Hey Monthly + Live 7Sagers!

I got this question wrong both before and after BR and the explanations did not help but I finally think I understand it so I wanted to help anyone still confused like I was!
Here is how I logically mapped it out (I,F, and U mean inviting, functional, unobtrusive)
I & F → U
Contrapositive: Not U → not I or not F
This is the rule which the stimulus says modern architects violate. To violate this rule it would be that it is NOT the case that (I & F → U)
In other words, in order to violate this rule, there must be some case in which there is I and F, but not U
This is where I got caught up, as I was thinking that they had only mentioned that the buildings were not functional, but had not mentioned if they were inviting- but that doesn't matter. For the rule to be violated, it HAS to be the case (MUST BE TRUE) that there is some case with I, F, and NOT U. The other details are unimportant, as the correct answer just focuses on one aspect of the conditions that must be met for this rule to be violated.
Let me know if anyone has another explanation that makes more sense, or if my reasoning is wrong at any point!
Just want to share my notes/thought process!
Cannot is G4 negate necessary
Good legal system -> well paid
Police well paid -> good legal system
Flips lawgic
A. E. Irrelevant
B. Must is a stretch, we dont care about them
C. Effective is irrelevant
D. Yes, it should be a NC but it switches to SC which doesn’t warrant the lawgic if NC is satisfied

I've come across many posts by @akistotle they refer to as their "Cookie Cutter Reviews". These posts are super helpful and I'd like to read more of them. However, I can't figure out a way to effectively locate more of these specific posts. I initially found them in a comment under a video explanation, so searching the discussion forum obviously wouldn't locate. Would appreciate #help with this!

What're your guys' thought on NEU Law? General thoughts, advice, anything
I'm applying to UofT law and am struggling with the optional essay.
They recommend speaking about one of four suggested topics, but I'm struggling with selecting the one that fits best, as I already speak to my future ambitions in my personal statement.
One of the options is diversity. I'm of Lebanese origin and grew up in Dubai. Is there any way this would be an acceptable ground for diversity, or is it best to go with another topic?
does anyone know why the answer is E? ' In the absence of a threat to anyone's health or safety??

On this week’s special edition of the LSAT podcast, Henry, Rahela, Levi, and Priyana play a Secret Santa-esque game.
It’s a festive show, filled with the gift of LSAT study tips.
They cover everything from note-taking to diagramming, when to take your best guess to the pitfall of marathon sessions, and offer tips like “momentum matters more than perfectionism” and “you don’t win LR by being fast, you win by being decisive.”
Does anybody have the LSAT score percentiles for 2022. I know a 166 is 90th percentile. The percentiles are updated every year but I can't find the updated version.
I have no cumulative GPA calculation because I competed less than 60 graded credits of U.S./Canadian undergraduate-level work prior to the awarding of the international degree.
I've got 4.22/4.5 GPA from non U.S. undergraduate and 3.88/4.0 GPA from U.S. undergraduate.
According to LSAC Academic Summary Report, Degree(Summary) GPA is 3.81 and there's no Cumulative GPA.
Do law schools look my GPA as 3.81 or do they calculate cumulative GPA combined with both schools? If I calculate all the credits I've got from both schools with LSAC grade conversion table, my overall GPA is 4.02, which is pretty much higher than 3.81.
help Please advise me if you know how my GPA affects the law school admission.
-Can someone explain how D is wrong, and how A is correct?

Looking for advice on whether I should send GRE or LSAT. If I send GRE, I would cancel my LSAT score.
Me: I attended an Ivy League school and graduated magna cum laude. I work in a gov. job with name recognition. I have been out of school for five years. I think I have a compelling story and am a POC. Standardized testing has never been my strong suit, but I think my GPA/awards show I can succeed in a demanding academic environment. I also took a law course at the T-14 law school during my undergrad. Hoping to pursue a public interest law career.
LSAT: 158
GRE: Verbal (164, 94th), Quant (154, 47th), Writing: 5 (91st)
I'm open to retesting in January, but because I'm working full-time I want to be realistic about how much I can improve.
My read of recent news is that schools are starting to move away from weighing standardized test scores as highly as they have in the past. Seems like there is interest in recruiting more diverse candidates interested in public service. Wondering if these factors might also sway my calculus.
What would you do?
why isnt the answer c here? it states that precision is preferred and class is imprecise so itsn't it supported that the social sciences should use more precise terms?

Hey guys I could use some advice. I've been on the fence about signing up for my LSAT in either January or February and I am currently scoring between 159-161 with my BR ranging from 165 - 167. My goal score is a 165 but I'm not sure how far out in advance I should sign up for the test as this will be my very first one. Do I go ahead and sign up and aim to make the necessary improvements between now and Jan/Feb or wait until I've done so with my PT's? I'm also not sure what my study plan should look like between now and then if I do go ahead and sign up. I plan on applying for the next cycle so I am not in a rush to get my score sent to any schools right now. Any helpful advice about testing dates and study plans would be greatly appreciated!
Hi! Are you at the begining of your lsat journey or its finally STARTING to make sense for you (emphasize on starting)? If yes, consider becoming my study buddy or study group!! I live in CT (and would be happy to study in-person near Milford. I'd also be okay virtual meets.)
I'm looking for a study buddy or to form a small study group (4-5 people max). I'd like someone to study with, discuss and work through questions, and keep each other accountable. I'm available weekends and usually evenings weekday.
Comment if interested and we'll get started.
