Q4, answer C states "....although the evidence given is consistent with the first thing's having caused the second" I didn't choose this answer because I don't believe there is evidence that having more money caused more to own laptops. I agree that the flaw is causation vs correlation but the language in C states there is causation which to me is innacurate.
@MailJabrayilov your scores are still super impressive... I have a June test coming up but I'm not anywhere near your score, admittedly though, I'm not trying to get into the same schools as you. Good Luck to you, I'm sure you'll do great and get accepted to the RIGHT school!
I first chose B and on BR chose D. It was a toss up for me. The confusing part of the stimulus for me is that I took there to be a distinction of "free" poetry reading and poetry reading. I looked at it as on almost every wednesday there is free poetry reading, but there could be paid poetry reading on every Thursday. It seems that the explanation of why B is incorrect doesn't make a distinction between "free poetry reading" and "poetry reading". B is saying "Most Free Poetry Reading given at Zacks are scheduled for Wednesday" which I see corroborated with the first sentence in the stimulus.......
@Kevin_Lin Thanks for that clarification, I see where my mistake was. I used previous knowledge and assumption that was not laid out in the argument.
In Q#7 if you take C to be true then wouldn't that prove and bridge the gap that pluto is not a true planet? Or am I inferring previous understandings of planets vs. moons? Maybe I'm making too many assumptions here like, people thought its a planet because it revolves around the sun, and argument is that it was initially revolved around Neptune, hence if it didn't break that graviational pull from Neptune it would still orbit around it and not the sun?
One thing I noticed in this argument is that Marcia's argument "implies" that nutritional sufficiency and vegetarianism involves the same people. said another way, Marcia is saying that people that eat at least one vegetarian diet can be nutritionally sufficient. Whereas Theodora's argument is that vegetarianism could create nutritional deficiencies in people who are not necessarily vegetarians...meaning one vegetarian person will cause nutritional deficiency to another person (by way of poverty creation) not sure if this is at all relevant, but I found it interesting nonetheless.
@chloebarnett144 IDK....based on your logic, A should answer why the proposal shouldn't pass or why voters shouldnt determine the vote....but B doesn't explain the WHY either. B just says proposal shouldnt be decided by voters, it doesnt say WHY.
@hannahhuynh that makes so much sense. However, to play devils advocate here. The premise is saying any council member should abstain or vote against, thereby implying that they dont want the propsal to be passed. "A" is saying that if all members abstain, then voters will pass in favor, which is exactly what premise doesn't want......I'm confused why abstaining and voting against doesn't imply that you dont want voters to vote because they will vote in favor....
This whole premise and answer choices, including the correct answer choice, are really weak....Not a fan of this question or explanation
I still dont get how C would help resolve the discrepancy. Even if we're talking about profit margins, the stimulus says nothing that the employees are somehow differentiated between "PC" employees or "High-Tech" employees. So the store employee is available regardless and its cost would be spread across all products sold.
