I struggle with the MBF ones I think. But I think it’s easier to do them via POE if I just find the ones that could be true. Because if it could be true, it can’t be always false.
Oops, missed the "reject" part of the question -- definitely will be specifically highlighting that in the question stem moving forward as to not make the same mistake again
God I got this right but for the wrong reasons! I missed the "reject" part and was looking for one that would be accepted by the principle. I immediately eliminated the first four answer choices because they were obviously out of scope, and picked the right answer because I thought it conformed to the principle. Man.
I got confused here because I presumed that it's understood that once a domestic cleaner comes into your home. Your home is automatically a workplace until they leave.
I was dumb and answered D but got E on the blind review. Honestly I have a hard time with MBF questions, my brain equates the right answer with whats true.
I knew the answer was E, but still i was so confused about how to approach this question when going to the answers. but i think i figured it out and maybe it'll help u too.
I basically just went through the answers giving them "true" or "false" labels.
bc this is a MBF question, 4 should be true and 1 must be false.
So, based on the info we learned in the stimulus, labelling true or false on each answer with POE can make it sooo much simpler (at least for me). yay
I was SO CLOSE To picking C then I was like WAIT what does provide the basis of rejecting mean. Sorry had to cheat and googled that it means its a "must be false question". That's the only reason I got that question right. Now I know for the future HOW important it is to read the question stem!
I feel that may statement can vouch for most people that picked answer choice C is due to how the questions was written. The word choice made it confusing for me to choose E over C until there was video explanation of what the question was specifically asking.
Can someone explain to me why it is unreasonable to assume that banning smoking in workplaces offers some protection to people outside of their workplaces? Those people presumably have some protection from secondhand smoke when they visit other people's workplaces, such as grocery stores or restaurants.
I see why E is correct, but I fail to understand why C isn't also correct. Are we living in a hypothetical world where no one is ever a customer or visitor in someone else's workplace?
@JessHyder The difference between C and E is that C merely provides support for the stimulus instead of being rejected by the stimulus like E is (anti-supported).
C is claiming that the law offers no protection from 2nd hand smoke outside the workplace, the passage is simply confirming this idea. Therefore, C wouldn't be rejected by the stimulus because it doesn't fall on the anti-support side of the spectrum, as E does.
@JessHyder We don't know for a fact that there are no other laws in place that may protect people from second hand smoke. We know it IS prohibited in the workplace and is NOT prohibited at home. This opens up doors for there to be laws such as "no smoking allowed in public restrooms" which is not a workplace and is not a home but can be governed.
I find it best to imagine a world where anything and everything can happen!

#help is it possible to add tags for "rule/carve out". This is extremely helpful approach in these videos.

@AliaAli yayy
@Christuck.r felt that exact way in blind review. Lol
The only reason you can get this right is if you use POE otherwise it's likee whaat noww?
mbt and mbf are my shit I love this
Got my first level 4 MBF correct! I got the right answer, and when I did blind review I agreed with my original answer. (+00:49)

Ok, got it right but I was 48 seconds over.
Having this 'supposed' to be done in 1min is absolutely diabolical. 1:24 here. But correct is correct.
LETS GO ANOTHER DUB
I see many people now confused why it isn't C
Carefully read the question stem - which provides a basis for REJECTING (not supporting) the claim?
Can someone explain to me why it is unreasonable to assume that banning smoking in workplaces offers some protection to people outside of their workplaces? Those people presumably have some protection from secondhand smoke when they visit other people's workplaces, such as grocery stores or restaurants.
