UGH! rip my streak. I was between A and B but ultimately picked A because it sounded stronger to me, but my gut told me it was confusing sufficiency for necessity. trust your gut folks!
Hi Confused_potato1! Just wanted to say that your comment earlier in the curriculum was inspiring and I wrote it down.
“Take your time to read slower, focus on understanding the stimulus and its main ideas, and I promise you’ll feel more confident when identifying the correct answers and eliminating the wrong ones more efficiently.”
So to confirm, based on answer C: You don't need all the facts in the stimulus to contribute to the sufficient condition for it to be correct, you just need the sufficient condition to be valid based on any number (some or all) of the facts present (assuming necessary is valid as well)?

you try - intentionally harming a child 😈
LOL
omfgfhhahahahhahaaha oh noooooo
omg thats so funny i didnt notice that
You Try - Intentionally Harming a Child
I'm gonna stop you right there 7Sage
DAMN DERRICK
Before I even start this question, I want to acknowledge the drill title: "You Try - Intentionally Harming a Child"
"You Try - Intentionally Harming a Child"
Actually 7sage, I don't think I will.
Me when I fall for the oldest trick in the book: 🤡🤡🤡
me when I fall for the oldest trick in the book and didnt even realize I fell for the oldest trick, thats worse!!!!
"You Try - Intentionally Harming a Child?" I'd rather not, honestly.
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY
I concur.
HAHAHAHAHAHA
You Try-- Intentionally Harming a Child
...ok if you say so
Sipping wine while studying levels out my high blood pressure caused by these questions.
bro was studying during Superbowl, i respect the grind
I knew "only if" was going to come back to bite me
"You Try -- Intentionally Harming a Child"
Don't encourage me man
I convinced myself A was the right answer by completely ignoring the only and treating it as "IF". Gotta pay attention!
I can’t believe JY is asking us to intentionally harm a child what a silly man
it is truly the worst when you POE out 3 answers, get stuck with 2, and choose the wrong one
Pain
most relatable statement ever
These are giving me a headache
This was a nice question for reviewing and practicing sufficiency-necessity
I literally thought there was three children involved here. Clever word play.

I did the same thing! So frustrating, I was on fire lol
i feel like my brain skipped over B because it was too perfect
literally me rn!
we have been traumatized lol

I just couldn't wrap my head around the wording of the answers. I thought to myself, "eh, I think B is the least shitty." Greatest guess of my life.
literally my exact thought process
Ugh I chose B first then changed my answer to A
3/3 lookin good so far just waiting for the downfall lfg!!!
B literally just rephrases the argument so I did not see how it justifies it
"only if" is a NC indicator
Can someone explain to me why A is wrong like I'm 5 years old? And then why B is the better choice?
I chose A initially but then went with B on the BR.
@JessM Option A has got the sufficient and necessary conditions reversed. The main conclusion of the stimulus is:
If it was intended to injure the second child --> then what was done was wrong
If X --> then Y.
This statement implies that if X happens then Y is guaranteed. Therefore, X is sufficient condition, and Y is the necessary condition.
A is incorrect because it is reversing the sufficient and necessary conditions.
Please pay attention to the word 'Only if'
Here is a simple example:
I will not go out today if it rains.
(Rains-->Not go out today)
I will not go out today only if it rains.
(Not go out today --> Rains)
By adding only if to the above statement, what I'm trying to convey is that for me to not go out today, it must rain.
If the main conclusion in the stimulus said:
"what was done was wrong only if it was intended to injure the second child",
then A would be the right choice.
So to confirm, based on answer C: You don't need all the facts in the stimulus to contribute to the sufficient condition for it to be correct, you just need the sufficient condition to be valid based on any number (some or all) of the facts present (assuming necessary is valid as well)?
also my question!
