@danjpeach96 I've been scrambling to go from zero to LSAT ready in 2 months. At least shooting for next year you have plenty of time to work up to your best LSAT score.

I am 36 years old and also work in software development. I'm taking the LSAT this week and planning to start school part time in August while I continue working full time. I have 4 kids. It's gonna be hard, but we've decided to make the sacrifices necessary to make it happen.

I was between the correct answer and my chosen answer, but I didn't feel like either answer was correct. To me, the flaw was not in confusing a necessary condition with sufficient one, but with confusing necessary with the ONLY sufficient one. I chose B because it seemed to imply that nuance slightly better to me (although it did make the leap of nervous system existing -> nervous system sending messages).

I'm having trouble seeing why B is necessarily the best answer. Both A and E seem to be at least equally correct if not better answers.

A. This gives the chimp a reason for threat gestures beyond simple anger. When a chimp is in a situation where preserving social status is the highest goal, he is more likely to gesture.

E. If the same chimp usually has the same response then the difference could be explained simply by individual temperaments of the chimps.

B. Even if gesturing helps vent aggressive feelings, it doesn't explain why the chimp chose to gesture before attacking in the first place.

I chose B cause I read "cannot be protected" as "cannot be protected by law". Tricky!

I saw the following connection between B and the stimulus.

  • B: if even one document is damaged/lost -> whole of historical record will be damaged

  • Stimulus: If one building (the train station) is preserved -> it's an impediment to new development (as a whole)

How is this less correct than C?
