Date: March 8th, 2012 10:16 PM Author: Galvanic pisswyrm this doesnt really make sense.
there's nothing esoteric about a logic game. the only difficulty is the time limit. what techniques are supposed to improve this? |

Date: March 8th, 2012 11:25 PM Author: Galvanic pisswyrm but if youre dumb enough to really suck at it then i think the time limit would fuck you anyway.
its not like theres a linear algebra section on the lsat. i can see why studying would make a big difference there, but logic games are pretty intuitive. |

|
Date: March 8th, 2012 11:38 PM Author: Exciting Rigor i had very little experience with it the first time i'd ever seen it and i have a reasonably strong math background. my scores on games the first few times i tried them were abysmal. after practice and seeing some hints and techniques for attacking them, my scores were nearly perfect.
i think the real problem is that games require a minimal level of reading comprehension and mapping the ideas to symbols, then manipulating those symbols. this is different from writing essays or doing word problems in math. i guess it's closest to writing mathematical proofs but requires lower level but quicker logical reasoning. |

im not doubting that techniques are useful to solve logic games. im doubting the kind of person who cant figure out these techniques on their own. |
|
Date: March 8th, 2012 11:32 PM Author: Mischievous house-broken regret library nope, not fucked anyway. we can only repeat the same cycle of you rephrasing your point 50 different ways and me/other ppl saying you're wrong so many times (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1893397&forum_id=2#20160497) |

the lsats are pretty similar. and people arent doing much better despite the increase in tutoring/practice. |
