I think exact replications of LSAT questions is not allowed. From what I remember this is damn near exact.

* If Hired, then Interviewed.

1) GI ---> JI;
~JI --> ~GI
2) JI --> LI
~LI --> ~JI
3) FI
4) FH --> KI
~KI --> ~FH
5) KH --> MI
~MI --> ~KH
6) MH --> LI + OH
~LI or ~OH --> ~MH


1. which one of the following could be true?
answer: gunself and three other applicants are the only applicants interviewed

GI --> (1)JI --> (2) LI, and FI (3 - we know F is interviewed).

2. if mayer is not interviewed, which one of the following must be true?
answer: fu is interviewed but kowalski is not hired

Rules (5) ~MI --> ~KH; we know that F is interviewed, so this must be true.


3. if gunself and five other applicants are the only applicants interviewed, and if exactly 3 applicants are hired, then which one of the following could be accurant list of the applicants hired?
answer: gunsel, jackson, lee[/quote]

We know from question 1 that if GI ---> (1)JI --> (2) LI, and FI (3 - we know F is interviewed).

Now If G is hired, no rules are violated;
If J is hired, no rules are violated.
If L is hired, no rules are violated.

So this could be the only applicants hired.
