if opbjectivity is an "ideal" wouldn't that imply that few historians could achieve it? Or would rejecting answer A be an example of being aggressive in selecting answer choices?
JY or Kevin if you don’t mind i’d love to know when I should be aggressive as JY was in question 1, opposed to leaving 2 answer choices like this. I felt like the other answer choice in the first question for passage A was something that could definitely be left as a potential answer.
@Endritkasumaj He's being more or less the same for all of these questions in terms of aggressiveness. As @Patni stated, both AC B and C are present in A, that's why he didn't eliminate them.
how can passage A indicate that objectivity is essential for historians when the passage itself makes explicit reference to a type of historian (relativists) for whom objectivity is NOT essential? The passage doesn't really discuss all historians, it discusses Objective Historians
There's a LawHub feature (also present in the 7Sage tester) that allows you X out an answer. This is usually what people use to mark that they've already eliminate an answer.

@Endritkasumaj In the first question of Passage A, only (B) can be found in the text.
(A) not mentioned
(C) not discussed
(D) author makes no point of this
(E) not discussed
Whereas, in this question, two of the answer choices (in my mind) are explicitly stated, meaning we have zero idea until we read Passage B.

It uses objective historians as a medium and the benchmark for what all historians ought to be in its very prescriptive argument.
Anyway, this question is asking about the attitude towards objectivity itself, not a subsection of historians that value objectivity first.
What is the most efficient way of tracking which answers you've eliminated while taking the LSAT?
LOL. How imperceptive of me. You have greatly improved my experience, good sir!
