Hi guys, I am having a lot of difficulty with tough conditional logic questions. When it comes to translating these from english to lawgic I just mess everything up. What can I do??

Hey,
Have you memorized the 4 groups of conditional logic translations. If not, really commit it to memory. For a while I had a tenuous grasp of it, but once I really learned it I stopped having trouble with any conditional heavy LR questions.
This is the lamest advice ever, but just keep practicing. Mastering conditional logic takes a while. Even getting good at conditional logic in general takes a while. Always keep in mind that your struggle with conditional logic is not an anomaly.
Go through the part of the curriculum that covers conditional logic. If you have already done so, do it again. You already did it twice? Do it a third time. With conditional logic, practice and exposure make perfect. Drill some of the conditional logic "type" questions (MBT, SA, and inference)
My break through on conditional logic really came in the NA lessons. That was when the true nature of the relationship between sufficiency/necessity really clicked for me. That doesn't necessarily help with mapping, but it's a big component of success on questions involving conditionals.
