Diagram

by ManhattanPrepLSAT2 Thu Oct 27, 2011 4:39 pm

Here is a possible diagram for this game. This diagram was made in conjunction with our October LSAT Review Workshop, and Manhattan LSAT students can also watch a recording of that workshop.

Keep in mind that, as always, the diagram is not meant to represent a "definitive" way to set up a game, but rather just one very effective approach. Different Manhattan LSAT instructors will set up different games in different ways, and deciding which inferences to keep in your head and which ones to note down is always a subjective process -- as long as your diagram helps you keep straight a clear understanding of the game, and helps you take command of the rules, you'll be in great shape.

If you have alternative suggestions for how to diagram this game, we'd love to hear them. Enjoy!

I framed this, one with N in one with K in.

The frame with N was complete with NOL in and L on Z and KJ out.

The second frame had K in and N out the other three OJL needing to be placed, 2 in 1 out and we have rules for that.

in general i tend to frame games with mismatches and conditional rules. i tend to slip on the conditional rules under pressure.

This game reminded me a lot of the dinosaur game from June 09.

I diagramed mine similar to the one in the first post, but I also used a conditional chain diagram (I think that's what it's called) as well. But upon review, framing this game would have made it far easier as if N is in, all is known pretty much except which specific places, but that can be figured out as each question comes.
