Re: LSAT Flaw Question Tips

As you have asked about the LSAT flaw questions tips, I am giving you infomraiton about it
Flaw in the Reasoning questions require you to identify the underlying logical flaw in the argument.

These questions ask you to recognize what's wrong with an argument. Most of these questions require you to point out a fallacy in the argument. These should be easy because we have an extensive section above covering the most common logical flaws.

Here are typical flaw questions:

Which one of the following contains a flaw that most closely parallels the flaw contained in the passage?
Which one of the following best identifies the flaw in the above argument?
In presenting her position, the author does which one of the following?

Flaw in the Reasoning questions are just like Method of Reasoning questions: both represent an attempt to measure your understanding of abstract argument structure, and both contain answer choices that can be proven or disproven by directly referring to the content in the stimulus.
It can be identifies by considering points given below

Uncertain use of a term or a concept (error of equivocation)
Source arguments (“ad hominem” attacks)
Circular reasoning
Mistaken cause and effect
Error of conditional reasoning
Straw man
Errors in the use of evidence (including survey-based errors)
Internal contradictions
Appeal to opinion/authority
Overgeneralizations
Errors in the use of numerical evidence
