Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=10917)
The correct answer choice is (E)
If you had diagrammed all the relevant Not-Laws in this game, this question would be exceptionally easy to answer. Creating Not Laws in Pure Sequencing games, however, rarely pays off. This is partly because the sequencing rules tend to generate too many Not Laws to diagram in a short amount of time (there are 14 Not-Laws in this game). Yes, they would have helped here, but then again it’s not a difficult question to answer even without Not-Laws.
Answer choice (A) is incorrect, because F could easily be on Tuesday as long as H is on Monday.
Answer choice (B) is incorrect, because H could be on Tuesday as long as F is on Monday.
Answer choice (C) is incorrect, because K could be on Tuesday if F is on Monday.
Answer choice (D) is incorrect, because M could be on Tuesday if F is on Monday.
Answer choice (E) is the correct answer choice, because there must be at least two librarians (F and K) on duty earlier than Z.
