I was able to narrow it down between A and E and chose E because of the rule being if a description is a deliberate attempt to mislead.... I chose E over A solely because he is literally attempting to mislead bidders by describing a vase as something else to increase the bidding/value.
I crossed out E because I saw the first part "without consulting anyone with expertise in authenticating vases" as outside info that the rule is silent on since the rule doesn't say anything about that. I'm confused how to know when rules are silent on certain facts
Almost picked A until I read E. A is a trickster. It is stating a fact that could make Healey seem like he is trying to deliberately mislead the buyers. But we have to make that assumption that he is using A as evidence for why he might be. Obviously, E includes a similar fact as A and includes the "why" behind his actions (which is what A was missing).
I like to use the trick "so what?". Anytime I am confused, I read the answer choice and ask myself "So what". If I can't explain why or if I find myself assuming a lot of information from a simple fact/rule, then it's not the answer.

went through abcd thinking I was tweaking
Withe PSAa questions, correct answer will use info from Application and apply the Principle/Rule correctly.
Got this one wrong because I had A chosen and didn't read the last part of E thats unforunate
I am starting to feel like I'm successfully retraining my intuition on LR problems. I got the problem correct in under a minute!
I don't understand what the question stem is asking exactly

I was stuck between A and E and chose A ahhh we're learning here
I was hunting for "bidders' thankfully I found 'auction' at least
So its not necessarily that A is not correct, its more so the fact that E is a much stronger answer choice?
Crap I got my answer right and changed it to B in BR ugh!
Didn't pick E because it had mentioned the consulting part, it just didn't feel important to the application... Tricked me -_-
Rule: Description is deliberately misleading → Guilty
E establishes that Healy intentionally provided a misleading description to increase profit, so they're guilty
What does the auction house maintaining its posture of willful ignorance have to do with the rule? ( In answer E)
Still confused about why A is wrong #help
From my viewpoint, this subset is much easier than the previous ones.

Don't see how E adds anything new. That conclusion was already found in the Principle applied to the Application, so E is not needed...
i forgot to scroll to read E so it took me longer to understand why there was no right answer lol

feel like this is easier than the find the rule since i can kinda assume the answer choice more
let me cook - this one went crazy :)
#feedback Latter is misspelled as "ladder"
