Honestly, I knew deep down in my heart that E was gonna be the right answer, but I so badly wanted to pick D. So I did it. No regrets, just chillin. LSAC can have this one

My thought process:

A. we are merely given a statistic, nothing is being established. There's no additional comment about what this statistic means for the argument.

B. the stats are not in favor of increasing the number of officers, on the contrary, it's giving us a reason to doubt that idea.

C. the stats do not prove anything, the argument just cited some stats and doesn't draw any conclusive statements from those stats. It gives us a stat, and leaves us to draw meanings from it.

D. We can't say no relation because in at least one of those many instances, there has got to be at least one time that shows a need for increased police officers. It says they diverged widely, so correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought hey there should at least be one case where there was a relationship between number of officers and crime rate.

E. suggests is a great word to use here, and yes we can reasonably think that the stats suggest that the number of officers is not the only influence.

Overall suggestion: look at the first word of the answer choices and ask yourself, are the stats proving something? are they establishing a fact?

I had no clue what the stimulus was trying to imply. Damn.

I think the abstractness of the answer choices are what's tripping me up. I literally predicted the flaw right after reading the stimulus, but still chose A over C because C just didn't click for some reason

Man I had absolutely no clue what prudent or imprudent meant, just thought, well we need the resentment idea to probably tie to imprudent cuz they're both negative meanings (imprudent sounded like something negative which is the only reason why I could get E)

i have a different issue where after drilling, I click the review button and the page never loads. It's acting like it's loading, but never actually loads so I have to refresh the page every single time I try to review my drills. Have a 2024 MacBook Air, and OS Tahoe 26.2

Here's my two cents as to why D is actually right and not that crazy of an answer, just requires close reading. Keep in mind I chose A initially.

In the policy-capturing approach, it is said that the researchers read "each opinion" and "identify variables discussed in the opinion" whereas in the latter approach, it is said that scholars have adopted a technique where they "read complete transcripts" of the cases.

Only judges can give opinions in a court case, which is the info the former approach uses, however court transcripts include quite literally every single thing said during the span of the case which can include witness testimony, lawyer's statements, jury walking in/walking out, announcement of recess, etc.

So, the difference between these approaches is that the latter approach (which is the "slightly different approach" as the passage calls it) uses transcripts which would include "assessment of aspects that are not specifically mentioned in a judge's opinion", so aspects like the lawyer's defense or the witness' testimony, and other things because only the transcript can have all of these aspects, not the judge's opinion. The judge can ignore certain statements said in court because it is irrelevant and therefore not include it in his opinion, but the transcript still has everything written down.

Idk how someone can read that passage about the drilling fluids/deep well drilling timed, and get a good score. I did it untimed and got a 5/7, i hate it here.

If I can overcome the mental fog that scientific stuff immediately creates in my head, then I will be able to comprehend the stimulus and not make stupid mistakes like picking E over A :(

@blueberry Hi!! are you taking the exam in April as well?

I'm taking the test in April and have finished the entire curriculum now, but will go over foundations again because I need a refresher before I start drilling seriously. I kinda wanted to have someone (can be multiple people) so we could keep each other accountable and make sure we're both studying. I'm more of a self learner so it wouldn't be like we teach other stuff but I would be glad to help if any questions arise. (My diagnostic was a 146 so idk where I'm at now, but my overall goal is mid 160s by April and hopefully high 160s or low 170s by June/August)
