@Kevin_Lin I demand it, highly :)

I didn't choose C because we didn't actually see the newspaper's advertisement. Guess that doesn't matter!

This video broke my brain. How does A strengthen the argument. If anything it's irrelevant. I could say space monkeys with Parkinson causing lasers do not increase iron levels... how would that strengthen the argument?

Why not just say "intermediate conclusion." So ridiculous.

@jmoney Kevin's explanation was good.

I didn't even understand what this question was asking. lmfao

This question makes me want to scream!

B) is not saying it presumes the sample was random, it says that there is a 50/50 chance of getting a defective items.

Now I get why D) is correct.

Worst. Question. Ever.

This confused me at first, but everyone needs to remember they are making an ASSUMPTION that she is delivering a speech. There is no direct relationship established between assassination failure leading to a speech.

The comments over explain this so lets break it down:

Sufficient Condition: Cited as late

Necessary Condition: More than 5+ minutes

Kumar is part of the superset (5+ minutes), not the subset (cited as late).

Thus, Kumar can arrive more than 5 minutes without being marked as late. He could get a warning, come in unnoticed, etc.

Beware of REVERSING THE CONDITIONAL

This one was hard, but it was the least wrong. (A) doesn’t bias the results of the experiment because both groups are treated equally. I wouldn’t argue that it strengthens it either. The question is does it WEAKEN it, not exactly.

@apk19e723 same

This is a bad question. Most would interpret the mall being PART of the local economy… this question acts as though it is NOT part of the local economy. I understand why so many got this wrong.

@elchapin agreed

This question tripped me up. I felt it was C but ultimately chose D because D isn’t describing the number of bass being caught. Yes, noise scares fish away (assumption), but D is describing less anglers go there because of the noise. I don’t think this was a well formulated drill.
