By Their Powers Combined: Sudoku and LSAT // Logic Games [#20] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

When I teach LSAT games, one of the ways I introduce them is that they are like sudoku puzzles if you had to build your own grid every time and didn't have enough information to solve the puzzle. So I was pretty delighted when I worked the closest-to-actual-sudoku LSAT game I've ever seen.

Grouping Games: More Spaces Than Elements // Logic Games [#02] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

The first game we tackled was a pretty basic one-to-one order game (which you can see here: https://youtu.be/LjrkGN4oN5U). Unfortunately, not all games have the same number of elements as spaces. In this case, the second game from the June 1991 LSAT is a grouping game in which we re-use th

Easiest Game of All Time? PrepTest 2 Game 1 // Logic Games [#05] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

This is the first game from the October 1991 LSAT, and it completely flouts are typical understanding of an LSAT game. Usually, you can think of an LSAT game like a sudoku puzzle on steroids, with not nearly enough givens to complete a scenario. The questions then fill out the possibilitie

Basic Approach, Pacing, and Order Games // Logic Games [#01] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

The analytical reasoning section of the LSAT can feel like a sudoku puzzle without enough squares filled in—because that's exactly how it's designed. In this video, we'll take a look at the basic strategies for an LSAT game, including how to diagram the information you are given and then u

PrepTest 4 Game 2: The Web M.D. of LSAT Games // Logic Games [#14] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

Today, we look at the second game from the third section of the February 1992 LSAT. As I've gone on to work other games from this section, I would definitely not place this as the second game I would want to attempt. It's not terribly difficult, but any time you have a grouping game in whi

PrepTest 4 Game 1: Ranking Who Makes the Big Bucks? // Logic Games [#13] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

This is the first game from the games section of the February 1992 LSAT. We are now officially less than 30 years behind! In all seriousness, doing games this old has been interesting, as clearly there's at least one particular type of game that used to be super popular, but has waned in i

Mapping Games // Logic Games [#04] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

There are a couple different ways to think about (and build the diagram for) today's game. We look at the fourth game from the June 1991 LSAT, which can be considered a grouping game, but our task isn't so much grouping as arranging the elements in space. So our diagram, rather than being

Range Games and the Tree Branch Diagram // Logic Games [#03] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

Games in which your primary task is arrangement are usually easier than games in which your primary task is to place elements into groups. That is true even for a kind of strange sub-type of an ordering games called a range game. We look today at the third game from the June 1991 LSAT, whi

PrepTest 2 Game 2: The LSAT Taketh Away // Logic Games [#06] [Analytical Reasoning]

After the way we CRUSHED the first game of this section (https://youtu.be/fJpLNI3O_R0), it is perhaps to be expected that the section would strike back. This second game from the October 1991 LSAT test is a doozy. It's a grouping game in which we don't know the sizes of the groups, which i

PrepTest 3 Game 2: 1-to-1 Order Game (with Mapping) // Logic Games [#10][LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

Happy New Year! I did not intend to take such a long break from LSAT games, but sometimes you gotta re-charge the batteries. Literally, like, on my LED lighting set up, I had to re-charge the batteries. This is the second game from the December 1991 LSAT. In the first game of this section

PrepTest 90 Game 2: Complex Consequence Questions // Logic Games [#28] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

On to the second game of LSAT PrepTest 90, a beautiful little two-dimensional order game. This is a wonderful example of a game where the setup does not determine difficulty or pacing. Rather the final question throws us for a loop and almost doubles the amount of time we have to spend in

PrepTest 57 Game 3: The 2D In-Out Dinosaur Game // Logic Games [#29] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

Decided to jump to a game I saw mentioned on the LSAT subreddit today: the dinosaur game (from LSAT PrepTest 57). Apparently this one is somewhat notorious. It's a two-dimensional in and out game where we know the sizes of the in- and out-sides. Subscribe: http://bit.ly/SubTimRicchuiti |

PrepTest 2 Game 3: A Grouping Game With No Elements // Logic Games [#07] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

We continue our journey through all three-hundred-ish official LSAT releases with the third game of the October 1991 LSAT. This is not necessarily what I would call a hard game, except for two wrinkles: a strange set-up (particularly strange in how short it is and how little it gives you)
