#help But if 98 are correctly addressed mail and 97 are incorrectly addressed, does that still make the statement "large proportion" an accurate description of the latter group? From this, I'm assuming that large proportion does not equal "most" or "larger proportion" of mail.

So just because you can see the light from Earth doesn't mean the thing from which the light emanated continues to exist.

C - oldest trick in the game

I was able to arrive at answer choice B and cross out C for a slightly different reason.

From the sentence, "An employer should therefore engage the employee in a nonthreatening dialogue that emphasizes the positive contributions of the employee to the development of such ideas," I interpreted "such ideas" to refer back to the "suggestions the [employees] did not generate." Which means that by facilitating a dialogue in which the employer is telling the employees how much they contributed to the ideas that they actually did not generate. This falls perfectly with answer choice B, which states that "Employees are more likely to cary out ideas for improved efficiency that they believe they have participated in generating."

Where can I find the video on negating universal claims? #help

#help The word "on average" always trips me up. What is the difference between just saying "Therefore, people today pay less..." and "Therefore, ON AVERAGE, people today pay less..."???

How many months have you been studying and how many PTs have you taken? I also was extremely frustrated with my progress because of my lack of performance under time, but after taking over 10 practice tests, I started to get a hang of it.

The logical diagram I drew in my head for this was: "orbit some planet" = "orbit the planet Alpha" --> what's the missing link here? The only planet must be Alpha.

Don't worry!!! Finishing the CC is one thing, getting used to taking PTs is another. The same thing happened to me and I freaked out, but after doing games 1-10, realizing my strengths/weaknesses in actual PTs, I re-drilled those concepts/question types. After doing that, scores started going up.

Did anyone get these answers right the first time around just by process of elimination?

So is the assumption made in the stimulus that Homer works were available to be translated, but that they just weren't b/c there was no demand for them?

This is a 1-point difficulty question but for some reason, this took up the most time in problem set 7!! Frustrating.

#help What is the difference b/w Strengthen and Resolve/Reconcile/Explain questions?

I agree w/ @Daverted. Does anyone have a better explanation than JY gives for why (B) is not a good answer as opposed to (A)? #help

I’m currently taking a class from another instructor simultaneously, and I just wanna say that JY is truly the greatest for his theoretical explanations.

Is it apt to understand necessary assumption questions as finding whatever is the necessary condition of the conclusion stated in the stimulus? For example, “I am the best basketball player —> I am alive”?

CONGRATS!!!! Bumping @ 's question!!

I used to have a similar problem and what helped me was really scrutinizing the answer choices; some of them "looked right" at first glance but when I really understood what it was saying it was garbage

Is that 178 a typo and meant to be 168? If not, why do you think you scored so much higher on PT 36 than PTs 38 and 40. Had you seen sections/questions in it before taking it? Also, you'd probably be pretty close to your goal if you got LG to -0. Perhaps you should focus on that before taking more PTs.

Nope not a typo. PT 36 was the first time taking another PT after a two-week break that was focused on just doing LG. I think it was luck, freshness of taking a PT after a while...I honestly don't know lol.

I'm on the same boat and am registered for November!

Interested! Also PTing in that range looking to receive that target score.

Definitely. But do some more PTs in the 80s and you’ll get the hang of it
