Diagram

by ManhattanPrepLSAT2 Wed Aug 04, 2010 12:49 am

I've attached a diagram in case it's helpful --

The "chunk," in this case SS, is often one of the most useful constraints, and as Nazu mentioned it turns out that thinking about the SS chunk is the key to getting#14 correct -- if another letter occupies Tuesday and Thursday, there is nowhere for the SS chunk to go.

Hello!

I've been working on this diagram in the LG workbook. I'm a little confused how it was able to get the inferences it did on pg. 589. I pretty much followed a similar pattern, but I must have made too many inferences than I should have. I may have also misapplied the conditional rule on my work. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Emery! Don't worry if you didn't get all the inferences upfront. For this game, we got them in the book by framing around the four possible placements of the SS chunk. But that's not the only way to do the game, and if you played it another way that's totally fine. Personally, I like doing the conditional questions first.

As for the conditional rule, it would definitely make this game trickier if that rule were a little off. Happy to answer if you have a specific question about it.
