binary grouping game

Post by wanderlust » Sat Aug 06, 2011 12:22 am

Binary grouping games always take me longer than other types. The LG bible method works great for me in nearly all types of games. But I don't think it helps me very much on binary games.
Any suggestions which prep company perhaps has a better approach? (Manhattan's arrows approach seems a bit overwhelming)
Thanks!

Manhattan is a much easier approach to binary games. You can do the games almost without even thinking.

really??
I haven't look into their method. It's just their diagram seems huge, esp. if the game has large number of variables. Guess I'll try out their method then.

The setup may take a little longer bc if you rush and make a stupid mistake (i.e draw an arrow in the wrong direction or something) you are hosed on almost all questions. But I guess you run the risk of those types of errors with the LG format as well.

I studied the LG bible and found that my binaries were taking me 8-9 minutes eventhough I felt like they should be an easy game type for me. I switched to manhattan and never went over 5-6 minutes again.
