Can I just say, I listen to these podcasts religiously. (Specifically the "7sager X-Y" score jump ones). They are so beneficial, so many tips and techniques that I find that directly impact the quality of my studying. More of these kinds of podcasts please!

#help, I picked A out of confusion from the stimulus. The premise says the tally consists of the coal that was mined that was not consumed. So I imagine, Country Q mines 100, the tally is 100. What made you, or J.Y. decide that you had to subtract Y from the tally because I didn't even consider such a thing and I don't think I ever would the way the stimulus mentions it.

AC A was so confusing because of the usage of the word "but". The usual English language implies "but" to be the opposite of what was said. So AC A made it seem like it wasn't washed after harvest, but it was washed before reaching the cafeteria. Which HURTS the argument. Looking through the comments here someone said that "but" can sometimes imply "and". Is that something that is common with the LSAT kind of like its understanding of "or/or both"? Should I engrain this type of situation to memory?

How am I supposed to know the translation rule if I haven't gotten to that part of the core curriculum yet? This seems like a negative of 7sage, forcing me to get questions wrong I have no idea how to do yet until future lessons. I'm sure this is different when you're doing the PT, but why add this to the core curriculum if it hasn't been addressed yet?
