Highlights

The universal objection to flawed arguments starts with “Your evidence doesn’t prove your conclusion because…” If you can describe in your own words why an argument is dumb, then you’ve identified its flaw.

After tackling a set of Logical Reasoning questions, Nathan introduced LSAT Demon’s Student of the Week, Taylor Kaminsky, and encouraged students to connect with one another via LinkedIn.If you remember one tip for Reading Comprehension, remember that the passage has evidence for the right answer. The LSAT tests your ability to comprehend what you read, and they do that by asking a bunch of Must Be Trues.

Both of tonight’s bonus LR questions illustrated the importance of careful reading. One word can make an answer conclusively wrong. At every level, the most common mistake on the LSAT is misreading.
