Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=14136)
The correct answer choice is (C)
If I is the third school to which juices are delivered, then from the inference resulting from the fourth rule, H must be the first school to which juices are delivered (and H also must be the fourth school to which snacks are delivered):
From the second rule, G cannot be the fourth school to which juices are delivered, and so G must be the second school to which juices are delivered, leaving F to be the fourth school to which juices are delivered:
The only uncertainty in the game, then, is the order of the F and I snack deliveries. Thus, in a Could Be True question such as this one, you should immediately seek answer choices that contain the F or I (and preferably both since each answer choice references two schools) snacks deliveries. Only answer choices (C) and (D) qualify, and answer choice (C) is superior because it contains both F and I. Because the snacks could be delivered to F at some time before they are delivered to I, answer choice (C) could be true and is therefore correct.
