I did at first but B wants us to assume that a diseased sage has some correlation with it's airsac...maybe it's as beak fungus, some disease on it's feathers, athlete chicken feet? Despite even being treated (whether it worked or didnt) they didnt mate with them, but it does not mean they didnt mate because the disease affected the airsacs. Remember most strongly supported has a lower logic entry point than "must be true." Yes D does also make the assumption you mentioned, and this is an acceptable assumption, it MOST strongly supports the conclusion, none of the others support the conclusion, including B (per the reasoning above). It's not that D supports the conclusion BETTER than B does, B does not support the conclusion at all, only D MOST supports the conclusion.

@sx0302387 so you'd recommend say, getting to the core curriculum problem set doing x amount and then waiting to do a blind review (i.e. opening different tabs for each problem set and treating it similar to a PT?)

@dangelomjoyce773-2 agreed on the practice sets but when you are doing drills or problem sets in the core curriculum is it also recommended to take an hr/next day break or it it wiser to follow up immediately?

I somehow read this as a strengthening question like a moron lol. Soot -> /Ailment. I read it as Soot -> Ailment and chose B. Well at least I understood how to answer this problem if I read it correctly haha.

I had a feeling A was correct but I still went with B. I assumed that perhaps there could be comorbid disease to which X could be harmful towards, so if you had disease A and B, and treatment X is beneficial to A but harmful to B, where as Y is beneficial to both then you would chose Y. I understand why A is correct but what if I don't grant that animals are important when it comes to being tested on, if it benefits humans? Why is a value judgment about animals that aren't in the stimulus a better weakening objection than the possibility of comorbidity (which is also not in the stimulus) how do you determine which assumption is warranted?

Agreed, oddly, as im going through the video review and having done some more stuff, it's actually quite more clear as to why A is the correct answer. My pitfall was seeing the conclusion at the end as being restated as E, where the main point that even allowed for that conclusion is A. I guess now I need to study more on main points/conclusions/multiple conclusions in RC.

On the 2007 prep test, I was unable to arrive at the correct conclusion for RC#13. I was confident that my answer was right and I even got it wrong during blind review. Even now, I’m unsure that I’d be able to deduce this quickly on a test. When I get to the RC section and begin doing drills, how can I study for this type of question? Are all Art, InfAP and Co questions similar?

Not only did I get RC# 13 incorrect, I did so confidently (lol) and both on blind review AND this video review I was unable to arrive at the correct conclusion. Even now, I'm unsure that I'd be able to deduce this quickly on a test. When I get to the RC section and begin doing drills, how can I study for this type of question? Are all Art, InfAP and Co questions similar?
