Struggling to Pick the Right Answer Between Two on LSAT Logical Reasoning

[enemylap]

I've made solid progress in the Logical Reasoning section of the LSAT, but I'm still running into a frustrating pattern: I frequently narrow a question down to two choices, and then end up picking the wrong one. This happened multiple times on PrepTest 85 — specifically questions 9, 13, 18, 19, and 22.

I've noticed this occurs most often with Weaken, Strengthen, and Flaw question types. My issue seems to be overthinking or second-guessing myself — I either talk myself out of the correct answer or fail to spot a subtle distinction between the choices.

I’m looking for advice on how to make more consistent, confident decisions when stuck between two tempting answers. Are there proven techniques or mindset shifts that can help sharpen accuracy and improve my final choice? I want to better trust my logic and avoid overanalyzing or doubting the correct response.

Thanks in advance for any insights or tips!
