@mwercins I think you may be interpreting the meaning of certain relative quantifiers too strongly. The stimulus says it is common for a cat to cause a reaction in some but not all people who are allergic to cats, meaning it is common a given cat causes a reaction in at least more than one person, but there is at least one person that they don't cause a reaction in. Since we are given the information that it is the proteins that cause the reactions, it must mean it is common for a cat to have proteins that cause reactions in more than one but also doesn't cause reactions in at least one person (who is allergic to cats). Since that unincluded person is still allergic, there is some cat that has a unique protein that makes them have a reaction, which the other given cat doesn't. This means that at least one cat has a different protein, which is equivalent to the inverted quantity stated in AC C (Not all cats have the same proteins = At least one cat has a different protein than other cats).

I don't understand how A) is not a case of misrepresenting relative vs absolute terms. We have no information about whether any of the candidates are actually even at a minimum qualified, which could make the decision to not hire their siblings impartial, such that they don't hire ANYONE. Is it just better than D)?

Optimal Drilling Progression

Hi!

After improving drilling accuracy for a particular question type, would it be more effective to then work on speed (and thus mastery), or to move on to another question type?

My thoughts are that working on speed will necessarily take much more time, perhaps disproportionately to the diversity of question types and skills a prep test actually requires, but it may lead to better translation from drilling to prep test scores.
