@alinabkh Hi, you click on the question and on the top right it has EXPLANATION.
@asanchez I think you should go back and relearn it. If you continue you will not understand it well enough and that can mess you up later.
So, if I am just skimming through the stimulus to find the conclusion, and have been getting all of the questions right, does that mean it is okay for me to skim through the stimulus or am I careless?
@EmilyMacaluso no it does not. The relationship is different. The if/then is a sufficiency and necessity (a guarantee if you have the sufficient) and the some is of intersection (more of an over lap).
I believe he did #3 wrong on the video because under the answer tab it is different.
@Veronic you are comparing the same thing (any other nations v. any other nations)
for #3 a nation v. any other (this is what is being compared)
what is being measured, is how to maintain a retaliatory force?
and what is maintaining a retaliatory force good for? to maximize deterrence from aggression from other nations
so if you maintain retaliatory force you are the winner, so the nation is the winner
hope this helps
@anzbel Hi, you mention you wrote out every LR approach to every question, sorry if it sounds dumb, how did you do this? And what did you use? How did you frame it?
@Kevin_Lin So, in my opinion, I just felt like it was messy. For example, instead of starting off with what is a phenomenon, maybe mentioning from the beginning that this another form of an argument(how the stimulus will present itself, which is a causal relationship form), where the premise(s) is a phenomenon and conclusion is a hypothesis. And then giving an example and defining phenomenon and hypothesis. After that mentioning how the test makers try and bait us. And how we can beat them to it (alternative explanation, third factor, and reverse causality). I just felt it was messy (sequence), and maybe a more thorough explanation of this concept.
