Why is it necessary to even draw a distinction between Pseudo Sufficient Assumption and Strengthening questions? In either event, isn't the strategy to just see which of the answer choices most strengthens the argument. I know that there's a higher burden on PSA answer choices, but why is it useful to know this at the point at which we're already using a process of comparison between answer choices to find the one that most strengthens the argument?

I guess another way of asking my question is, like, am I in trouble if I mislabeled 4 Strengthening questions as Pseudo Sufficient Assumption questions?

One thing that's worked quite well for me has been mindfulness meditation before taking a practice test. It sounds like you're pretty stressed out... that cumulative stress can cloud your thinking as you go through the test.

When I saw the title of this post I thought that you meant the other sense of "tear." Hahaha! At least that didn't happen for you. I'm sure it will be fine, as other commenters have noted.
