This question highlights how important writing a low-res summary is! I had a hard time keeping track of different perspectives that I am trying to make it a habit to create my own low-res summaries while reading the passage for the first time. During the RC questions, as they will inevitably ask about different perspectives that was introduced as well as the author, it's super helpful to jot down each pov that's introduced!
Had D then switched to A last second. Completely didn't even realize that I chose A based off the author's opinion and not the many lawyers. This was hard to realize as the two perspectives are generally in agreement, with only a slight difference.
Note to self: Remember even perspectives that are in agreement can differ in the "why they believe" aspect.
need to learn to be PATIENT PATIENT PATIENT. so much of RC is just about understanding what the question is asking and what the answer choices are saying. EVERY WORD MATTERS. also a little motivation for everyone who also chose A because they didn't read the rest of the choices carefully: stupid mistakes are the best kinds of mistakes. once you learn to not make the same kind of mistake again, you will gradually improve. be kind to yourself and you got this everyone!
DO NOT.... I REPEAT>>> DO NOT convince yourself that a question is right and half butt read the following answers just to say you "read the rest of the answers" but immediately delete it with no thought on what it even says just because you think you found the answer
I don't understand how A is any "wronger" or D is any "righter." Just like D is implied in the opening paragraph, how is A not implied in the last one. Is it just the"lawyers" part?
Kevin, as I'm studying, I'm trying to look for patterns to help me on test day. Like in this question, I've noticed that the majority (three out of the five) answer choices start with "the decision should...". If there are repeat instances in which an answer choice starts off, is it clever to hone in on the majority aka (C), (D), and (E) here?
Or, is this recognized pattern unfounded, meaning that I should not automatically rule out any answer choices.

If more people chose A than chose D... doesn't that empirically suggest that A is more strongly implied?
This is the first time I've seen a question where more people got it wrong than right. I got it right but I almost went with A. This question is nuts.
☹️
this question is just insane, people literally got A more than they got D. like HUUHHH
i hate yo
I was on a roll until now... thanks for always keeping me humble, 7Sage.
can't even a get a "now this is a hard question" to make me feel better smh

damn i rly need to stop over thinking I picked D and then changed to A in Br
Nah this question got me rethinking my life decisions, this whole section is KILLING ME Y’ALL
I thought D meant that if the lawyer steals thunder, then the opps will try to produce an advantage based on the mention of negative information.
Now this one pmo

When the curve goes all the way to 180 you know the question is evil
