E failed in my mind because of the final clause about "spruces and firs in SUCH forests." Meaning, all the trees are in the same forest, though E tries to talk about maples in a DIFFERENT forest from spruces and firs.
Hi! Does anyone know how to "blind review" before looking at the correct answer choice? It doesn't seem to be an option. It only says "finish" and then it shows me the answer. I also cannot see the timer while doing the question, has this happened for anyone else?
I think it’s easier to see why choice E is wrong if you highlight that the second mention of “forests” clarifies that all three tree types—sugar maples, spruces, and firs—are in the same forests. The phrase “such forests” shows they share the same environment and acid rain exposure, which weakens E’s point about native areas.
Unsure how C is correct answer when the questions never once mentions them drawing calcium from another source that is not accessible by sugar maples. Isn't that just a hypothesis that is not supported by the argument?
Took me too long to finish this one. Like 3 minutes. Sometimes it's hard to discern when to write causal or conditional relationships down on paper vs. when to just keep them as information in your head. Notating relationships on paper is too time consuming to do for every problem with conditional and causal relationships, despite being immensely helpful. This problem, I'm presuming should have taken about 1 minute and 30 seconds.
my advice would be to identify the two subjects at odds with each other in the passage. and then look for the answer choice that reconciles those two subjects. you can automatically eliminate any answer that doesn't include both subjects.
Is anyone mapping these out? I am curious because I am not. It comes easier to me than MBT questions for some reason. MBT will forever be an enemy and potentially final boss unless future questions give me more trouble.
I feel like these questions are so much easier than the ‘must be true’ questions. I got like all of the MST questions wrong and all of the RRE questions right so far
Isn't E already stated in the stimulus but in a different sense?

I think RRE questions are my favorite, so far I am crushing these yay.

finally got a question right (ಥ◡ಥ). Heck yea brother

I hate how they ask us science questions, like im here cause I sucked at science
what makes this hard for me is that I feel im assuming each time I read the answer choices.
Need to lock in.

this is the first question I got right...
I commented "got it" on the blind review and GOT it wrong lol.

I was totally bated by A, grrrrr....but wasn't a bad answer (as bad as others...), but just starting my journey, got 6 months to turn this around
I'm able to find the right answer by eliminating the obvious wrong ones and using POE. Can anyone share their approach to these types of questions?
Read the answers too quickly and chose D, thinking it says maple trees require more calcium than spruces.. Completely ignored summer etc.
These all seem so easy compared to the MBT questions. The answers seem so obvious its like a trap.
"you're a winner! you're calcium deficient!" LOL bc same
omg I read the answer choices too quickly and chose B. Moral of the story!! do not read so fast!! double check answer choice!!!!
I got it correct! but B ALMOST had me. I enjoyed how he explained it with the comparison *
acid rained on

#feedback towards the end of paragraph 4 it states "less-than-idea" but I think it should say "less-than-ideal"
ty!
#feedback this guy is so funny
