I didn't like any of these answers. Skipped completely during timed and then got it wrong with BR. Still don't understand how D can be rejected.

Being picky with words would have gotten this question right. I'm not yet ready for that level.

I couldn't even explain how I could prevent this mistake in the future.

I'm reading all the comments and the so called flaw still doesn't make sense to me. What is the flaw? #help

Are you just not fatigued by the time you hit the end of the section? Perhaps developing more endurance will help.

I had no clue what a flaw of plurality was.

My thought was, how can you conclude that most residents prefer larger cities to smaller ones just because most selected the capital as best place to live? What if its what the city has to offer (that you could find in smaller cities) like restaurants and movies?

But thanks for the video, I learned something new.

Hi!

I have been working in the core curriculum for some time and there is something that I am not quite clear about conditional reasoning and its inferences.

What I do know is that IF A, THEN B contraposes(is that a word?) to IF NOT B THEN NOT A. I know this must be true.

But what about IF NOT B THEN A? Is this a cannot be true or a could be true? Does this statement negate the original statement?

Help!

I notice with comparative passages. The questions usually focus on passage B than passage A.

I never inferred why they used children instead of adults in the study. Is this the type of thinking that we have to do while reading under a timed exam?

I eliminated A because i didn't like the prescriptive "should" in the answer when the author didn't allude to what one should do. It didn't dawn on my that there could be other options that are least expensive. The passage sure didn't infer that these were the two only options. I can see on a harder question, this assumption would be tested and I probably would have gotten it wrong.

Maybe I am being too literal, but I felt there was a difference between the respondents of the survey (who they are are mysterious) and most citizens, I figured was members of a country. C didn't accurately describe these two groups for me and thats why eliminated.

I am curious to see an example of what an argument would look like for E to be the correct answer.

LSAT loves precise language. I thought the word games (line 54-55) was the same as grammar and idiomatic uses (answer choice D - question 13). They are not the same thing.

If you focus on the conclusion, its quite obvious why A is wrong.

The conclusion is saying that the ban on fishing is what explains the rebound in fish population for Q lake. But is the ban really the cause? What if there was another reason for why the fish did not continue to decline.

See, this has nothing to do with H lake. B describes it right. If no one really fished before, what was the ban supposed to do? B is correct.

It's definitely not perfect but the ideas are actually very interesting and it's a bold subject... insider non-trading is super interesting and original. I don't think I've ever heard someone give that perspective, or even point out that it's a potential problem. You would probably enjoy thinking about vaccine hesitancy through the same lens... applying a vaccine being the "active" and neglecting a vaccine being "passive," and the weight-on-conscience of each option in the case of a bad/good outcome. I think it's true that acting and having a bad outcome feels worse than neglecting to do something and having a bad outcome... it's all interesting. Thanks for sharing!

I was not asking for advice, as I have already applied in a previous cycle :) Good luck with your apps if you have any pending!

They were just sharing their thoughts. Which I presume was the intent of this post.

Blank, lined or graph paper is acceptable. I used graph paper (sue me) and two pilot gel pens.

Hello,

So on a PC I am able to press the button to get out of a full screen and revert back if needed, but I am unable to do so on a Mac or iPad. Could this be fixed? Does anyone else have this problem?

I feel like 7sage.com works better on a pc than a mac. Please help.

I go in a totally different mindset during a timed exam. I couldn't figure out if there is a connection of global warming and higher temperatures. Thus, I wasn't able to make an inference from the last sentence and the rest of the stimulus.

note: if you don't understand the stimulus, don't bother answering the question (or wasting time on the question).

This passage is manageable once you can keep track of the subject discussed and refer back and JY described:

p1: context - Theory of Plate Tectonics. Question: how can subduction occur in areas with little to no earthquakes?

p2: group of scientists propose its the nature of collision that establishes quiet zone. Plates move together

p3: scientist proposal has warning. Areas thought to have small risk of subduction may have earthquakes

Confirm action

Are you sure?
