Logical Indicators & Translating to Lawgic Practice

blueyayfree

If you're just finishing the first logic lesson, and want to practice memorizing the logical indicators, and translating english into lawgic (or if you just want to practice either of those generally), I made a spreadsheet that does both that I thought I'd share if anyone's interested.

One tab has a list (that can be randomized on command) of all the logical indicators, and a field for you to type in what each introduces. It will tell you if you got it right, and has the option to display the correct answer if you get it wrong (or not). You can then randomize it and keep practicing.

The other tab has a 40 simple sentences to translate into lawgic (they're from pp. 257-258 of the Trainer; I didn't come up with them myself. If that somehow infringes a copyright or something somebody tell me and I won't share it). You input what you think the sentence means, and it will tell you if you get it right (accepts translation and contrapositive of translation*), again with the option to display the correct answer if you get it wrong.

I find it helps to actually write (albeit on the computer) out answers rather than using flashcards, and just repetitively practicing is helpful to drill out the need to think through this stuff. And you can get away with it at work, perhaps, because it's a fancy spreadsheet. I may have made it at work myself. And I have a weird love affair with Excel. So if you have Excel and would like study tool PM and I'll send it to you.

*I'm excessively proud of my Excel formulas to accomplish this, so if you're a fellow Excel nerd, please put me in my place.

If you want the spreadsheet. The demand for this thing has exceeded my willingness to send individual emails to everyone.

@blueyayfree Sent you a message. Please send it to [removed]
I would sincerely appreciate it

If the offer still stands, I would like a copy of the worksheet.

@jklove41 it's generally a better idea to PM someone your email rather than post it in public. They usually remove them as seen above.

Same, if the offer still stands, I'd like a worksheet too. I'll send you a message

Hey everyone, if you've sent me a PM asking for this I apologize for not getting back to you. I've just returned from a week-long LSAT hiatus, which included ignoring all 7Sage emails. Check out the link in the comment. Much more efficient way to share.

Welcome back! Just going to mention the users that replied wanting one of these in case they missed the link:

@Pacifico As I looked over these indicators I noticed the column for "few". @blueyayfree Is your upper bound correct at 50? How can most be "not" if half are?
This is exactly the indicator I was referring to in our Wed BR call. Someone said few meant "some" but that is not the full story.

What a great resource, thanks!

LsatChic

wow awesome thank you!. This is a great resource.

Q.E.D

That's uncommon text manipulation for a student. Excel is strong with this one. He/she may someday become a jedi knight.

Looks like the link is no longer active. Does any have a copy of this?

tams2018

also looking for a copy. Grateful.

Does anyone still have it? Please let me know.

Jay Bird

Does anyone have a copy of this spreadsheet? Would love to add this to my inventory of LSAT documents.

doyouevenLSAT

anyone can get this?

Brian_NDirish

Can someone send this to me?

Still waiting on my score.. Anticipating that I'll have to retake with a -9 curve. Want to solidify my basic foundations.

7SageKindness

I would really appreciate it if someone could send it to me as well. Thank you.

So I suppose no one got one of these since the link was removed? #help

Sorry, this was posted three years ago, so I don't think anyone active here now has a copy.

Also, #help is for comments in the lessons, so it doesn't mean much for the Forum.
