Did you know some types of logic puzzles are part of the entrance exam for law school?  Perplexing Placement Puzzles are a type of logic puzzle involving sequential ordering skills.  We don’t use these because they are on the LSAT; but we do use them for the same reason!  These puzzles promote perseverance and higher order thinking.  They are challenging and engaging!

There are four episodes in this series.  The first two puzzles are linear, and the last two are 2-dimensional.  New strategies and questioning will be discussed with each episode.
