Yeah.. I don't feel like this is a great question. I feel like there are too many things you could pick on E for.
I latched on to the "significant numbers" part. What does that even mean? How could that possibly be necessary with the information we are given? Am I thinking about this the wrong way?
I have gotten nearly every level 5 NA question correct and nearly every level 4 NA question incorrect. Is there some huge difference between these two levels? Anyone else feel like level 5 is easier than level 4?
I eliminated answer E because I thought that it sidestepped the argument.
My mistake was thinking that "There is already a shortage of qualified teachers in the region" was a contextual statement so I kind of mentally blocked it off.
My 2nd mistake was once I had narrowed it down to AC D and E and was unsure, I didn't negate them both out. I negated D and glossed over "any student" and "overall student". Had I negated both ACs, it would've raised the red flag that I was missing something since negating both would work.
Takeaways:
Need to consciously analyze argument structure for NA questions
When in doubt, (time permitting) analyze through negation
Persuading them to relocate doesn't mean you'll be able to hire them, let alone they don't even have to be in the education industry after they move.
Training more teachers is also another way of increasing the number of qualified teachers in that region. If there is another way to achieve the increase in the amount of qualified teachers, then E will not be a necessary assumption.

so over this section that I didn't even have the energy to crash out.
I don't remember there ever being a prescriptive/descriptive lesson. Why has this become such a huge part of things and it appeared out of nowhere?
correct answer almost resembles an out of scope answer choice ughughugh but it makes sense if we look at the Educator's conclusion
i don't understand how this is the right answer. How does this support the fact that reducing class size would not improve achievement? super confused

This section absolutely and positively fried me. I genuinely am still lost and feel hopeless. FAAAAH
I guess its not peanut butter jelly time....
I'm confused, should I use the negation technique or not, because it works every time, but JY says not to use it because it takes too long...
My takeaway from this module: This answer is really attractive, but it's wrong.
Cry emoji
hate this omfg
talked myself out of E i'm sooo mad
i immediately eliminated E bc i thought it was silly... im cooked
i get how e is right but i dont get how d is wrong. AC d strengthens the argument, but how is it not necessary?
#help How is 'underqualified' a distraction in the stimulus when it is a component of answer choice E?

didn't even consider E lol
#Help Doesn't E fall into the recurring fault of introducing a different explanation for the conclusion?
took me 10 mins but got it right!!! lol
Girl I answered D so fast and confidently. Jaw dropped it was E. UGH
#help
To me E still has these problems:
