PT32 S3 Intepreting the Rule F-X-X-R

I have a question on interpreting this point:

At least two compositions are performed either after F and before R, or after R and before F.

I think normally the LSAT is going for F-X-X-R or R-X-X-F (with min 2-X) but being extra cautious in doing this problem I also included a possibility of X-X-R-F-X-X and X-X-F-R-X-X since it doesn't indicate the two compositions must be the same nor must they be between them. Is this incorrect to interpret it this way? Is it safe to assume it will ways be referring to just the first set ups? (F-X-X-R)

    Your first interpretation is correct. At least 2 must be sandwiched between F and R, regardless of which one comes first. I've never seen your second interpretation for such a rule. Stick with the first.

    At least 2 are after F AND before R.
    OR
    At least 2 are after R AND before F.

    Okay, that makes sense. Thanks for the answers.
