Well if it's not going to affect how the admissions perceive you as a candidate, it doesn't seem like a big deal.
I think all your worries would be eliminated by simply attaching a special note in the addendum section of the application…
@confusedandenthused
"Without strength or (without) endurance, the fight is all but lost."
S = Strength
E = Endurance
F = the fight is all but lost
original sentence, translated:
(~ S v ~ E ) > F
do a D'Morgan equivalence:
~ ( S & E )…
"the habit of volunteering cannot be said to have been fostered in a person who has not yet volunteered for anything"
The habit of volunteering = H
Volunteered for anything = V
Original Statement:
~ H if ~ V
unfix the 'if':
~ V > ~ H
contrapose…

You can 100% keep the same LORs on file for however long you want. Better get them now too so you are also relevant in the writers' minds (i.e. if you are done with undergrad this year).
If the professors ask you for dates and stuff fo…
For me after I wrote in June I had to retake in Oct. Before June I made my priority the quantity of hours that I was studying. I burnt myself out (go figure) and got sub 3 my average PT score for my June take. For Oct I pretty much realized that my …
There is no double negative. In the antecedent of the now contraposed conditional,
@fishtwentyfive said:
If one does not know she knows nothing, then she does not have true wisdom
We are only negating what was the consequent of the original state…
The only true wisdom is in knowning you know nothing
rewrite it as logically clear: One has true wisdom only if she knows she knows nothing
symbolize, where T is "one has true wisdom" and K is "she knows she knows nothing"
T > K

I did exactly what you did with every LR question I got wrong for probably 10 PTs in a row. I'm sure someone has done something similar to a larger extent. I scored mid 170s. If you can explain why the answer is right thoroughly, which is often very…
@Allagash19
I did not pay for a course. My diagnostic was a 157. I scored a 168 after 9 weeks of studying. I scored a 176 a few months after that. Logic games was also my worst section initially. I learned how to do logic games 100% from the free v…
I legitimately focused on timing-- I remember I would get blasted like -8 on LR because I would miss them all in the first 20. Focus on time if time is what you want-- focus on accuracy if accuracy is what you want-- and go back and forth until you'…
The flawed argument works in this manner, like you've illustrated:
1. I > T
2. L > T
3. L
4. T
5. T > I
Conclusion: I
But note that arriving at T (4.) is actually not an assumption; it's derived validly from premises 2 and 3. But yes the …
If you do this:
1. A > B
2. B
Conclusion: A
then you have confused the necessary condition (B) as a sufficient condition for acquiring A, which is not supported by the premises.
If you do this (where ~ means 'not'):
1. A > B

@"The 180 Bro"
I suggest diagramming them at least in review. You may not be quick enough to diagram then yet under timed conditions-- a lot of them you can be solved in your head under a time crunch. But you should learn how to diagram them well, …
