When we first saw this question in the split method after reading only A, I was able to see and make the distinction between evolutionary psychology and theory in the answers since A didn't touch on the "theory" but solely on evolutionary psychology, but after reading B I completely forgot everything... I'm definitely pro split method on these passages.
" When you feel like two answers are the same, that has to be a red flag that you are're not reading at least one of the answers correctly " yes, that is what usually happens to me.
Another way of looking at incorrect answer D is that passage A showed no real skepticism towards Evolutionary Theory so how can they be more or less skeptical if they use it as the basis of there argument about evolutionary psych.
REEEE i chose D, but i think i know where i went wrong. To say the author in Passage B was more skeptical of evolutionary theory in general would be wrong. The author of passage b wasn't questioning so much evolutionary theory alone, they were questioning evolutionary theory in the context of altruism. So D would be wrong. heheh i swear im not dumbbbbb
@MissProsecutor I think it's more that they were questioning evolutionary psychology (a subject partaining to human psychology) vs questioning evolutionary theory in general (a subject pertaining to the evolution of all life on earth)

must. read. every. word. of. the. answer. you. choose.
@JacquelineMoon I struggle with this when it comes to actually doing a timed section..
When two answers feel like the same, that is a red flag to re-read the answers for missed details.

Gotta make sure to read very carefully, very obvious when the word theory was pointed out.
can someone explain why E is not correct? I am having a hard time digesting it?
@legallyhaya I believe because of the word "motives"
@legallyhaya It because the authors are not critical of the motives of evolutionary psychologists.
