    This was challenging. I have met a match here.

    I'm still confused about the Naive assumption part? Like is this something we are supposed to come up with and actively look to counteract in the AC's?

    @IsabellaP Naive assumptions are not a reliable strategy, i find it better to try and focus on explaining the phenomenon with the ACs and seeing which one explains it the best rather than coming up with an explanation myself and hunting for a similar situation.

    do i really need to watch all of these videos going over the questions or is it better to just do it myself and focus on the questions

    @gpigalicious fr...if i got the question right and already know WHY i got it right, isn't it waste of time to watch the vid? or will it somehow subconsciously help like what

    @gpigalicious what I did was tried the question myself and if I got it right AND could explain why my answer was right and all others are wrong, move on. if not, watch the video.

    @gpigalicious agreed lol it genuinely feels like a waste of time

    @gpigalicious For myself, I watch the videos first to get the thought process behind, and then as we do more problems, I answer the question first, then I go watch the explanation.

    if i can narrow down an RRE question to two answer choices, what's a good question/statement/phrase I can think of in the moment to ground me and remind me what i'm really looking for?

    I find these questions to be a lot easier and less time consuming if you dont come up with your own assumptions because that will just confuse you more. I just skim through the answer choices quickly, choose one I think would answer the question of "why could this be?", and then use process of elimination on the rest of them to confirm my answer choice.

    @jamandaa fs. POE seems much more efficient than hunting for these questions

    Quick question, when you guys get these correct, do you always watch the video after?

    @TylerMadani021 I try to do it myself first and then watch the video if I'm unsure at all. If I was hesitant between answers/confused about wording, I watch the vid. But if I have no doubt at all, I just look at the lightbulb explanations quickly

    @TylerMadani021 I got this far and never even realized we could be doing these questions. thank you!

    why give the suggestion of coming up with your own hypothesis if it generally isn't a good tactic

    @arieatsoranges I agree.. JY should remove that advice from the earlier video.

    @arieatsoranges i use it as a baseline loosely so i can see if anything pops up with it in the ACs and do POE

    The population for a given single coral reef should still include some, who are have not left for breeding (Original), relying on POE, is the best way forward

    this is the assumption I made before seeing the answer choices, lets gooooo!!!

    So in most cases is there always going to be a Answer choice B that nearly says what the main idea is almost* in many of these types of questions?

    @Jaime.vel878 Yeah, some of these explanations are unnecessarily long and add to my confusion

    Constructive criticism, giving all the answer options at once allows the reader the opportunity to decide which one they believe is correct rather than J.Y. going through answer options individually, its more efficient to let the reader guess and then see why their answer was supported or why it wasnt

    @Alexaagg3 Below the lesson title is a "show question" button that allows you to see the whole question before watching the video! Hope this helps

    B is also wrong because even if it was focusing on the correct phenomenon (the genetic differences between the different reef populations), it does nothing to explain or resolve this apparent contradiction, it just restates the fact that there is a difference

    @dreph25 B also only says there is some unspecified amount of genetic difference when the stimulus says, "substantial genetic differences." Something small, but important to note.

    being interrupted with thoughts about shrimp sex while trying to focus on the question is diabolical. it's all diabolical.

    C is obviously the more correct one, but it's funny - law of small numbers would say it's more likely that there would be substantial variation as a matter of randomness (noise) that mellows out with larger numbers. Causal explanation is key

    "Correct Answer Choice (C) Before breeding, shrimp of the species examined migrate back to the coral reef at which they were hatched.

    Now that’s what I’m fucking talking about."
