LSAT tip - how to find the correct answer - faster.flv

The video that LSAC didn't want you to see!
Watch and learn how to rapidly answer 3 to 4 questions in the analytical puzzle games section - without doing any diagramming at all! And it is almost impossible to make a mistake.
This game (taken from "ACE the LSAT Logic Games") is so similar to real LSATs that LSAC demanded--wrongly--that YouTube remove this video for copyright violations. Thanks, we'll take that as a compliment.

This only works for the first question in each logic game

[LSATGetPrepped]

Yes, as the video mentions several times, you will use this technique to answer the first question in each set of games. By using this technique, you find the correct answer much more quickly than if you tried to diagram it.

this makes logic games seem so easy!!!

[LSATGetPrepped]

@MissGlamarellaaa "Easy" is an overstatement; I'd say this technique makes the games 'easier'.

[yepimthatb1]

Really great technique- but yeah what about the other questions? Isn't this where the diagram would be helpful?

[LSATGetPrepped]

Definitely. You are always going to have to diagram to some degree.

Excellent video. You are unlike the 95% of persons out there with useless information. And, you do not have an annoying voice/mannerism typical of that 95% crowd. Well done.

[LSATGetPrepped]

True, it can only be used on one specific question type, but that question type is the first question for three of the four sets. This is true for most LSATs in the last 15+ years (and is true for the most recent LSAT in Sept. 2009.) There is never going to be a golden bullet technique that will always work, that is why you need to learn how to use all the techniques and tools—and when to use them.

Don't worry, speed comes naturally as you become skilled at diagramming.

Thanks alot! I'm trying out for schools in NYC!

[LSATGetPrepped]

You are welcome.

It has been a long time since anyone called me 'young', so thank you.

The first answer is usually very easy but the ones after that are horrible especially when it says IF A comes before E then which one can be fourth. I have no idea how to draw a diagram for that.

If you need to pay an instructor to tell you how to eliminate the wrong answers, law school is probably not the best place for you anyways?

[AnaStaMoni]

is it normal for me, a 13 year old girl to be voluntarily taking lsat prep extremely early? or do most kids do it this early?

thank you
