could you please spell out acronyms at first use in each section? There are so many. I have no idea what POE means. How far back do I have to go to find it -I have no idea. This is a frequent issue.
Great analysis and explanations. However, I do not have time to draw the spectrum in 55 seconds and analyze where each answer belongs. Is there any way to give tips on how to speed up the process? I am often able to find correct answer, however, after the given time is up.
- Merely consistent with (they can't agree or disagree)
- At least one has no opinion
- Bait you to make an unwarranted assumption
- Appeal to biases
- Push answers over to agree / disagree side
Patterns in the right answers
- Right answers are not ideal answers! Look for the best answers
- Choose the answer that both speakers agree / disagree with
- Often their agreement / disagreement for a certain answer choice could be weakly implied; however, that can be right as long as they're relatively stronger than others
#help can you elaborate? What do you mean to skip an answer if one speaker expresses no opinion? How do we approach that? Only go based off of an explicit opinion of the speaker that does?

2/2 on the last questions. first time getting them both right haha WOOHOOO
I am still confused on the difference between explicit and implicit
Yo I was in hunt mode for that last five-star question but D did look mega spicy, thanks for helping me realize that there are implicit stems.

Can someone explain what it means:
1. If the question the point at issue is explicit or if you can easily infer it, then you can go into hunt mode.
2. If the question the point at issue is implicit or if you are having a hard time identifying it, use POE.
I know this was already mentioned but I dont remember the difference between Explicit & Implicit.
What is POE?

If one speaker expresses on opinion, get rid of WHICH answer? I'm a little confused here
ugh sometimes it's necessary to make an assumption, but sometimes making an assumption is wrong. sigh
uhhh what's POE again lol??
#feedback please point me to the lesson where the concept of a 'stimulus' is thoroughly explained. i can't find it anywhere?
