Hi, I have noticed a pattern and was wondering if and how it is valid. Say for example an argument states: "Company X is trying out a new training pattern in order to improve productivity. This program works by XYZ reason (premise supporting this)." Many times if there is a strengthen ques...

What is the correct definition of "empirical evidence" mentioned in choice E ? (in order to have an understanding if this pops up in the future)

but there seem to be twists on the new games/ new combinations of stuff we havent seen...for ex. pt 68 game 3 or pt 62 game 2... a lot of the questions it seems that you have to test them out extensively... not a lot of major inferences to drive them... would be interested in hearing what one of the...

out of curiosity, what is a good "lsat-y" definition to keep in the back of our heads when we see the word generalization as described in answer choice B? I noticed that this comes up quite a lot in both wrong and right answer choices for method of argument type questions but I just never ...

anyone have some feedback on this? Much appreciated..
