hey! i'm down to study! taking the April LSAT and currently working a 7-3 but i'm open to evening study sessions!!

i'm interested as well!!

sorry for the late reply! didn't realize i got a response 😅 didn't clear the cache but i did change the settings for the video player. so far, it looks like that worked but if not, i'll try following the other steps and email if i'm still running into issue. thanks a lot for your help!

thank you!

not sure if you're still accepting people but i'm down!

if anyone needs a full on explanation of MOR questions and common AC types (including common wrong answers), there are two really great explanations in the comment section of the first module in the v.1 curriculum for the MOR unit. sort the comments by "Most Likes" and those two are the first to show up!

thank you!

#help why would the mode of reasoning be causal and not principle/p-c based? i was able to select the correct answer by creating a rule connecting the premise to the conclusion.... so is it causal mainly because the conclusion says their efforts are ineffective?

#help which PT and question is this?

#help i'm at a loss here. i was in between B and E and went with B because of the wording. i can see now why E is correct (in that it's a bit clearer), but i'm still confused on how B doesn't address the fully qualified candidates who don't already work for Arvue ("Of all the candidates who do not already work for Arvue")...

congratulations on the progress!!! keep up the good work!!!

#help got this question correct, but was initially confused on the "only if" part of the principle outlined by the lawyer. iirc, "only if" is a group 2 necessary indicator, which would mean the information immediately following it would be considered the necessary condition... so were we meant to interpret "only if the computer is typically used in the operation of a business" as a necessary condition? or should we have interpreted this part of the stim as the sufficient condition given the context?

#feedback is this a typo? "(2) harm in fact resulted to and's employees owing to the handling of such substance [...]"

deleterious means "harmful often in a subtle or unexpected way"... wouldn't have guessed that without the good 'ole dictionary

it's not necessary for every question but it definitely helps where there's a causal chain. it will also help unmask any gaps between the premises and the conclusion, especially with this type of question

i'm interested!

i look through the text most of the time if i get the answer right - it helps me better understand the correct answer, especially if i missed something or misinterpreted part of the text. also good to understand why the other answers were wrong + identifying patterns (and generally understanding why it's important to fully understand what the answers are saying)

adding onto what StudyingInConnecticut said... it's also requiring you to further explain the explanation (i.e. why the sugar maples require more calcium in different seasons compared to others)... ex. why do they require more calcium in the summer/spring compared to fall/winter? does it rain less (if at all) in the colder months compared to warmer months (we don't have information to confirm if this is true or not)? when it does rain in the colder months, are the calcium levels not impacted as much (if at all) compared to when it rains during the warmer months (we don't have anything to verify this either)?

doesn't resolve the discrepancy (bc it's not really relevant to the other types of trees) and imo, leads to more questions about that explanation rather than actually resolving the discrepancy (whereas the correct answer doesn't really do this... it's more straightforward)

could be wrong, but my inner overthinker thought of this when i was going through the problem initially 🙃

#feedback place the entire stim + ACs into the text explanation... when pausing the video, the entire screen goes white, so it's hard to analyze the stimulus or the answers when we can't see them (and by this i mean together at the beginning of the text and not spread out into the text (which personally that makes it hard to follow))

#help for a question like this (and implicit PAI disagree questions in general), could we kick up the domain of the overall subject (in this case, ESP) to make it easier to unveil the actual disagreement?

#feedback

"Just because we now know that storytelling appears to be a universal aspect of culture and language does not the storytellers themselves have known it all along, [...]" should be "Just because we now know that storytelling appears to be a universal aspect of culture and language does not mean the storytellers themselves have known it all along, [...]"

#help ok i'm really confused. why is #5 considered a statement of intersectionality as opposed to a comparative statement like #6?

#help agreed - not sure why it wasn't mentioned in the explanation

i think it's the same information but not the same set of rules...??? someone please correct if this is wrong

also confused on this #help
