Passage Discussion

For this passage, was there a scale ? I found this passage, like other literature/artistic related passages, hard to understand, especially during the first time i did it under timed condition for the prep test. The passage seems to be talking about three literature movements in Chopin's life and wh...

Re: Q10 - In an experiment designed

For "B" though why does it matter for us to link it to the idea of the lightening? I went with "B" because it says a single acid would have been enough. In the passage it never said the Low H High N was 100% needed for the lightening+amino acid formation to occur since it says &q...

Re: Q9 - In a party game, one person

Do you have any recommendations on what happens when we encounter a question like this. I personally found this the hardest question in the section and most likely because I never understood the passage. During the prep test, I just did not understand the passage at all on two occasions (the first t...

Re: Q4 - Traditional "talk" therapy, in which

I am not understanding what "B" does that makes the argument correct. To me it seems like the argument is saying talking therapy is just as effective as pharmacological intervention since both intervene in the neurochemistry of the brain. Choice B says the improvements produced by the talk...

Q22

Hi For this question, on the answer key, it deduced that (L,S) must be either first or second in a cloud. This in turn means that (FM) is a cloud for slots 3 and 4. This in turn forces "J" to be in 3 or 4. The part I am not seeing is how we concluded (L,S) goes in 1 and 2. I know that the ...

Re: Q12 - Navigation in animals is defined

I understand "B" meets one of the conditions ("unfamiliar territory" --> migration route is a familiar route) but when I was doing it I chose "A" because "A" seems to suggest the "navigation" may have been random/ by luck because the bear kept cha...

Re: Q24 - Sometimes one reads a poem

After reading the replies, I don't think I understand the argument It seems like to me conclusion is the second sentence where it is wrong to think the meaning of the poem is the intent of the authors. Why? Some of us reading a poem think it expresses contradictory ideas but no one who is writing a ...

Re: Q22

How do we solve the problem if we do not use previous work? Even after seeing the answer key I am not understanding why the answer would lead us to conclude is L or T that must be in since this game has no rules where something in the "OUT" column forces something else into the "IN&qu...

Re: Q20

For this question should it be done through inferences or should it be done through guess and check I am not sure where the inference (in red) came from from the other answer key (the one on the student center) that said In : L _ _ Out: P W M/T H/S I am not sure how to make the inference that the re...

Re: Q9

I am unsure with how "B" got eliminated. To me it seems like "B" is saying Chopin agrees that colorists' style had little emotional impact. In the passage it said that Chopin adopted the colorists' style because it allowed her to tell her stories without resorting to the sentimen...

Re: Q17 - Hospital executive: At a recent

I am still not understanding "b" as the answer. When doing the problem, I thought the main flaw was "most significant threat" --> "highest priority" where threat = priority is the link. But I did not see a choice linking the two. However I am not sure as to where in ...

Re: Q22 - One of the most useful

"A" seems more like a defender assumption. I was reluctant to choose "A" except all the other choices were eliminated but i thought sufficient assumptions tend (or only?) to bridge instead of giving you a possible objection since the possible objection should not be able to be su...

Re: Q22 - When a society undergoes

When I was doing this problem I went with "C" for the reasons you mentioned above as that was my prephrase. However, I am still not sure how to eliminate "A" because to me we would have to assume young people can accurately discern the pace of change of society in order to listen...

Re: Diagram

On the work out diagram solutions in the student portal it says that in this game J and L are interchangeable and hence can't be linked. Does this mean in general that when we have rules where we don't know the precise ordering of two variables (if it's after or before) we should not attempt to make...

Re: Q17 - Philosopher: Graham argues that since a person

I agree and see "B" is correct However, I am still not seeing "D". I understand the subtle point brought up earlier ( author was not intending on disproving but telling us to not be persuaded by it , albeit they seem pretty similar) However, how do we know that a claim is not mea...

Q2 - Zoo Director

I found the conclusion correctly ( it is a false economy to cut the budget devoted the zoo). However, reading through the answer explanation (from the strategy guide 5th edition page 448) , I am curious what is the difference between a "claim" and a "fact" for the LSAT. For examp...
