@158603612qq561 You're overthinking it. The easiest way to eliminate D is that the tendency to laugh was prior to recovery - "whose tendency to laugh was greater to begin with".

Then, there can't be a causal relation between the later to the prior without some confounding variable - some precedent condition influencing both the likelihood to laugh and the likelihood of recovery e.g. strong support networks. I thought this latter thing was what D was saying so chose wrong as well.

I think the problem I ran into with Q14 is the ambiguity in the terms "impact... on creative output". I interpreted this to mean "the impact that having norms has on the levels of creative output", which is discussed in A but not B. I suppose that the alternate interpretation that LSAC expected us to have is something more like "norms are being considered in the process of creative output".

@junhao31351 But the whole point is that the norms create a semblance of IP law, which generates/incentivizes further creative output. Check the last line of A again.

From my experience, burn out is a big factor, as are sleep and eating habits. Personally, these factors account for about an 8 point swing between top testing form and worst.

What I found helped was taking a complete rest day - didn't touch my laptop. Spent the day doing chores and reading. Whenever you're next able to, maybe try that.

Another way to think of "sufficient" is "sufficient to guarantee". Being J.Y. is sufficient to guarantee that you work at 7sage. Working at 7sage is not sufficient to guarantee that you are J.Y. (you could be one of the other staffers).
