Hi Sweetbugg3 —
Conditional statements involving “only” and “if” are very confusing to a lot of students — and so I try to explain the issue in a variety of different ways, because I’ve found that different explanations work better for different learners– sorry I couldn’t put one out there that was effective for you —
For additional general discussion of conditional statements, please check out lesson 13 —
For further specific discussion and practice with the phrases involving only and if check out lesson 18, as well as this video about LSAT vocab —
