Summary
The content provides an in-depth analysis of how to approach and solve a 'weaken the argument' question on the LSAT, focusing on understanding the argument's conclusion, evidence, and assumptions.
  • Identifying the conclusion and evidence within an argument is crucial for answering weaken questions.
  • Understanding the argument's main assumption is key to finding the correct answer.
  • The future resembling the past is a common assumption in arguments predicting future outcomes.
  • Analyzing each answer choice methodically to see how it affects the argument's assumption is essential.
  • The correct answer choice will directly challenge the argument's main assumption, thereby weakening the argument.
