Hi, can you please explain how to do this problem? I got C, not D. I had the most difficulty with this game in the section, so wondering if I missed certain inferences that could have helped me get the right answers faster.

Hi Serah!

This game doesn't have a lot of easy inferences, but it may be helpful to draw out some templates for it. Check out the setup and templates that Jeremy made here: https://forum.powerscore.com/lsat/viewtopic.php?t=31319.

If you don't go into this question with templates, you may have to do multiple mini-diagrams to test out the different answer choices. The one thing we know for sure is that if L is on Friday, it must be on Friday morning.

(C) is incorrect because I can do a setup with L on Friday and still have J and K on the same day:

AM __H__ __J__ __L__

PM _____ __K__ __G__
           W     Th      F

(D) is correct because I can't put K and H on the same day if L is on Friday.

If I try to put K and H on Wednesday, J would have to be on Thursday, which means G would be on Friday, but that would give us more than one other client scheduled between K and G.

If I try to put K and H on Thursday, J would have to be on Monday, which means G would need to be on Thursday, but there's no room left on Thursday.

Hope this helps!

Best,
Kelsey
