summary
the summary of the content focuses on strategies for tackling parallel reasoning questions on the lsat, highlighting their complexity, time-consuming nature, and the approach for identifying the correct answer.
- parallel reasoning questions are designed to be time-consuming and complicated, often slowing down the test-taker.
- the key to solving these questions is to deconstruct the argument in the stimulus into its component parts, identifying its conclusion, evidence, and overall structure.
- the correct answer will mirror the structure of the argument in the stimulus, despite potentially differing in content or the order of presentation.
- language in these questions can be intentionally confusing, with longer answer choices adding to their difficulty.
- the process involves comparing the conclusions and evidence of the answer choices to those in the stimulus to find a match in logical structure.
