I just want to confirm the following rule would be diagrammed as a double arrow:

"If A is not interviewed then B must be interviewed, and if B is interviewed than A cannot be interviewed"

A :arrow: B
B :arrow: A

A :dbl: B

And that diagram means that A will always be with B? So, because this is an in and out grouping game they will never be in the same group?

Also, this is from the 2017 Edition LSAT Logic Games Bible Workbook in the practice drills on page 12 of Chapter One.

Hi Lusting,

Think of it more as when ever B is around (B), A won't be there (A). So, in a two group game of any type, if B shows up in a group, A is out. and, via the contrapositive of the underlying rules, whenever a appears in a group, B won't be there. A and B literally will not appear in the same group together.

Thanks!
