LR Patterns? Help?

Post by sreiter18 » Mon Apr 29, 2013 12:48 pm

I constantly hear about LR patterns and how they are as predictable as LG. I was wondering if someone could explain these patterns or what to look for when you're continuously taking PT's? I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, I just can't seem to pick it up like I can on LG.

Thanks!

If you look at the method of solving LR questions in the assumption family (sufficient/necessary assumption, flaw, weaken, strength, principle support) it is exactly the same for each question.

1. Identify task
2. Find conclusion
3. Find supporting premises
4. Find gap
5. Eliminate answer choice that are clearly wrong
6. Review remaining answer choices

These question types make up a disproportionately large percentage of the test, so if you master this process you're well on your way to 170+
