Not Understanding Logic Games

skylar.stark99

I have been doing fairly well on logical reasoning and reading comprehension sections, however, when it comes to logic games I can't seem to grasp the concepts. It feels as though there is some fundamental aspect of logic games that hasn't clicked yet and once it does it will all make sense. What I struggle with the most is setting up game boards. It takes me so long to just answer one question and I'm still left confused and unconfident by the end of the question. Does anyone have any advice on how to get better at logic games?

Logic games for me and for many others are really difficult, but like I'm sure you've heard before, they're the most learnable. What you're describing can be overcome. If you are struggling with setting up game boards, you need to repeat the game as many times as you need until your set-up is flawless. If you feel unconfident in your answers, its probably because you haven't made enough inferences. Grasping "concepts" isn't necessarily important here, more so pattern recognition. Being able to recognize a common type of rule and the inferences attached to it is crucial. Once you've made inferences from the rules given in a game, you'll become more confident in your answer choices because you will know there cannot possibly be any other answer. Inferences are "hidden rules" in a sense. They limit the possibilities and make the game simpler. In my experience, recognizing inferences only comes with high amounts of repetition. I hope this helps.

You're not alone, mate. It really is all about reps. LG by far is my worst section too. Just gotta keep grinding games out.
