welcome to lsat 101!
today we'll be covering conditional statements. consider the following:
if it rains, i will bring an umbrella.
this means that if you see me without an umbrella, it must not have rained. let's symbolize that:
rain -> umbrella
~umbrella -> ~rain
now this one:
"only experts can recognize a phony work of art."
that means that *if* you can recognize a phony, *then* you must be an expert.
recognize phony -> expert
~expert -> ~recognize phony
now, if you're like me, you watch "glee."
(like m -> watch "glee")
and this week they sang "only the good die young"
if you're even more like me, you immediately think of the conditional statement this billy joel tune implies:
die young -> good
~good -> ~die young
