I also thought of the same assumption!

I had this same thought process

so relatable...

Because Answer Choice B was correct over Answer Choice A, does that mean that we should always keep the premise in order with the conclusion? A=B but B doesn't = A?

#help my stimulus, question, and the answers are shifting all over the place making it hard to read. Is this a glitch? How can I fix this?

Caught myself at the last minute thinking that D was the right answer, but then thought about how it would strengthen and correctly identified A.

D would weaken considerably while A would provide some support

Blind review saves! Taking time to slowly and carefully understand each answer option obviously helps me understand what each means. Hopefully I can eventually begin to do this quicker with practice!

Finally got this! Correct and under the target time! Made my initial choice of B by mentally making a chain of events and B was the one that added up. During blind review I took the time to write down my thought process and came to the same conclusion.

Invest→Rush Hour Traffic Increase→Better Financial P.

A + B = C

Without A you cannot get to C

Blind review really saved me on this one. The target time stresses me out so I choose A. Upon taking my time during the Blind review helped me realize that the correct answer is D through a process of elimination.

10000% agree!! The tedious Foundation lessons feel like they were actually worth it!

For the second example... Would it be correct to also say:

Premise 1: D Some BMR

Premise 2: D->T

--------------------------

Conclusion: T Some BMR

From what I understand... "Cannot" makes the fact that Amidala cannot deliver he speech to be a necessary condition. "Unless" makes the attempt to assassinate her fail the sufficient condition. Since in both cases of the indicator words you must negate it will also work if you don't negate either.
