I'm working on the LR on the June 2008 LSAT. First section, question 16 about the good/bad hunters and the cats. Any thoughts on how to solve this question? Thanks  Grin

That's actually PT 54, second section.

You know that all good hunters have a high muscle to fat ratio.

GH --> HMFR

You also know that most wild cats are GH.  Thus most wild cats have HMFR.
Finally, you know that some domestic cats are GH.  Thus some domestic cats have HMFR.

Since there are some domestic cats with HMFR, there are some cats with HMFR which are domestic.

Yeah, that's the one. I meant the first section of LR, but no matter.

Is there a way to connect those ideas faster? I can reason it out, but I'm not fast at it. Any tips?

Thanks  Grin

Practice. 

Some people think of these in terms of conditionals.  Others do venn diagrams.  Others just try to keep track intuitively.  Experiment with all of these and see which way clicks best.  Then practice more.
