Lesson Review
That was a pretty challenging drill—I hope you found it useful, and at least somewhat
fun. In terms of Logical Reasoning, keep in mind that the scenarios in the drill were
more complicated that what you should expect in a real question. Also keep in mind
that, even for the most difficult conditional questions, most wrong answers are very
obviously wrong, and require very little work to eliminate. Don’t get in a habit of over-
thinking these types of answers. If you have a strong understanding of the stimulus,
typically only one or two answers warrant serious consideration.
If the material before that drill made you think about LSAT vocabulary in a somewhat
new way, or if you want to reinforce some of the lessons we discussed here, or if you
just happened to recognize a few terms that you either need to pay more attention to,
or need to understand more clearly, here is a suggested drill for you to do on your own:
Go through past Logical Reasoning questions, Logic Games, and Reading Comprehen-
sion passages that you have already worked on. Take the time to systematically circle
the key terms mentioned on the previous pages, and take note of how they influence
the reasoning relationships in the questions you’ve solved. Also take note of situations
that use unique variations of these terms or that don’t use these terms at all (such as a
Logical Reasoning argument that doesn’t use any specific terminology to point us to the
conclusion). This drill will help you see the importance of these key terms, and also help
you lock in the intimate connection between these key terms and the tasks you must
perform during the exam.
During the real exam, prioritizing these key words should not take much conscious ef-
fort (or any conscious effort at all, for that matter). Hopefully, by test day, it’s just how
you naturally read LSAT passages; these words define reasoning relationships, and if
you are focused on reasoning relationships, you will naturally prioritize these words.
