The material presents multiple sections, including Logical Reasoning and Analytical Reasoning, each with specific timing and question directions emphasizing selecting the best answer and avoiding implausible assumptions. Example questions use short arguments and passages to test reasoning structure, strengthen/weaken conclusions, assess assumptions, and evaluate scientific validity under hypothetical scenarios.

SECTION IV  \n1-2- 1 1  \nSECTION I  \nTime—35 minutes  \n24 Questions  \nDirections: The questions in this section are based on the reasoning contained in brief statements or passages. For some questions, more than one of the choices could conceivably answer the question. However, you are to choose the best answer; that is, the response that most accurately and completely answers the question. You should not make assumptions that are by commonsense standards implausible, superfluous, or incompatible with the passage. After you have chosen the best answer, blacken the corresponding space on your answer sheet.  \n1. Physician: In itself, exercise does not cause heart  \nattacks; rather, a sudden increase in an exercise regimen can be a cause. When people of any physical condition suddenly increase their amount of exercise, they also increase their risk of heart attack. As a result, there will be an increased risk of heart attack among employees of this company due to the new health program.  \nThe conclusion drawn by the physician follows logically if which one of the following is assumed?  \n(A) Employees will abruptly increase their amount of exercise as a result of the new health program.  \n(B) The exercises involved in the new health program are more strenuous than those in the previous health program.  \n(C) The new health program will force employees of all levels of health to exercise regularly.  \n(D) The new health program constitutes a sudden change in the company’s policy.  \n(E) All employees, no matter what their physical condition, will participate in the new health program.  \n2. Last month OCF, Inc., announced what it described as a unique new product: an adjustable computer workstation. Three days later ErgoTech unveiled an almost identical product. The two companies claim that the similarities are coincidental and occurred because the designers independently reached the same solution to the same problem. The similarities are too fundamental to be mere coincidence, however. The two products not only look alike, but they also work alike. Both are oddly shaped with identically placed control panels with the same types of controls. Both allow the same types of adjustmentsand the same types of optional enhancements. The main point of the argument is that  \n(A) the two products have many characteristics in common  \n(B) ErgoTech must have copied the design of its new product from OCF’s design  \n(C) the similarities between the two products are not coincidental  \n(D) product designers sometimes reach the same solution to a given problem without consulting each other  \n(E) new products that at first appear to be unique are sometimes simply variations of other products  \nQuestions 3–4  \nAn anthropologist hypothesized that a certain medicinal powder contained","cbCaifr8a7xylAg5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifr8a7xylAg5","pdf",521711,7,1,35,"English","en",105,"# SECTION I\n## Logical Reasoning (Time—35 minutes, 24 Questions)\n# SECTION II\n## Analytical Reasoning\n# SECTION III\n## Reading Comprehension\n# SECTION IV\n## Logical Reasoning","[{\"question\":\"What kinds of reasoning skills are tested in the example questions shown?\",\"answer\":\"The questions assess assumptions that make conclusions follow, strengthen or undermine arguments, and evaluate validity of claims in hypothetical scientific scenarios.\"}]","LSAT PrepTest 38 - October 2002 - Logical Reasoning & Analytical Reasoning | PDF",1788063437,88,{"code":4,"msg":32,"data":33},"ok",{"site_id":25,"language":24,"slug":34,"title":13,"keywords":35,"description":14,"schema_data":36,"social_meta":79,"head_meta":81,"extra_data":83,"updated_unix":29},"lsat-preptest-38-october-2002-logical-reasoning-analytical-reasoning","",{"@graph":37,"@context":78},[38,54,69],{"@type":39,"itemListElement":40},"BreadcrumbList",[41,45,49,52],{"item":42,"name":43,"@type":44,"position":21},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":46,"name":47,"@type":44,"position":48},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":50,"name":12,"@type":44,"position":51},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":53,"name":13,"@type":44,"position":11},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/lsat-preptest-38-october-2002-logical-reasoning-analytical-reasoning/160441/",{"url":53,"name":13,"@type":55,"author":56,"headline":13,"publisher":58,"fileFormat":61,"inLanguage":24,"description":14,"dateModified":62,"datePublished":63,"encodingFormat":61,"isAccessibleForFree":64,"interactionStatistic":65},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":57},"Person",{"url":42,"name":59,"@type":60},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-09-05","2026-08-30",true,{"@type":66,"interactionType":67,"userInteractionCount":20},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":68},"ViewAction",{"@type":70,"mainEntity":71},"FAQPage",[72],{"name":73,"@type":74,"acceptedAnswer":75},"What kinds of reasoning skills are tested in the example questions shown?","Question",{"text":76,"@type":77},"The questions assess assumptions that make conclusions follow, strengthen or undermine arguments, and evaluate validity of claims in hypothetical scientific scenarios.","Answer","https://schema.org",{"og:url":53,"og:type":80,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":59,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":82,"canonical":53},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":25},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":85},[86,90,94,97,102,107,111,116,121,124,128],{"id":21,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":87,"show_sort_weight":88,"slug":89},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":48,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":91,"show_sort_weight":92,"slug":93},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":95,"slug":96},70,"exam",{"id":98,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":99,"show_sort_weight":100,"slug":101},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":103,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":104,"show_sort_weight":105,"slug":106},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":108,"show_sort_weight":109,"slug":110},"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":112,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":113,"show_sort_weight":114,"slug":115},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":117,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":118,"show_sort_weight":119,"slug":120},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":119,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":122,"show_sort_weight":119,"slug":123},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":125,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":126,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":127},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":129,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":47,"category_name":130,"show_sort_weight":98,"slug":131},19,"General","general"]
