Mental Block

[George]

So after lesson 7 I decided to try my hands on an LSAT test from the SuperPrep2. I had stopped at the 2ND grouping games where I felt I had a block. My initial thought was how challenging is the grouping games.
But optimistic that by lesson 12 I should be able to solve partial defined and undefined grouping games.
Any ideas and advice is most welcomed.

Hi George,

Thanks for the question! The answer is practice, practice, practice. Grouping games can be hard, but you can master them; the secret to mastering them is to do lots of them. After you complete such a game, you want to really spend a lot of time going back over it: What inferences did you miss? Was there a rule you misapplied? What type of question gave you the most trouble? Then, use that information to do targeted review of the course material and to attack the next game with an improved strategy. You can do this! Avoid giving up and keep ploughing through them, spending the time it takes to really "get" it. Good luck!
