Real outcomes
It's not the conclusion. It's
the argument structure.
Critical thinking students lose points for unargued conclusions, fallacies they didn't catch, or argument structures that weren't mapped clearly. AskSia tightens those.
3.2->3.8+0.6
For LSAT logical reasoning I drilled assumption questions with AskSia. Score climbed 8 points in three weeks of targeted practice with the missed pattern types.
3.0->3.7+0.7
The GRE analytical writing helper outlined my issue essay with structure cited to ETS rubric criteria. Hit a 5.5 on the practice section.
