always getting one LG question wrong

lpadr009

Hi everyone, I am pretty much ALWAYS getting either the 2nd or 3rd question wrong in logic games. I know why, because by the 2nd/3rd I haven't completely mastered the rules but by the last few I understand them 100%. Any advice on how to master the moment I diagram them?

If you're sure that's the issue, spend more time initially before beginning the questions. Either spend more time looking for inferences or how the rules will interact.

Yeah, that makes the most sense. I guess it's just hard for me to not jump directly into problems because I feel like I am wasting time. Thank you!

It won't waste time as you will make inferences and gain familiarity, which will expedite question part of section.

As long as the work you do up front is productive and correct then it doesn't really matter if you spend 6 minutes on the setup if it makes each question take 10-15 seconds. Just keep practicing and you'll develop a better feel for when to dive into the questions and when to push out more inferences up front...
