I genuinely can't see how a mention of modern bones become the overall conclusion.. this conclusión answer choice sounds more like an assumption to me. I'm so confused on this question. Please help
im so annoyed. i chose answer choice C right away and told myself to look back and read it over a little more and dive deeper. ended up choosing answer choice A after wasting all that time. always trust your gut
When reviewing if we see this page it shows us the answer which doesnt help if retaking the question since we are already biased having seen the answer.
or!!!!
Just make the arrow go to the question no matter what!!! we should never see the answer first, that just defeats the purpose of the whole thing.
Chose A because I felt like C stated "ALL" Paleontologists by not restating the claim in the stimulus of "Some Paleologists". I gotta long way to go I suppose. I see how A is merely a major premise.
the new curriculum is so much more helpful. in the nicest way possible, the previous curriculum explanations were so disjointed and confusing. these explanations are calm and make so much sense.
This was very easy and it does not make me feel proud for the fact that I got the right answer within seconds. I am pretty sure that going further more I will face much more complex alternatives that will mess up with my self esteem.
This was far too easy. I think it's starting to click. I'll admit that I thought for a second it could have been A because I had seen it directly after "This is unlikely". However, I just reminded myself that I'm only looking for the author's direct conclusion, and that conclusion is simply to negate the suggestion of "some paleontologists". I anticipated the right answer before finding it. That made the "hunt" for the right answer much easier. This took me overall probably 20 seconds. So much better than I performed on my diagnostic!
For clarification: I literally did not read past the author's conclusion and the premise following the first "because". All I still know about this stimulus was that there are broken legs involved. No more than that. Ultimately, I know the author is against the paleontologists. :)
So I was trying to think of what the assumptions were before he explained them in the video. So I paused. For the second assumption, I came up with "we assume that the calculations would indicate that the legs would have broken etc."
But the correct assumption was that if the dino broke its legs while galloping, it would not have galloped. So obvious that I missed it.
Would my original assumptions still be a valid assumption related specifically to the "main point"
I noticed the blind review lesson is waaayy down below Logical Reasoning and Reading Comprehension. Is it worth doing it first in order to fully take advantage of the practice questions?
I thought I had this and got cocky and skimmed both the stimulus and the question/answers. Chose A because of this arrogance. Now I feel silly. Lesson learned lol
#feedback Not sure if this is just me but not all the videos have a speed adjuster and so if I want to change the speed I need to find one that does and change it there.
I came down to letter C and D but ultimately thought D was the correct option. I do not fully understand why letter option D is not the correct answer? I was under the impression that we could use "If --> then" with all LR questions? The video mentioned using it for weakening/strengthening questions, is it safe to say we never use it for MC questions?
#help am i supposed to have taken pt165 before doing this? I'm confused abt the blind review check thing

For those who are just starting practice questions, it is very helpful to start an error journal with these.

Everyone saying it’s easy while i was STRUGGLING

Should I be reading the context under each video even though I watched the video?

For the purposes of studying and PTs, how significant is the priority of the question?

Are there any videos for these lessons? All I see is written answers choices and no question.
on the test how should we annotate bc we cant markup the test like you do if its online?
I clicked C at first and then in BR I clicked A. Where did I go wrong?
so assumptions are not relevant to main point questions - more common on strengthen/weaken?
