I read each answer and looked for a an argument with "most" and "more" and then circled it and moved on. I realize this isn't a fully reliable method, but my brain was not allowing me to read and comprehend these answers for some reason.
Same, for me I think it's because I'm currently a uni student who has difficult finding parking spots during the school year, and I had a mom who gave out a lot more snacks to us when we had friends over lol.
Stimulus: The argument assumes that just because there's more citations given out during the school year than when school is not in session, then they must give out most citations to students. But who is to say that the students are the ones getting them? What if it's the professors? Argument assumes that one subset is responsible for the entire set of people present for the school year.
A - Cross out. We never talk about proportions.
B - Cross out. We don't compare two different populations / types of things. Stimulus compares the presence vs. absence of students.
C - Cross out. No set vs. superset.
D - Cross out. We don't have multiple options to pick from in the stimulus. Also, we aren't comparing multiple things vs. multiple things.
E - Yeah. This assumes that all of the snacks parents give out are to kids. But what if it's been given to other parents?
I really don't know what has happened to me here. The first few were incredibly easy and straightforward to me but I was so lost and confused on the last 2.
Anyone else ever feel like 7sage has got to be lying about these question difficulties? I actually thought this question was way easier than the previous. By a long shot actually lol.
Lol so I'm guessing that maybe made (A) easier to cross and (E) easier to select? Whenever I'm taking my toddler out and about we usually bring our own snacks lol.
I am finding that i understand these intuitively in most cases and that when i try to go really deep i end up losing the plot. It is kind of counterintuitive but they way it seems is that i can subliminally understand the relationships and then find the matching answer without fully mapping it in my head.
I don't know if that makes sense to anyone but me, but I'm curious if anyone else is having a similar experience.
@natcat same. JY thinks of the right answer/wrong answers in certain ways that he prefers. Unless specifically mentioned in the future/other similar questions are right with that difference, I am going to assume we are okay in using that as a reason to eliminate an AC

There goes my answer streak :/
JY: This will probably be the hardest para questions in this set
My confidence:
@PowerUp_Tutoring Literally
As someone who does not drive, I had no idea that parking citations could be issued by anyone other than the police.
i find the difficulty so inconsistent on these, like this felt easier than some of the previous questions...
@VibrantXerographicAgency Agree. I felt like this should've been a 1 or 2 instead of 5.
@VibrantXerographicAgency retweet, the last one was harder even tho it was rated a 1 LMAO
no one is doing worse than me rn it's not even funny...
don't let it beat you up! parallel is usually only 1-2 questions per section :)) you got this!
answering this question felt very similar to that feeling you have right after you see you have a parking citation
i ate
I ate this one upppp
I read each answer and looked for a an argument with "most" and "more" and then circled it and moved on. I realize this isn't a fully reliable method, but my brain was not allowing me to read and comprehend these answers for some reason.
I misunderstood the logic and thought the correct answer must have something than shows the "than" relationship and select D
I made this same mistake lol
SAME
I think my confidence in this section went from a 8 to a 3 with these last two questions.
The sudden shift for me was so jarring, lord...
how..... on earth would you do this question in a minute and 26 seconds in real life
been shitting the bed lately on these questions, and get this question immediately correct, and then see it was max difficulty, wtf

That answer on A helps alot
Cannot believe I haven’t missed a single one yet, I have to be getting punk’d right now

Yes this felt so intuitive for me. Possibly because I am a parent who buys a lot of snacks for my children.
Lol so I'm guessing that maybe made (A) easier to cross and (E) easier to select? Whenever I'm taking my toddler out and about we usually bring our own snacks lol.
So. Many. Snacks!

You are not alone. I don't map any of these and have managed to get most of the questions in this set correct (even the 4-star and 5-stars)
I just frew up again
WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE I AM!!
I eliminated A on the basis that it was not a comparative claim.

We may actually be back
Wow, it really is just count "most/more/all" in the stimuli and make sure the answer has the same number
stimulus has most and more. I just looked for both of those in the answers and wallah
@mosheelish94 wallahi thats the way brother
I NEED TO STOP SECOND GUESSING MYSELF. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
