Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=7800)
The correct answer choice is (A)
If you made the requisite Not Laws at the setup stage, this Global, Cannot Be True question
should only take a few seconds.
Answer choice (A): This is the correct answer choice. Since T must be visited seventh, and no
destination is visited in two consecutive weeks, it follows that T cannot be visited sixth.
Answer choice (B) is incorrect, because there are no rules prohibiting M from being visited fifth.
Answer choice (C) is incorrect, because J could be visited sixth without violating any of the
conditions in the game. In that scenario, G would have to be visited twice – once in week 5 in
compliance with the fourth rule, and once in weeks 2 or 3 in compliance with the third rule.
Answer choice (D) is incorrect, because the rules do not prevent J from being visited third.
Answer choice (E) is incorrect, because G could be visited third. To conclude otherwise would be
to make a Mistaken Reversal of the fourth rule. Remember: G does not require J to be visited
immediately after it, and so G could be visited third even if J cannot be visited fourth.
