Wooo first 5/5 drill!

Learning the question types and doing them over and over again will help me get faster. But right now I just want to make sure I'm applying the fundamentals correctly.

I'm sure I'll need to come back to the fundamentals later and really ingrain them within me once I understand their application on the test.

Q4 threw me off because I just kept playing the scene in my head of Little Finger bringing the Knights of the Vale to Winterfell. I'm like 'surely the Vale benefits from War because War brings chaos and chaos is a ladder!'

Got the last two of these right after getting some easier ones wrong. Definitely helps slowing down and highlighting the conclusion so I can see which answers actually support the conclusion.

If you're not quite grasping the lesson, I would say do all four groups, then come back to this first one and apply your knowledge. I struggled on a few of these when I first encountered them, but after writing a cheat sheet on a notecard and coming back to them, I clearly see where I was confused before.

Set theory is pretty fascinating. I love Russell's paradox: According to the unrestricted comprehension principle, for any sufficiently well-defined property, there is the set of all and only the objects that have that property. Let R be the set of all sets that are not members of themselves. (This set is sometimes called "the Russell set".) If R is not a member of itself, then its definition entails that it is a member of itself; yet, if it is a member of itself, then it is not a member of itself, since it is the set of all sets that are not members of themselves. The resulting contradiction is Russell's paradox.

I got it wrong because I thought C was too obvious. It's good, though, because now I can actually understand why it's the right answer and why the other ones are wrong rather than going off straight intuition.

I'm so proud I got this one right in 44 seconds. I didn't read the other questions after B since the worst thing I could do was to continue reading the other answers and start confusing myself.

I got this wrong because I was so focused on making the latter conclusion correct that I ignored E making the previous conclusion correct.

Ugh I knew D was correct but my assumption got in the way that there's no way stretching is all a cat needs to do to keep is musculature. And I answered incorrectly with my cat sitting on my lap. The shame!

A is actually saying the same thing in the stimulus, just in an obscure way. There may be less thieves abandoning cars because they are being caught before they can abandon them, hence conviction rates going up.

But I only got this one right because of POE and all the other answers being contradictory.
