After a long stretch of procrastinating when I finally start to feel my impending doom pressing down on me.washingtonorbust wrote:What time do you guys find is easiest for you to study? I generally try to wake up earlier and do it in the morning, because right now it's 5:19 and I'm dying
I have the Trainer, LG Bible, LSAC Superprep, Manhattan LR, and ~90% of the preptests in pdf format.mysojuli wrote:What prep books is everyone here using?
You're right... I guess it depends on the individual's starting point. If someone's diagnostic is low he'll probably need to learn the basics from books instead of doing sink or swim.mysojuli wrote:I disagree with your statement. I think prep books teach the foundation. If you jump into the PTs with no foundation, you will be wasting exams. The prep books teaches you foundation, and the PTs helps you apply your foundation. Both serve to compliment each other.
Regardless if you have a prep book let's be serious..you will still procrastinate. Like really zD do you want to be doing logic games Friday night??

Is it even possible to do the contrapositive for "some" statements? I thought that was only for conditionals.Motivator9 wrote:Guys, I just had a huge brain fart. Some help please.
Can you take the contrapositive of Some A is B (A <--s-->B)??
Would it be Some ~B are not ~A (~B<--s-->~S)
This is driving me crazy!!!

Mist, good seeing you here!mist4bison wrote:I think even if a person's diag isn't low, they probably need to work on fundamentals. If oyu do BR after your diag and get a 180, then wow. Screw books. Just do PTs. If you don't get a 180 on BR, then at least some basic concepts are missing and you need to work on concepts, which makes books come in handy.RZ5646 wrote:You're right...

Also, someone above mentioned using 90% of the available PTs. I'd suggest not using those all for PTing, but instead for drilling, which is where you'll really learn the concepts and perfect your accuracy.
Thanks.RZ5646 wrote:Is it even possible to do the contrapositive for "some" statements? I thought that was only for conditionals.Motivator9 wrote:Guys, I just had a huge brain fart. Some help please.

In symbolic logic, "all" statements translate to conditionals with universal quantifiers. For example, "all A are B" is ∀x(Ax --> Bx). On the other hand, "some" statements are conjunctions with existential qualifiers: "some A is B" is ∃x(Ax*Bx). With double negation and DeMorgan's law you can convert that conjunction to a conditional, but it will always be inside a negation.
If you do some scribbling you can infer a few things from " Some A is B" in this way, but they're all pretty trivial:
~ (~some A is B) ......... "it is not the case that no A is B"
~(~some B is A) .......... "it is not the case that no B is A"
~(all B are ~A) ............. "not every B is ~A"
~(all A are ~B) ............. "not every A is ~B"
Hopefully that's helpful. If you want, I can post the derivations in detail.

Four weeks to study - time spent on finals = an ambitious but not unreasonable goal.
Now there's a charge.
