Although this is targeted to students preparing to take the GMAT, as I get ready to take the LSAT, I also found this tactic to be very helpful for identifying the conclusion in argumentation.
For sure. Everything I teach for solving Critical Reasoning questions on the GMAT is relevant to certain LSAT question types as well. It's all logical reasoning. Glad you found it helpful!
Thanks for sharing. Can you kindly help me understand the following - Despite the popularity of vitamin and mineral supplements, people taking them are not giving themselves any significant nutritional advantage. Vitamins and minerals derived from fresh fruits and vegetables have far more potency than those processed in pill form. Not long ago, the Surgeon General recommended that people consume five servings of fruit and vegetables each day. I can say 'why' to the 1st and 3rd sentences above. What's next here?
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "why" to the 1st and 3rd sentences. I'm assuming you mean answer choices A and C? Here's a link to the full question (CR) with answer choices, in case anyone else is curious: gmatclub.com/forum/despite-the-popularity-of-vitamin-and-mineral-supplements-people-taki-241442.html. This is a "Find the Assumption" question, and a good strategy for finding assumptions is what I call the "Negation Technique" (I teach it in detail in my course). If you negate the answer choices, only with answer choice E does the argument fall apart. Hence, it's the correct answer. If you want me to further clarify why answer choices A and C are wrong, let me know. Hope this helps!
