Hi there, I finished the core curriculum and now I don't know how to proceed with the practice phase. I took a timed test and did worse than my diagnostic. I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the tools available for the practice phase and don't know how to utilize into a schedule. Is there somebody at 7 Sage I can talk to?
when did we learn to use parenthesis? without learning about parenthesis this became a chain where "some" comes after "all" and then cannot be chained. Does anyone know when we learned to add parentheses?
with pattern of reasoning questions is a contrapositive of stimulus not considered a similar pattern of reasoning?
i thought "some" can include "all" (depending on context) so how do we know that it doesn't here?
is it wrong to map the stimulus as a chain that follows the sentence structure of the stimulus?
stimulus:
abs > ct > sa
/sa>/ct >/sa
C
/ss > /a
a > ss
the way its diagramed in the video is confusing but maybe i need to revisit an earlier lesson
I'm confused because the videos are showing ways of answering questions that we haven't learned yet.
On the LSATs do we always take premises to be true?
Does this mean you cannot strengthen an argument by strengthening the premise?
I chose C to strengthen premise to then strengthen the argument.
how does diagraming a sentence for structural clarity help us with taking the LSAT?
Isn't the presence of sea supporting a 2nd subsidiary conclusion which is that it's a primary factor in the development of life. Isn't this then a subsidiary conclusion that is also a premise supporting the argument's conclusion that there is reason to believe that there may be life on Europa? Doesn't this mean that E could be right?
how is "almost every" inclusive of all?
