It's not technically a retake, but I am taking the test in November. I originally signed up for the September test, but I backed out because I knew I wasn't ready. Here's my schedule:

Monday: LG drills

Tuesday: Timed LG practice sections

Wednesday: LR and RC drills

Thursday: PT

Friday: BR

Saturday: LR

Sunday: rest

Currently scoring 154 with a goal of 160.

After writing it out on pen and paper, I think I get it why answer A is correct.

Computers perform to closest action to thinking as humans do. Non-human animals rank lower than computers in their ability to think. Computers do not have volitional powers, where as some non human animals do have volitional powers. So, it follows that one of these animals has volitional powers, but does not think. This, an animal does not need to think in order to have volitional powers.

I am confused. The question states that people are encouraged to develop positive feelings toward products that they previously had negative or neutral feelings about. So, how can answer E be correct? As answer E is about advertisements with photos of products that the target audience already like.

Hey, I was also wondering why answer E was not correct. Because, as you pointed out, the stimulus in conditional form goes: I → D and the contrapositive is /D → /I. What I am gathering is that, the question does not ask the test taker to logically complete the argument, it's asking the test taker to simple identify a statement that is most strongly supported by the editorialist. This, I think I understand, is different than logically completing the argument.

But, still, it is difficult to comprehend why C is correct because the answer, conditionally, is /I → /D.
