i dont know how i did this but I misread large animals as endangered

damn I chose B originally and then second guessed myself on E. On BR, I realized it's because I didn't read the entire answer choice ("she thinks")

such a subtle trap answer

@BillyTheKidd02 The last paragraph really does help tie things together. The author admits the approach is "sound" but is contingent on donors. It's probably the most important paragraph in finding the author's voice since it's the only paragraph the author stands between this debate of approaches.

Once you get the author's opinion/voice, you can look through the passage (or your low-res summaries) with the lens of what the author has to say. For example, now that the author has established their opinion between this debate, the author seems to agree with the long-term approach while also adding more support with donors in the long-term approach.

@Makaveli678 I thought I was crazy for thinking that the author SUPPORTED the studies (so many word choices imply that) but then I DIDNT REALIZE IT WAS MORE ACADEMIC INTEREST TO THE LEGAL PROFESSION LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

oh my god vancouver island mentioned what the hell is a nanaimo bar🗣️🗣️🗣️

I had to reread the last sentence to solidify my answer. I thought the last sentence said number of manuscripts was NOT approved was the same instead of approved LOL

For some reason, I didn't think the car being damaged wasn't considered property damage, when it's quite LITERALLY considered property so I thought B wasn't really a good answer until I read on BR

I love these answer choices so much because it just feels so FUNNY LOL

I could already identify from the pre-phrase that it was a sampling bias from 10 tests so I chose C

B and E are literally Ad Hominem errors. Lowkey feels like the author for this question HATED expert witnesses LOL.

I chose A thinking that there's nothing to support that faculty salaries affect tuition since it doesn't affect students.

Yet I was stuck on D (even though I was certain it HAD to be A). D required me to sit through and understand how would this resolve the problem. Importance on the "many" of its students, which can refer to some students, played into the role of renewing scholarships for those who maintain high grade averages. This led to an assumption to be made that there will be some students who do not maintain high grade averages, leading to a possible reason why they cannot afford it.

Though I chose E, I somehow didn't notice the statement of "entity distinct from us and subject to our control."

I grabbed the support from the second last sentence in that paragraph that recognizes primates as active participants to display how Haraway challenges the traditional approach.

@RinHan

the way i was so stuck on what the jump was made but I also thought that the answer choice addresses any alternative explanations by saying that the sales will not increase even if the item were on sale/rebate.

Also love my goat chiikawa

Seeing this passage reinvigorated my passion for law because this is so COOL

@mvsouthbay periodt

Never Let Me Go vibes here

Economics are such a weak point when I tackle LSAT questions...

wait that would be cool sure

I know B is unsupported but I really wanted to choose it based on personal LSAT bias LOL

but realistically, same clues as the detective yet following a different path. If the detective solves the mystery with the same clues given, then the current clues should be enough to solve the mystery.

this is what I feel ratemyprof is like

@Arkavian

Not a tutor but my explanation as to why C over E is resulting in the claim of what caused the deformities?

If we choose E, that could properly evaluate the claim by determining whether there other pollutants that could have involved the deformities. For that reason it's wrong in this EXCEPT question.

FOR C, this statement has nothing to do with the chemicals producing the deformities. This question only asks if the those with the deformities caused any problems. For all we could know, the deformed fish could have caused that problem regardless of whether the chemicals were or were not involved. It doesn't solve the issue of what caused the deformities.

I was just looking through the answer choices and answer choice E gave me a good laugh LOL

I was doing blind review and it just occurred to me how obvious it was.

It's strongly supported that the poison didn't work because the pike are still a problem LMAO

prephrase was literally just because there's more exposure of crime doesn't mean there's more crime and A fit that bill pretty nicely

this was a stimulus where I chose a different answer compared to my pre-phrase.

My pre-phrase was: The norm of warmer weather is going to allow for something to impede the yield.

C was along the lines of that with that something being insect pests to impede but I kept getting the concepts of recent years and the norms confused in my head.

I chose E at the time even though I felt odd about that particular answer since it didn't address how it would impede the growth. I think I need to trust in my gut more often and just accept that if it's wrong for the reason I think it's wrong, then I should cross it off.

i made the mistake of long distance could also mean driving for long distances (per time) compared to driving a longer total.

The reasoning itself is problematic because of the comparison to a smaller representation aaaa

I REALLY wanted A to be right so bad because it would be so funny to have an answer choice be "OBJECTION HEARSAY" but I know it's C because the author uses "retired from company" to be equal to "retirement in general"
