Of course there are no magic recipes, and I am by no means saying that this is an absolute, but the following has helped me:

Ditch social media. It trains you to un focus.

Ditch series. They foster passiveness on your brain.

All that extra time you now have? Read a novel and practice not turning your attention off each time for a little longer.

Improving your focus should help you a lot. Once you have achieved this, you can start polishing your abilities based on the types of question you are prone to miss.

I would just sleep, keep hydrated and eat well during the next 2 days. May be do 8 LR questions, 1 passage and 1 game each day just to keep your mind active. I am taking the test on Tuesday and that´s my plan. On Monday I might just go through a couple of concepts to have them fresh for the next day and nothing else.

I chose B as well but then I realized there is an other issue with B that I think is more obvious than the one that is being pointed out in the video. B says that in a well functioning democracy ANY bill that is favored by most people and is opposed by influential people, will pass into law; but that is actually inaccurate. What if it is favored by most people but it violates basic human rights? For instance, let´s say the majority are racists and are favoring a discriminatory law against minorities? Well according to the stimulus the law wouldn´t pass because it would be violating basic human rights. I think that is a much easier explanation on why B is incorrect. It is inaccurate.

Exactly, he states the conclusion as “Low levels of Galactose enzyme that causes cancer”, but 1) Nowhere in the stimulus is stated that Galactose is an enzyme. It just says that it is contained in yogurt 2) The conclusion in the stimulus doesn´t say “Low levels of Galactose enzyme that causes cancer” but rather that HIGH levels of Galactose cause cancer. This HIGH carcinogenic Galactose level is apparently caused by LOW levels of the enzyme. So you have the enzyme on one hand, which you need to process Galactose, and Galactose on the other which in HIGH levels produces cancer. So the argument assumes that LOW levels of the enzyme causes HIGH levels of Galactose, which causes cancer.

I think there might be a mistake in the explanation here: JY speaks about how the argument correlates a low level of Galactose enzyme with cancer, when it is actually correlating cancer with a low level of enzyme that breaks Galactose, producing high levels of Galactose. It actually correlates cancer with low levels of enzyme and high levels of Galactose, not low ones.

LOL I chose D because I thought that it was actually blocking an alternative explanation for the increase in productivity. I thought, well, if workers in group A did take more vacation days, may be they were better rested and thus more productive, therefore blocking that alternative explanation would strengthen the argument. Still laughing

Well, I can only conclude C←s→F from C←s→/F if I assume that Not all C are /F. I guess it´s a fair assumption, from the way the stimulus is written "Some C fail to be F" but it is not necessarily true, since may be not only some but all C fail to be F. I guess it is the same reasonable assumption you make when you go from C←s→/F to C‑m→F, you are assuming that is not the case that C→/F.

Sorry! I wrote the conclusion of the stimulus wrong, as it is W←s→F as you pointed out.

As regards the premise of the stimulus, instead of thinking it as C‑m→F I wrote exactly what the stimulus said C←s→/F . I can conclude from that, that also C←s→F, so that then allows me to conclude W←s→F.

Is that chain of thoughts OK???

There is a mistake in the explanation of answer choice C: JY says treats "some painters are dancers" as if it was a premise, but it is actually the conclusion as indicated by the word "since" that follows, signaling than the next 2 affirmations are the premises.

So, C´s structure would be:

P←s→M←s→D

_

P←s→D

This structure mirrors perfectly the stimulus if you take the other part of the set that JY presents as C‑m→F . That´s to say, if instead of saying C‑m→F, you say C←s→/F (that is actually what the stimulus is expressly saying). Taking this into consideration you get this structure which is perfectly mirrored by answer choice C

W←s→C←s→/F

_

W←s→/F

You can replace it by "the way something is". Answer choice D would therefore read: "It bases a firm conclusion about the way something is in the present on somewhat speculative claims about the way something will be in the future.

It is like saying: Hey, your conclusion is wrong because you are affirming something about how the way something is in the present (that would be the correctness of the critics´evaluation) based upon mere speculations about how something will be in the future.

This answer choice would be right if, for example, instead of arguing that the critics were right because the paintings finally re sold for a higher price, it was based on the fact that it is possible thay the rest of the artist´s paintings burnt in the near future, and therefore those paintings would be the last ones of the artist to remain in existance.

34 turning 35 in May here! I am an Argentine lawyer working full time in the federal judiciary of my country. We got this people! Age is just a number!

Take into account that the 4th section might not be LR, while on pts it will always be. Therefore, pts' results might differ a bit as you are getting double scored on LR while during test day, you won't. I am also taking the june lsat. International test taker here, so if I have to re take, I will be forced to wait until October. Hope not!
