LSAT 84, Logic Game 1, Question 2, LSATHacks

This question places T 6th. You should look at the diagram and see what other variables are affected. T has two people after it, L and M. Since T is 6th, those must fill spaces 7 and 8, in either order:

(The comma indicates that L and M are reversible – this is a quick way of drawing it)

The only people left to draw on the diagram are SO, RVZ. This section of the diagram:

You should practice looking at the main diagram in slices. Since T, L and M are on the diagram, they melt away from the main diagram and what’s above is what’s left. Now you can focus on placing it on the diagram. Since there is nothing before S – O, those go first:

R, V and Z go next, in either order. At this point, you should see if this solves the question. It does, A is CORRECT.

Note that it’s perfectly possible to do this question in your head – I did. But, the diagrams are there as a backup if you find it hard to visualize using the main diagram alone.
