#help Why is it that the referenced text doesn't "clarify the meaning of the conclusion," per answer choice A? I'm having trouble distinguishing "supports the conclusion" vs. "clarifies the conclusion." Would it be more accurate to say that the second half of the first sentence, "they can be manipulated in order to mislead," is a better example of clarifying something?
@JhovannyAcevedo That's actually a real thing in fonts! That's why some fonts are more dyslexic-friendly than others, because you can differentiate the individual letters easier. I don't have dyslexia but I've always really liked the original LSAT font. The new one's letters look way more similar, so though it may be quicker to read, I'm also not understanding it as well. I'm actually pretty worried I'll read things incorrectly now. At least I've got a month to get used to it!
I get that Lesky's perspective is different from the other two authors', but I don't really understand how Lesky sees a tension between autonomy and divinity. I'm reading that Agamemnon is indeed pushed one way by Artemis, but he wants to pursue that action anyway. Doesn't that mean that his desires accord with Artemis' direction? Or does the author mean that Agamemnon is struggling with his own selfish desire for victory versus his parental instinct, as well as being compelled by the gods to do a certain action that is morally wrong? #help
Is there perhaps a page listing different types of principles, like this lesson does? It might be nice to have as a reference. #feedback
My conditional reasoning and diagramming skills are usually solid. I often do it the same way it's done in the LR lesson videos.
However, looking at my wrong answer list, a significant chunk of the questions are tagged with conditional reasoning! This suggests to me that my basic cond R skills are alright, but I get stumped by the ways the LSAT tries to trick us, especially on level 4 and level 5 questions.
How can I improve? Where can I get practice with advanced conditional reasoning, and why is the LSAT so good at making cond R difficult?
Does anyone else hate the phrasing "hunting virtually eliminated predators"? As in, are you hunting predators that were already virtually eliminated? 😬
Do you think it's better to include questions you got correct, but spent too much time on, in blind review? I find it makes me second guess whether my answer was right. I end up trying to justify answer choices which I was sure were incorrect.
How do you use blind review? Any tips for making the most out of blind review?
I'm confused how to use the wrong answer journal on here. I use bookmarking extensively and try to write notes for every question I got wrong, and some that I get correct. It helps a lot. I try to review every day. I'd like to be able to read my notes separately, without having to click on a question and then view its respective notes -- I don't know how to do that yet.
