What is the point of the first sentence then? It threw me off and don't understand the point of it.

I got this question wrong and chose D because I thought it meant saying the chair of the department is also on the textbook committee of the actual textbook company, implying a conflict of interest.

Hi i am a bit confused with the logic diagramming if somebody could please explain to me why it is diagrammed this way and not with "some" relationships. Thanks.

/Sleep -> RT OR LT (or both)

Solution is simply the contrapositive

/RT AND /LT -> Sleeping.

Skim AC for the words "or" in premises and "and" in conclusion"

'm assuming then that those other ones you mentioned, those are not conditional indicators right? And if so, are these other examples of terms you've encountered in other flaw type questions that were "cookie cutter" and similar to the flaw in this question? Thanks.

I've noticed with these questions it is most common for the other person in the argument to either disagree with an assumption they make, one of their premises or their conclusion. In this case it is an assumption.

While the negation of all could be "not all", it also logically makes sense to negate all with "some .. not". This is exactly what JY did here. The negation he used wasn't just "some", it was "some.. not" hence why he says some involuntary actions are aware (negation of unaware = aware). To make more sense imagine I say "All cats are nice" you could negate it by saying "not all cats are nice" and you could negate it by saying "some cats are not nice" which is perfectly fine as well.

Hi everyone, It might be a little late but I would like to share how I've handled ramadan LSAT studying so far. And with the strategy I am about tell you about, I've actually been more productive than I was prior to Ramadan. You will have to adjust your sleeping pattern which might be hard initially but it helps a lot. During suhoor, I drink a large coffee to get me going. Fajir here in Edmonton is around 3am and maghreb is around 10pm. Then I go to the university right after fair and study all the way until around noon which is when I start getting fatigued and hungry. I take a quick power nap which helps me get a couple more hours done before the hard hunger pains come. Usually around 2pm I stop studying, go home and sleep until maghreb which is about 6-7 hours of sleep. Then, I break my fast, relax, go to taraweeh then take a small nap of about an hour until suhoor and repeat. Also, I assume this method depends on if you work or if you are in school also. For me luckily, I took the summer off to study for the LSAT so it wasn't a problem. I found myself being much more productive than I was before because right after suhoor till late morning, I do not hungry or fatigued yet so that Isn't an issue i had to deal with. Also, during the early morning, there is not much happening in life (social media, nobody to talk to) so it was very easy to not get distracted. Also, I felt like sleeping 6-7 hours in the day to get the essential hours of sleep to function, relaxing afterwards and eating, then take another swift nap before going to study really helped me from getting fatigued versus the usual one shot 8 hours of sleep I was doing prior to ramadan. I hope this helped! Good luck to everyone and Ramadan Mubarak.

Hey Dillon, would you mind extending me by like 24-48 hours so I can call my credit card company and get them to raise my limit so that I can pay for all of the upgrades I want?

Tough decision, but for the best.

It's with a heavy heart that I've decided to postpone this whole cycle, I'm going forego writing the December 2016 LSAT in favour of writing the September 2017 LSAT. I'm scoring in my current target range of the mid to high 150s, which would comfortably get me admission into the Canadian schools I wanna go to, but my GPA is so high (3.94) that I feel it would be an injustice to get an LSAT that low. Therefore, I've decided I want to go to Harvard, or Yale, and my GPA is at those standards, but I want to get an LSAT of a similar calibre to that of my GPA.

I've decided to take a little bit of time off, and then start fresh in a few weeks and write in September 2017. I'm going to upgrade to Ultimate + and extend all the way until September 2017.

Inspiration came from Alex Divine's post a while back, HLS, here we come.

To me, it's not completely understandable; realistically, you just have to ask yourself: "what's more important? Salah, or LSAT?" For me, and I would assume for both of you, too, it would be salah. So I don't see it as justifiable to miss Salah, and make it up later in favour of accommodating the LSAT. Rather, I'd try and maneuver around the constraints of the LSAT in order to accommodate salah.

Montaha, I'm cool with this, but we need actual evidence that such a ruling doesn't solely apply to a traveler. I'll look into it and I'll reply on this thread for anyone else in the future.

Yeah I know of combining the prayers, but that ruling only follows when the person is travelling from his home city/town. I won't be travelling away from my city, so I don't think I can join Dhuhr and 'Asr. But realistically, I think I should be good if I finish before 2.

Muslim Prayer and LSAT

Hey guys,

I'm Muslim, so I observe the 5 daily prayers. I'm concerned that the LSAT next Saturday will interfere with the midday prayer (Dhuhr), and I can't miss it. The window to pray opens at around 12:15 PM and ends at like 2:00 PM. Do you guys think I'll have time to pray after the exam, assuming it starts at like 9:00 AM, and if not, how would I go about praying during the break? It only takes like 5-7 minutes to pray, but it'll be hard to find a location to pray during the break. Should I just ask one of the proctors to take me somewhere in the building so I don't get in trouble for leaving the vicinity of test area? Has anyone else had a similar concern/experience? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PT C2

Is PT C2 considered as representative of modern LSATs as the exams in the 70s are?

So no video explanations for 79 at all? Or will they just come after the December 3rd LSAT?

Older Games Harder?

Does anyone else find the games in the earlier PTs (35 and under) to be harder than the newer ones? In the 70s, the first 3 games are always so easy, and then there's just 1 really hard one at the end. But the earlier exams I feel are so much harder. No clue why.
