gives on when to take notes for this stuff and when not to? I'm legit torn on what to do and feel like I could be doing a lot better if I figured this out. #Help #help (appreciate it!)

#Help LSAT is in 9 days and I was acing my LR questions until the last few LSATs. Few questions:

1. Is it just me, or did LR get MUCH more difficult on the recent tests?

2. In this question, I understood C to be the correct answer because to me it does provide an alternative explanation that weakens the P=>C. Think about it this way: If its not uncommon for a painter to use a live model, then why does it preclude that another painter used Leo in his painting of the war, and therefore it wasn't Leo who painted the war painting? In fact, that perfectly explains it! Another guy painted him in the painting, and then Leo painted himself. So duh they would look the same? I don't understand why JY feels that the distinction of a self portrait makes a difference.

#help please!
