For fun, I thought I would post an LSAT question that I missed, and you can see how you do. To simulate the test you should limit yourself to about a minute and a half. The question:

Trust, which cannot be sustained in the absence of mutual respect, is essential for any long lasting relationship, personal or professional. However, personal relationships, such as marriage and friendship, additionally require natural affinity. If a personal relationship is to endure, it must be supported by the twin pillars of mutual respect and affinity.

If the statements above are true, then which one of the following must also be true?

(A) A friendship supported solely by trust and mutual respect will not be long lasting.
(B) In the context of any professional relationship, mutual respect presupposes trust.
(C) If a personal relationship is supported by mutual respect and affinity, it will last a long time.
(D) Personal relationships, such as marriage of friendship, are longer lasting that professional relationships.
(E) Basing a marriage on a natural affinity will ensure that it will endure.

Note: Don't pick the answer that you agree with, pick the answer that follows logically from the statement. Email me at sexualharrisment@hotmail.com, and I'll respond and tell you if your right.
