I taught a class yesterday, and while we were working through a particular game in the Logic Games section (this one had ordering rules nested inside conditional logic), many people had questions about the best way to draw those rules. Read more

Diagramming Conditional Logic is a huge part of LSAT success, and can also be a major hurdle for many students to overcome.
