on the LSAT do we also have access to the search bar??? because that really helps in many situations of getting specific context throughout the passages.
For those of us that that made the mistake of choosing B, would you also consider that as confusing sufficiency for necessity? As an the critics thought that his book had too many autobiographical elements for a novel, so The Wanderers → /should be an autobiography. However, answer choice B is saying The Wanderers → should be an autobiography.
Dang. Second guessed myself on both the answering and BR of this. I wanted to pick A so badly. However, I thought the critics were suggesting that if it is framed as an autobiography and has real-world characters, it should then be presented as an autobiography.
I totally neglected the fact that it still had fictional relationships and should not be, according to the critics, using real-world characters under fictional circumstances. Ugh. My mind is broken for today. I read the first line Kevin points out and everything.
I did too. Missing a level two question is such a blow to the ego. Their whole criticism of M seemed to be rooted in categorization, so B seemed like the best fit
I dont understand the point of these question types. Sure you can have an idea of the right answer, but to make you go back to the passage and confirm the answer seems like an unfair way to waste our time
I picked B by referring to the first paragraph where the critics are mentioned in line 10. How do we know what paragraph to focus on from a question like this where critics are all over? #help
I don’t think there was a way to know which paragraph to focus on going into the question, unfortunately. It comes down to seeing if the paragraph you’re looking at supports the answer choice, and if that answer choice responds to the question.
Here is why I thought B was incorrect: the first paragraph notes that critics thought the Wanderer was presented too autobiographical. It’s a small nuance, but that isn’t the same as critics thinking that the book should have been an autobiography. The first paragraph also doesn’t give a specific reason for dismissing the Wanderer yet; it is more so describing that critics take issue with categorizing Mphahlele’s work, with the Wanderer being an example of one of Mphahlele’s works that is difficult to categorize.

@KUROUSHFAIZRAFATIAN yes but people have reported that it can be slow or laggy

its not a sufficient/necessity confusion, its just that the answer would be correct if it said "shouldnt" be presented as an autiobiography
