You talk about the All Statements based on "All carrots are vegetables". This statement is a logical statement, and makes sense in the real world. Would there be a scenario on the LSAT where they ask you to make deductions on the S & N Statement of "All vegetables are carrots"? Would be take that to be true if stated? Where is the line of knowing its actually false in real life? Thanks!

Thanks for the question! They could theoretically give you and have actually given S&N statements that might not be 100% empirically accurate. You take that to be true if stated. If something is explicitly stated on the LSAT, even if you know it’s false in real life, you accept it as true for the purposes of the test. So if the test says all vegetables are carrots, then all vegetables are carrots. Usually, the examples aren’t this extreme, but it’s certainly within the realm of possibility.
Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any other questions that you might have.
