I'll add my interpretation here in case it may help someone else...CE can be caused by decreased oxygen at elevation, but we are not told that this is the only instance CE can occur. CE has similar symptoms to MS. If the person who experienced CE was not at an elevation, I believe it is not "especially dangerous" because MS could be ruled out and the chances of being misdiagnosed are less. If CE occured at an elevation, it could be improperly diagnosed as MS due to the similar symptomology. This would be "especially dangerous" if the treatment of the two differ. (answer A). I still had slight issue with Answer A because I wondered, what if the treatment was the same, but the URGENCY/timing of that treatment was different? But in my confident elimination of all other answers, I felt comfortable in making the assumption that "the treatment" encompassed not only WHAT they do to treat, but also the timing of what they do.
I also started to get sick yesterday. Unfortunately, when I'm not feeling my best, I think it does affect my score. I am planning to write Saturday anyway and write an addendum later, if needed. This has definitely opened my eyes to how the unexpected can come up and, so, I don't want to chance that I could feel even worse in December, or have to deal with other life surprises, and wish I had just pushed through for the September test. I've been having lots of water and soothing throat teas. Also loading up on garlic and oil of oregano and vitamin C. Warm bath (while listening to lsat question explanations or webinars). And I'm also making sure I rest when needed. Even if it means a nap in the afternoon and trying not to feel guilty about cutting into study time for that, because the energy that I hope to get back will be well worth it. Good luck to you and I'll be wishing for the best of health for all of us Saturday test takers!
I am still struggling with D here...as JY says, the twins would likely be able to tell each other apart, so they know they are watching a video of someone else. This example shows that watching a video of someone else can cause over reporting to happen. How can we make the leap that over reporting will happen to a greater degree (or even at all!) if the video is of oneself rather than someone else? If both groups over-reported, then the 1 hour difference between the two could still be significant because something else might account for it.
Even to the other extreme, maybe over reporting happens only when watching videos of someone else (since that is the ONLY example in answer choice D). If THAT is the case, then if the group that watched the video of other people over reported their own exercise, AND the group that watched themselves STILL reported an hour more. This shows even greater motivation difference than we initially thought!
And finally, in the stimulus we are comparing people that watched videos of themselves to videos of other people, but it did not state that the other people were necessarily dissimilar to themselves.
I had chosen C, but see how that doesn't cut it either.
In my opinion, this would have been a good candidate for answer : (F) None of the above.

What are the analytics based on? Is it LSAC info?
All I can tell you is that they didn't consult with me for this opinion! Lol Hardest RC (for me) that I've tried. If that was "easier" I tremble to think of what will come going forward.
I don't know what it is about this RC question set, but even my second time around trying it out (I wrote in June) it is STILL my worst RC result of any practice test. I was so close to attaining my goal score too. RC re-match on Saturday. Good luck everyone!
Also underperformed my PTs. (Basically all except the diagnostic.) RC was totally my downfall. Proud of my performance otherwise, but my overall score means I need to keep at it for another try. As the song goes: 'See you...in September...'
I never knew I could have such a strong physical reaction to icons changing colour. I almost cried when I saw the grey! Still shaky. OMG! Good luck friends!
I'm interested!
