LSAT Logical Reasoning
How do I solve LSAT parallel reasoning questions?
Short answer
Parallel reasoning questions ask for the same argumentative skeleton, not the same topic. Match conclusion type, support structure, and logical force.
What to do next
Write a skeleton using letters before reading choices: if A then B; not B; therefore not A, or some similar structure.
The common mistake
Choosing an answer with similar subject matter but different logic.
