less seriously

1. She studies more seriously than you.
2. She does not study less seriously than you.
I'd like to know whether the two sentences mean the same.
Thanks a lot.

They do not necessarily mean the same. The second could mean that she studies as seriously as you, but not more seriously than you.

How about " She does not study as casually/slightly/lightly as you do?" Thanks.
