For (B), I thought offering additional "observations" the prof. didn't consider meant things outside of (1) individualism and (2) tradition. I feel like "observations" should be traded out for "aspects".

But regardless, the prof. did not consider what the critic said. No matter how closely related.

Correct with 38 seconds to spare, I'm just gonna bask in this victory before getting destroyed soon.

It's the worst when there's choices like (C), I feel like I'm burning the clock. Good thing I took the time though, cos it was the right answer!

Keep trying, do not set yourself back a whole year just because it’s hard right now! Only make that postponing decision (which is perfectly fine to do) after you take the August LSAT and get your score.

Also, your LSAT is important but it’s not everything. You can score below the past median but have an amazing GPA and application.

My brain thought, "there's something sketchy about this grouping." Immediately chose (C) with 36 seconds to spare yayyy

After reading the stimulus, you're on the hunt for an AC regarding distribution of organic factors (OF) across the globe.

(A) discussion doesn't do anything to OF distribution.

(B) This is super supportive of the conclusion. It basically gives an example of a type of OF that leads to the conclusion.

(D) Attacking the development of mental illness is off topic.

(E) Again, attacking the development of mental illness is off topic. Besides, the stimulus doesn't differentiate internal vs external issues in mental illness.

(C) Correct because it goes specific to general, not general to specific. It starts with variation in specific cultures, leading to the general mental illness crisis. Rather than starting with the general mental illness crisis being distributed to the specific cultures.

This is so sad, poor little owls. Perpetually going to the right...

Omg 7Sage, you keep making me change my answers on ones I got right, I don't know how much of this I can do

I got it right but blind review said I needed to change my answer ;(

Anyways, E is correct because the conclusion hinges upon "child development" and recommendations for parenting. (A) brings in a development factor but "unaffected" makes it useless. (B) repeats the stimulus. (C) is probably right outside of this LSAT world, but we're only discussing infants. (D) brings in a development factor, but doesn't offer anything profound.

(E) Addresses infant development and how stimulation inherently affects that. It also argues in favor of more stimulation which is the basis of the stimulus' conclusion.

Aw man, I skipped these foundational lessons for the sake of time and I'm glad I'm reviewing them now. I would get questions wrong on a factual basis, and was really confused why the test wanted me to believe things that made no factual sense. Thank you, 7Sage!

Better yet, when you assume, you make an ass out of “u” and “me”

@ShantiJean-Louis Same here, it made me review Question 5 so i switched the answer even though I had got it correct in the first place.

@delaneybell2 I'm gonna jump on this chain, haha. I'm 19 years old, taking the LSAT in June (maybe April, too?) and attending law school in 2027. I'd love to have some study partners!
