You aren't as susceptible to, oh, you know, I just always miss Weekend. That type of stuff. Because you're the one in control of the stimulus. You're making sure you have your read right. You have your translation right. You have your analysis right.
What is the LSAT Loophole in Logical Reasoning_segment0.mp3
You're making sure you have your read right. You have your translation right. You have your analysis right. And then you go into that question and you already have your armor built up. And so that, that itself is the loophole. Gotcha.
What is the LSAT Loophole in Logical Reasoning_segment0.mp3
And then you go into that question and you already have your armor built up. And so that, that itself is the loophole. Gotcha. So the loophole, to put it in like terms for those who don't get it yet, it's basically like the gap. Yeah. It's the gap.
What is the LSAT Loophole in Logical Reasoning_segment0.mp3
So the loophole, to put it in like terms for those who don't get it yet, it's basically like the gap. Yeah. It's the gap. And so it's like the thing that's wrong with the argumentation. And I go into this in chapter, starting in chapter two of the book, and then it filters throughout the whole thing. That in any invalid argument, which is any bad argument, the ones that we see on the L side all the time, there's like, yeah, but what about that?

And so it's like the thing that's wrong with the argumentation. And I go into this in chapter, starting in chapter two of the book, and then it filters throughout the whole thing. That in any invalid argument, which is any bad argument, the ones that we see on the L side all the time, there's like, yeah, but what about that? Yeah. But what if like Dolores actually assaults people? You know, like you, you didn't cover that, that base.
What is the LSAT Loophole in Logical Reasoning_segment0.mp3
Yeah. But what if like Dolores actually assaults people? You know, like you, you didn't cover that, that base. And so that, and there are lots of different kinds of loopholes too, that like patterns that we can detect. That's what the loophole is. Really just putting on your skeptical hat, putting on your skeptical goggles, and seeing the argument in its most unflattering light, taking that critique, that gap, that loophole, and running with it into the question.

Really just putting on your skeptical hat, putting on your skeptical goggles, and seeing the argument in its most unflattering light, taking that critique, that gap, that loophole, and running with it into the question. And it's actually interesting because the loophole is the negation of the necessary assumption. So the necessary assumption, the thing that has to be true if this conclusion is to hold water, that's just the flip side of the loophole. And so you can, you can come at it from either side.

So the necessary assumption, the thing that has to be true if this conclusion is to hold water, that's just the flip side of the loophole. And so you can, you can come at it from either side. You know, I don't really care. If everybody came up with the necessary assumption, every question, blah for you. That works just as well.

Personally, I'll hyper skip like four or five LR questions in just one session. And people are always shocked when I tell them that because they think I should just know the answer right away. But no, it happens to me too. And there's no shame in that. I'm not trying to be a genius. I'm trying to get the questions right.
Why LSAT Experts Hyper-Skip on LSAT Logical Reasoning_segment0.mp3
And there's no shame in that. I'm not trying to be a genius. I'm trying to get the questions right. Exactly. If you are not 100% sure, man, take a second look. You can always come back later.
Why LSAT Experts Hyper-Skip on LSAT Logical Reasoning_segment0.mp3
Exactly. If you are not 100% sure, man, take a second look. You can always come back later. Exactly. Because the problem is, like say this number eight, you know, I'm, I'm just blown. I don't know what's going on.
Why LSAT Experts Hyper-Skip on LSAT Logical Reasoning_segment0.mp3
Exactly. Because the problem is, like say this number eight, you know, I'm, I'm just blown. I don't know what's going on. And like, I'm freaking out. The real danger is not that I miss number eight. The real danger is 9, 10, 11, 12.
Why LSAT Experts Hyper-Skip on LSAT Logical Reasoning_segment0.mp3
And like, I'm freaking out. The real danger is not that I miss number eight. The real danger is 9, 10, 11, 12. Because I will not tell you how many times I have looked at practice tests and real tests. And I see, huh, okay, you missed 11, 12 and 13. And they're like, not even a big deal for that student, you know, like that student, you know, they really that's within their wheelhouse, they can get 11, 12 and 13 in this particular instance.

Because I will not tell you how many times I have looked at practice tests and real tests. And I see, huh, okay, you missed 11, 12 and 13. And they're like, not even a big deal for that student, you know, like that student, you know, they really that's within their wheelhouse, they can get 11, 12 and 13 in this particular instance. And I'll be like, how, how was number 10? How was nine? How was eight?
Why LSAT Experts Hyper-Skip on LSAT Logical Reasoning_segment0.mp3
And I'll be like, how, how was number 10? How was nine? How was eight? You know, and then we find that's the question. And even though they got it right, they missed those ones later, because their head was still on eight, their head was still messed up of like, oh my God, but what if it was wrong? Now I won't get a NYU.

You know, and then we find that's the question. And even though they got it right, they missed those ones later, because their head was still on eight, their head was still messed up of like, oh my God, but what if it was wrong? Now I won't get a NYU. Like, they missed all these doable questions because they didn't let eight go. And so that's what hyper skipping does. Because it's like, you know what, I'm putting B down out of my hands.
Why LSAT Experts Hyper-Skip on LSAT Logical Reasoning_segment0.mp3
Like, they missed all these doable questions because they didn't let eight go. And so that's what hyper skipping does. Because it's like, you know what, I'm putting B down out of my hands. I'll get back to it if I have time. And then you know, like, you know, I'm going to try and get a second look, you can kind of let it go a little bit better knowing you have an answer on the scantron. Yeah, the key is just, you don't want to get bogged down.

