Re: Q26 - Researchers gave 100 first-graders

Will someone kindly explain why E is not an answer?
The previous explanations on why E is not the answer isn't so clear to me. How is E weakening the argument?

Thanks in advance!

Q3 - Most employees spend their time

Hello! It's such a shame I got one of the earlier questions wrong :( But I still wanted to make sure I understand this question clearly. The passage is saying, efficient employees = ignore demands and spend their time on something else that can highly reward their employers if successful and risk of...

Q4 - Philosopher: We should not disapprove

All the negatives and vocabulary in this passage gave me a hard time with this problem.. Please check my principle. Should not disapprove the unearthing of truths = We should approve the discovery of truths that we would rather not acknowledge OR that might influence society in harmful ways . Then I...

Re: Q18 - North Americas who travel to Europe

I was drawn to C until I read "while also studying the works of others."

Is this the right answer because the passage talks about a thorough knowledge "at least" one country?

Thanks in advance!

Re: Q7 - Very little is known about

Hello, When I saw the answer choice A, I was for sure it was the right one and just moved on without even looking at other answer choices. The second time I did the problem after finding out I got it wrong, I picked the right answer, only because I knew A was the wrong answer. I know tommydoeslsat a...

Re: Q14 - The authorship of the Iliad

The "it" in question refers to "a hypothesis." There are two hypotheses presented in the original argument: the first is that Homer created the works, the second is that he didn't. We also know from the original that there is indeed no overwhelming evidence for either one. There...

Re: Q22

Wow this really helps a lot!

Instead of putting N in S and O in R, I just changed up my original diagram and just confused the crap out of myself :?

Q10 - It is a principle of economics that

I got this question right because I could eliminate all the wrong answers, but I'm having a hard time understanding the right answer. Answer D, the right answer, is the contrapositive of the principle in the passage. What I don't understand is the contrapositive relationship between "consumer c...

Re: Logic Game Challenge #34: Party Problem (Easy)

This game has been killing me for the last 30 minutes.. I got all the rules right and drew the logic chain following the rules. But when I actually got to the questions, I couldn't get most of them right.. And I still don't understand why the right answers are right.. (And this is the easy version.....

Q22

This question threw me off. I just changed up my diagram (O <-> N) and tried to come up with two frames: O in S and N in R & N in S and O in R. When I put N in S and O in R, I could figure out where every element went. So I could eliminate B through E. But I still can't figure out why A mu...

Re: Errata list - Manhattan LSAT 3rd edition LOGIC GAMES

Hello,

I found a small mistake on pg. 40.

In the second sentence of the second to the last paragraph, "you want to able to" should be "you want to [be] able to."

Re: Q22 - Columnist: Several recent studies

I guess I just created a causality between crossing with/against the light and danger from a correlation... And was tempted by the answer choice B as you said in the previous post.

Your examples of the causation words help a lot.

Thanks!

Re: Q22 - Columnist: Several recent studies

Hi Matt, I was down to B and E and ended up picking E and got this question right. But I still am a little confused why there is no causality in this passage. To me, several studies showed the correlation between crossing with/against the light and danger, but the argument seemed to say crossing aga...

Re: Q14 - Roger Bacon, the thirteenth-century scientist

Hello!

I also picked C, but the previous explanations don't seem so clear to me.

Also, from the previous posts, I understand that his "behavior" is the same or at least included in his "character." Is this right?

Please help! Thanks!

Re: Errata list - Manhattan LSAT 3rd edition LOGICAL REASONING

I found small mistakes.

On page 152, after the P-C diagram, the second sentence that starts with "It also correct to say that...." is missing "is."

On page 167, in the answer choice (D), it says "recognix ze" instead of "recognize" !

Logic Games Strategy Guide pg 175, #4

For the 3D Ordering setup, I'm confused about #4.

I drew the diagram right for everything else, but I don't understand why there are two 60's before 30 and after 60 (which is immediately after 30).

Please advise.

Thanks!
