what does "few" mean in LSAT?
Does it mean there are some or does it mean there is actually none?

Re: what does "few" mean in LSAT?
Good question! It actually depends.
If you say, "a few A's are B's," that would imply some (lets say 2 - maybe 3 - or more)
If you say, "few A's are B's," that would imply that while some A's are B's, that most A's are not B's. And it's the latter form that the test-writers typically utilize in the construction of the chain of reasoning.
Hope that helps!
