I could cross out B and C as irrelevant, but I was stuck between A, D, and E. Whenever I get stuck, I first pay attention to words I think may be critical in both the stimulus and the answer choices. For example, I made sure the answer choices contained the word "expect" and not some other word the LSAT writers tried to supplement in (e.g., "know"). Ultimately, I chose E because A and D both say "usually." Based on the wording of the stimulus, we can't infer what they "usually" do. SA questions are looking for a very powerful answer choice that doesn't leave any gaps in the argument. Saying what someone "usually" does isn't powerful enough! What if the person doesn't behave as they usually do? This is a very helpful trick for me, and I hope it can help someone else, too!

I like it! I find that I am often under-confident in my answers, and recognizing this will allow me to get faster under timed conditions