I'll get back to it if I have time. And then you know, like, you know, I'm going to try and get a second look, you can kind of let it go a little bit better knowing you have an answer on the scantron. Yeah, the key is just, you don't want to get bogged down. And yeah, that question, whether you get it right or wrong, the point is that it could lead to this cascading disaster, really. And that can not only happen within one section, but then the rest of the test, I always hear from people after every LSAT that they scored below where they should have. And it's because what happened earlier affected what happened later.

I get so freaking annoyed when people are like, anything before PrepTest 60, screw it. I'm like, what are you talking about? Like, it just blows my mind. I mean, I think PrepTest 31 is the greatest game section in the history of the LSAT. It has everything, locker game, boys and girls, shirt lockers, and game four of that section is no freaking joke. That one's crazy, that one's crazy, I love it.

That one's crazy, that one's crazy, I love it. Yeah? Yeah, students need to do the old games. And there's, especially if you're saying you've done everything from 60 and up and then you've ran out of it, well, there's plenty more to do.
Why You Need to Study Old LSAT Logic Games_segment0.mp3
Yeah? Yeah, students need to do the old games. And there's, especially if you're saying you've done everything from 60 and up and then you've ran out of it, well, there's plenty more to do. There's another couple of hundred games that you could work on. And yeah, they might be a little bit different in feel, but they're still perfectly valid and useful. And if anything, with the curveball games coming back, then you definitely want to do the oldest games.

And if anything, with the curveball games coming back, then you definitely want to do the oldest games. Yeah, I mean, I honestly think it's like internet group think that like somebody said at some point that everything that isn't valid anymore, but it's completely valid. Like, and you also, I mean, we have all the evidence in the world that they're bringing stuff back. And like in how I'm doing my games book, how I'm structuring it, I'm actually giving a third of the book to weird games.

And like in how I'm doing my games book, how I'm structuring it, I'm actually giving a third of the book to weird games. Oh, that's amazing, I'm so happy to hear that. Yeah, then I'm doing it one third, one third, one third. And I'm not even actually structuring it by type.
Why You Need to Study Old LSAT Logic Games_segment0.mp3
Oh, that's amazing, I'm so happy to hear that. Yeah, then I'm doing it one third, one third, one third. And I'm not even actually structuring it by type. I'm actually structuring it more by action and by skill. But you know, within each action and skill, we explore different kinds of games, but I'm like really not relying on typing nearly as much. But the weird games are getting just as much page count as something else, like as grouping and ordering.

But the weird games are getting just as much page count as something else, like as grouping and ordering. Like, because it's just, it's too big of a vulnerability to leave open to like the last few pages of like some afterthought of like, oh, if I have time, I'll think about pattern games. Like, no, bro, like go and do it, get good at it from the get go. That's why I always have my students in tutoring with games, they start at that book of 10 that starts at prep test seven.

And I want them to fricking cut their teeth on the promotions game, on the alphabet game, on the subway game. You know, I want them to have that ingrained, baked right in to their idea of games from day one. Not what the hell is this?

And I want them to fricking cut their teeth on the promotions game, on the alphabet game, on the subway game. You know, I want them to have that ingrained, baked right in to their idea of games from day one. Not what the hell is this? How am I supposed to do it? I know how to put dancers in order. You know what I mean?
Why You Need to Study Old LSAT Logic Games_segment0.mp3
How am I supposed to do it? I know how to put dancers in order. You know what I mean? Amazing, no, I love it. I love the emphasis. I love that you're gonna devote so much time and effort and page count to curveball games.
Why You Need to Study Old LSAT Logic Games_segment0.mp3
Amazing, no, I love it. I love the emphasis. I love that you're gonna devote so much time and effort and page count to curveball games. Because I do think that too many people treat them as an afterthought. I always try to email out lists of curveball games, but there's always more to be done, especially since this is a new and growing area that curveball games are here to stay. There's no doubt about it.

There's no doubt about it. They've been around for like a couple dozen exams already. And I think if there's one lesson from this, like LSAC can really do anything. You have to be ready for anything.

They've been around for like a couple dozen exams already. And I think if there's one lesson from this, like LSAC can really do anything. You have to be ready for anything. And that requires not only proficiency, but also adaptability. Absolutely, like we need to teach games in a way that you just develop a visual system of thinking. That you can take words and you can turn them into a diagram on the page.

And that requires not only proficiency, but also adaptability. Absolutely, like we need to teach games in a way that you just develop a visual system of thinking.

And you might have to make some on the fly decisions throughout. You're gonna be prepared. You're gonna know the landscape, but you're never gonna like get rid of just inventive thinking. Because who knows what they might do? They're probably gonna do some type of sheep in wolf's clothing where you actually have seen it before, but the words are intimidating and you feel like you haven't. That's why we need that adaptability and just like really spatial fluidity of like turn the words into pictures, let's go.
