Really work on seeing the difference between them on your down to two.
I almost always function with what comes after the until/without as necessary condition and negate the other part. However sometimes it just makes more sense to do it the other way around. We want to remain flexible.

Both likely arguments. Do you focus on the structure? Breaking down the argument first—finding the conclusion and the premises?
Check out their respective NALP reports! Plus, don’t have to write a Wisconsin Bar!!?
Flexibility is required on the lsat. If in conditional statements particular indicators are throwing you, simply put the conditional statement into a basic “if”, “then” form with the first half the if (sufficient) and the second half the “then (necessary)” and you can see usually see them more clearly
If the judges are independent, then there will be a good legal system
The number one way to weaken on the LSAT is by an alternate explanation answer choice, or so I’ve been told. Look for strong answers and as above shouldn’t have to make assumptions.
You can do it! Are you drilling your weaknesses?
Agree with above, don’t be incessant about it. Do try to comprehend what you read foremost. But there can be tricky trap answer choices and so sometimes, at least writing something down or trying to map it out can get you to the correct one!
If you fail the sufficient, the rules falls away.
"required" is used in the past tense. I found that helpful.
Hi there welcome! BR/review is of utmost importance so take your time.
I understand. It sounds like you may be on the precipice of a breakthrough. Try focusing on the conclusion if nothing else, and ask " how can I argue against this". It is important to remember you do not have to prove the conclusion, but just weaken the support between the premise and conclusion, and typically an alternate explanation is the best answer choice here.
Agree with @ wholeheartedly. I struggled recognizing them also, but am much more familiar so it can be done. You could also search in discussion for comments on the topic.
Based on the facts (stimulus), what can be supported? The answer choice does not have to be strong nor a totality of the stimulus, but maybe just a small part. Perhaps pay attention to the first and last sentences (if more than two).
J.Y. Also deciphers them on harder questions to get to the correct answer.
If you’re just beginning your learning try not to torture yourself too much on mastering this yet perhaps. It will come. Do your best with something in your head and go to the answer choices and focus on the conclusion or to weaken anti conclusion
It’s an lsat way of saying “at least as” and possibly greater
I am thinking this lesson may be referring to negating or denying a conditional. Whereby the sufficient exists AND one instance of the necessary does not.
What is the author fighting for? Dig deep on argument structure.
Without seeing the prompt, Sounds like the purpose of getting this question is to recognize the sufficient necessary flaw here. Is there an answer choice that addresses that?
Hi do you have any specific concerns or examples?
Would not say this is a famous flaw such as part to whole, but rather which answer choice is accurately descriptive of what’s going on?
