Highlights
For tonight's class we focused on understanding exactly what the passage is telling us before even making our predictions. We found the obvious vulnerability in the DataCom question and had fun dreaming up the myriad reasons it had a banner year outside of the one offered by the conclusion. Then we took the time to understand what the Surrealist was arguing and identified the argument's parts. We rearranged the argument to show how the premise supported the conclusion.
Marissa Varnado
Marissa fell in love with the LSAT and believes that anyone is capable of buckling down and crushing this test, just like she did in taking her score from 155 to 173. Her favorite LSAT pastimes include poking holes in Logical Reasoning arguments and cracking the codes in Logic Games.
Set yourself up for success with a solid foundation in LR. Over this four-week course, Marisa will take you through the fundamentals of the LR section. We’ll focus on reading and attacking arguments—no gimmicks or tricks needed!
