Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?f=225&t=35163)
The correct answer choice is (E)
If L rows at seat 3, then according to our sequence, M must row at seat 1 and S must row at seat 2:
Because either L or O must row last, and L is already assigned to seat 3, we can also deduce that O must row at seat 6:
The only remaining choice is the positioning of V and Z, and since the two do not have a direct relationship, either can row at seat 4 or 5:
Answer choices (A), (B), (C), and (D): Each of these answer choices could be true and therefore each is incorrect.
Answer choice (E): This is the correct answer choice. As proven by the diagram above, since S rows at seat 2, S can never row immediately behind Z, which must row at seat 4 or 5.
