the "rely exclusively on scientifically valid information." is why i didn't choose b .. i literally was like thats so strong, that doesn't have to be true .. there are other valid forms of info that would do them well. Can someone explain ?
damn grammar is king till the day i die ig
honestly I just keep pushing through bc I'm sure this will all click someday soon rip
I was between B & E bc i thought if only those who believed they were susceptible to skin cancer used sunscreen then there was a high population of ppl who probably needed to wear sunscreen but didn't.. hence the increased amount of ppl w skin cancer. However, i didn't have to jump through as many hoops for B.
I know "Consequently" is a strong conclusion indicator but for question 5 i flipped the premise and conclusion bc it made more sense to me that customers being able to buy shirts at less than the store's cost would result in neither making profit or breaking even ..
this happened to me too! I just assumed I was getting better LMAO but I'm glad someone asked :)
I started w loophole but I work full time and have other commitments, so it took me a while to get through. I liked it and thought it was clear and accessible but I LOVE 7s, I find it far more intuitive and comprehensive than Loophole. However, there is a chance that this is the result of some scheduling changes and the fact that I am studying at/with an intensity and frequency conducive to my learning. I think it'll ultimately depend on the type of learner you are. I am pretty disciplined and don't necessarily need an interactive interface to engage with BUT the cc is well developed and I have no complaints so far (I'm only 80% done foundations btw)
I will probably echo most of what has already been said but will include some different strategies and examples. I think how you review is probably key here tbh. Do you know what you don’t know? ex. can you articulate why you chose the answer you did and why it may or may not be correct? I’ve been trying two methods that are really helping me in my practice phase:
Go through each answer choice and write out why it’s incorrect, then choose the one you can’t come up with a convincing argument against.
Compare the question to others — for example, what wording changed your approach? It could be the structure (e.g., “all” before “most,” or vice versa), the strength of the language, and so on.
Everyone talks about keeping a wrong answer journal, but I think how you go about it really matters. I’ve done this for other standardized tests in an Excel sheet, but I’ve found more value in keeping a small notebook that actually feels like a journal. I’ll literally write something like:
“OH NO, THEY CAUGHT ME. I thought _____ implied _____, and I shouldn’t have made that assumption because I was using outside knowledge. NOTE TO SELF: stop using outside knowledge — no one cares about what you think/know.”
Now I rely solely on the stimulus and ask more questions while reading instead of letting my bias take over. It’s a silly example, but I think not rushing the review part is crucial for understanding not just what you’re getting wrong, but why.
Are you translating the logic on paper or just in your head, and does that make a difference? Are you translating correctly but still getting the wrong answer? Then maybe the problem lies in the application of translation. What kinds of answers are you choosing?
I think a reflective approach can be really beneficial :)
You got this !! Goooodd Luck !!
omg, never in a million years could I have guessed that SOME was inclusive of ALL. Lots of unlearning to do ig.
AWWW s/o to Brad, I didn't even know i needed that
okay this but be a silly question but it is what it is. If we are to take the contrapositive of
/purpose --> (resident --> prohibit)
is it
/ (resident-->prohibit) --> purpose, where the negation applies to both resident and prohibit
OR is it
(/prohibit --> resident) --> purpose
OR is it
/(/prohibit -->resident) --> purpose
lmao idk why I struggle w 2 star questions but will do okay on 4 or 5 stars :(((((
