You can memorize them, but its way more important to internalize the rules. Understand why the argument is or is not valid. Spend some time meditating on that idea.

I appreciate the thanks. But, your contribution to me and our study group far outweighs mine to you. You're going to battle with some of the greatest legal, philosophical, and academic minds of our generation. Your place is rightly earned. I'm so pr…

If you are still working on the core curriculum, absolutely. Just because you answered a question correctly, does not mean you used the correct reasoning to get there.

Just a heads up, a friend of mine sent me a few Princeton Review LG sections. The sections were riddled with mistakes. Some questions had two correct answers which obviously shouldn't be the case. I also double checked with my friends later, it wasn…

It's not too complex. It's a god damn SAT word.

The curve is -13 for a reason.

Take a look at this concept summary from an audio book I've been listening to There is an excellent case study of a baseball team where the team is split in to two and they are given varied practice regimen. First group practices 45 pitches even…

It is always going to depend on how confident you are with the given answer choice. If you are only 50% sure, read on. If you are 90% sure, circle that bad boy and move on.

Your forum name is suiting for this post. It seems like this may be a reoccurring theme. See if you can embrace a more positive attitude, and detach yourself from your score. Looking through your other posts, they seem to indicate you may be working…

Disclaimer: I wrote a lot. Don't let this overwhelm you! A sufficient condition is something that implies if we have this thing, a necessary condition must come along with it. If it rains, the ground must be wet. A necessary condition is somethin…

Everything posted above by, @DumbHollywoodActor addressed your questions. A few side notes though. @bswise2 said: @jknauf but it does get us to a point of high suspicion. Maybe, but is our goal to weaken the argument? @bswise2 said…

So a conditional statement is a logically valid statement which means: If X happens then Y must happen. (If it rains, the ground must be wet) Well, given that we accept our conditional statement as completely true, we must also be able to also deter…

So as a premise, we are given the idea that at MAX there is 1 earthquake every 100,000 years. Answer choice E, is saying at minimum there is 1 earthquake every 100,000 years. So if I negate that, or say there is at minimum 0 earthquakes per 100,000 …

@JennLSAT When I first started, I printed out the list of 19 common argument flaws JY posted in the curriculum. I then went down the list of all the flaws and created my own argument. This helped to cement the flaws into my head. It's something lik…

@therealnas What did you think about the post I linked?

Ahh yes. This problem is far to common. I'm convinced people who haven't ran into this problem, simply aren't taking PTs in a proper way. Read this post by 7sage instructor Jon Wang - https://7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/2683/tackling-the-br…

@Sami said: Hey everyone, A lot of speed in LR comes from our ability to quickly spot these patterns that are constantly repeating. These patterns are not about learning question types - the core curriculum does a phenomenal job of that -…

@dantlee14 check out this thread. Someone was kind enough to compile a list of LSATs with nasty curves. I recommend bookmarking https://7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/9401/14-pt-curve-list

Hi all, thank you for your interest in the study group! I'm working to finalize the list and I will be messaging those who I have chosen sometime today with further instruction. If you do not receive a message, please join the open 7sage groups. If …

@MapleSarahp said: "bubble after every double means no trouble" Hahaha yesss

Come on people, lets put together arguments and decide on the best way. Make an argument, and defend it against other arguments. I bubble after every LG, every RC passage, and every two pages on LR. My argument is that every act of pulling your an…

@akistotle you are exactly right! I remember beating my head over this problem for a while. For me, now a days, this question would be an automatic skip. I'm not sure if its considered a curve breaker. Proving the correct answer choice is a task in…
