This is so helpful, thanks!

I think you use the elimination technique (4 wrong ACs, 1 right AC) for all question types. The only ones that I would say to not use that strategy for is 'Identify the Conclusion' and very simple 'Sufficient Assumption' questions.

For answer choice A, I thought the general principle to be "this characteristic is actually quite common" but can we even say that this is a general principle if it's the conclusion?

Could you elaborate more on what a general principle is? I think I'm always getting confused on what this is.

Could we say this as a general rule of thumb that "when the conclusion isn't a comparative statement, the PSA/SA/Strengthen answer choice shouldn't be a comparative statement as well?" I seem to get tripped up by comparative statement answer choices on the LSAT, would this be a reasonable inference to conclude?

If anyone can give me some feedback on this, that would be great!

For B, I thought it addressed the predict =/= predictable flaw because it's saying that the disconnect between the two occurs because of human error...maybe we just have really dumb economists who can never predict correctly, but it doesn't mean that the global recessions themselves aren't predictable.

Could someone explain this further? I was stuck between B and D and ended up choosing the wrong answer.
