None of the other answer choices made sense to me. E was the only one that sounded clear and made sense but what makes me uneasy about that is I want to be clear and know why I did not chose the other answer choices. I think it is important to be able to explain and identify what was wrong with the other answer choices so I know what to lookout for. I don't feel like I've been taught that yet.

@Tmitch243 And to clarify, I understand the instructor uses made up stimulus samples varying from easy to difficult, like the Jedi stimulus or NYC pet stimulus, to show us different lessons and foundations and such. However, we are just shown a made up sample stimulus, not the type of question that would apply to the stimulus or answer choices. What kind of question would apply to the made up stimuli prompts that the instructor gives us? How do we breakdown that question to know what it is asking of us? What would the answers choices look like for a question with that kind of stimulus? How do we weed out trap answers for that kind of question? This is what I mean.

What I don't like is that we get all of this foundational information but never practice looking at a question and breaking it down before having to answer it.

It feels like we have to absorb all this information without seeing how it applies to the questions. It would be helpful if as we are going through the different foundational lessons, we can view a question type that applies to the lesson before the sample. For example, when we learned about main conclusion and premise, in one of the lessons it could show a sample question that we would get that applies to what we are learning. It can just be used as an example and we don't actually answer the question. The instructor can then break down the question, read the stimulus and breakdown the answer choices exposing trap answers and things like that before we have to jump in and answer without being familiar with what kind of questions would apply to the lesson and a proper tact to approach the question.

This is especially so with conditionals because there are SO MANY different conditional questions on the test and different types it would be great to see most of those questions broken down in the lesson so I know how to approach answering that kind of question.

I recognize and appreciate the fact that we are getting the "You Try" sample test questions but it just feels late and like I haven't been properly prepped to answer the test question when we don't know the structure and breakdown of the questions.

It just feels like there is still more that can be done in the foundational lessons to where I can feel more prepared to look at an actual test question and know how to approach it, what to look for, how to apply what I'm learning and so on and so forth. I would prefer to get that teaching before getting it right or wrong.

Thank you

When to incorporate live classes into self-guided study plan

HI!

I watched an introductory video on 7sage which gave an explanation on each of the services 7sage provides. I am doing the self-guided study plan which I have been loving so I far I just need to commit and prioritize studying more.

However, I am trying to determine when to incorporate the live classes feature into my studying. The introductory video I watched didn't really specify when you should start utilizing the live classes during the self-guided study plan. Should I wait until i get into the practice portion of the study plan, when I am doing drills and practice tests to join live classes?

I did Princeton Review in the past so I am use to a live course program which is the complete opposite of self-guided. It puts you on a required schedule that you have to follow, so every lesson was a live class.

I want to be able to utilize the live classes feature on 7sage but I am not sure when to incorporate it. Any advice from any instructors or students who are also doing a self-guided study plan would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

Question: how do you know which out of the many nouns is the correct subject? And the same for the verbs, how do you know which one is the predicate. i notice I'm having a little trouble determining the correct subject and predicate when fleshing out the simple sentence (if that makes any sense)
