Nowadays when I read anything, it feels like I'm scouting for LSAT passages.

Two species of deep-sea dwelling, mushroom-shaped organisms discovered off the coast of Southeast Australia defy all existing classifications of life, researchers from the University of Copenhagen say. The organisms, described in the journal PLOS One, are multicellular and nonsymmetrical, and live 400 to 1000 meters deep. They have been classified in an aptly named new genus, Dendrogramma enigmatica.

PRETTY SURE I could guess how this passage will proceed.

YEAH, DID YOU?

Also, you're amazing and so is your Reptar tar.

(technically, it's "opera mauve")

[hetookmetoamovie]

Yes, I looked up the RGB codes for different shades of mauve and selected a specific shade in order to make an LSAT LG joke in my TLS Tar.

RIP the idea that I had a semblance of a social life

ETA: I did it for you, GT!

"The one about the" art teachers, coloured paper vs.paint colours, and the assumption needed

Oh I love this question! (/the nerdiest among us)

The conclusion is that art teachers -- in order to teach art students about the use of color -- should use colored paper rather than paint.

Support: Because colored paper allows for precise comparison of the color's impact in varying contexts.

Necessary assumption: Precision in comparing colors across varying contexts must do something to help teach students learn about the use of color.
= answer choice D

(Edit - my post count just broke into the 170s. Big day.)

Thank you!

We're like a weird dysfunctional family. Toby explained it a while ago but I couldn't find it; it was too long ago.

You're leaving out the dispensable part

guys go back and read posts from march. It's weird. No sense of humour, only LSAT.

I was clicking through the first few pages the other day and was wondering where all those people went
the OP is the only one still posts regularly

Bill's been around for a while too. I think many of the regular posters now are either June retakers, or originally had our sights on June, but jumped ship. (I fall into the latter category.)

Turns out Bill used to care about proper spelling/punctuation and such, fascinating!

Just reviewed the colored paper and paint problem yall were talking about recently. I missed it on my timed PT, but upon review, it seems that I just misread what the last sentence was doing.

Answer choice (A) is a really good "mishmash flaw" trap answer choice where they take something that was mentioned in the stimulus and connect it improperly to something else in the stimulus, making morons like me to think "OH golly that's goota be the answer! Yee haw!".

But for some reason, during the PT, answer choice (D) did not jump out at me, and it did during review.

It's bugging me why I can see it now so clearly but couldn't when I took the timed PT!

Does anyone know when will the school release their entering class profile for current year? Is there a deadline for them to do this?

Most schools have already posted this on their website, see the medians topic elsewhere on the board.
The deadline for the official record is early October.

Dumb question of the day:

Why is it a good thing that Sept registrations are down?


Thank you kindly,

The basic idea is this: less test takers smaller applicant pool easier to be admitted to desired institution
