I'm interested! Discord has been great for study groups as it doesn't have a time limit on meetings like Zoom if you do not have the upgraded version :)

I feel the same and test on the same date as you.... my test anxiety has been eating me alive to the point that it's been difficult to study this week because I'm too in my head. My PTs this week have been my lowest and despite studying consistently and it's hurting my confidence. You're not alone!

I needed this, thank you :’)

I can try to explain this in how I solved it.

I was in between A and D until I realized D was a backward bridge.

Basically, the argument is saying beauty and truth are different.

IF they were the same and not different, the most realistic (aka truthful) artwork would be the best. BUT the stimulus is saying THIS IS NOT THE CASE because beauty does not equal truth..... so IF beauty was equal to truth and that makes the most truthful artworks best then it would HAVE to be the case that the best artworks are beautiful.

Hope that helps!

Thank you for this :')

I understand why D is correct, but I am having difficulty understanding how A is wrong. If we negate it and two pieces of paper don't have the same effect in a given context, then wouldn't that destroy the argument of paper having the exact same compositions? If two pieces of paper differ, although they're the same color, that would make the argument useless in using colored paper instead because it has the same issue as paint at that point.

When I was reading the stimulus, I was thinking in my head, well, what if paper of the same color is noticeably different? I think that's why it was an attractive answer to me as well.

So glad I picked A without reading the other choices. When I saw that it was necessary, I just moved on, but I think the other choices could have trapped me.

If you negate the CA choice, the argument falls apart. If it were the case that the DNA of our ancestors, prehistoric homo sapiens, were more similar to that of Neanderthals than our DNA today, then that would render the argument destroyed. The stimulus is saying that when they compared Neanderthal DNA to ours (humans today), they found significant differences, but we are left to assume that would be the case if they also examined the DNA of our ancestors.

I hope this helps!

I did this too! I don't understand this still!

UGH... I liked D because it said exactly what I was looking for minus the ANIMALS part.... we are specifically talking about humans in the stimulus, so I thought it was a trap answer choice. It still seems like a trap answer to me as we are talking about health risks to humans.... unless I should be thinking that humans are technically animals? Someone help.

Okay, for 13 JY crosses out A because it never mentions steel, and it does! It says, "She often worked with modern materials such as tubular STEEL"

For 14, I DON'T UNDERSTAND weren't we taught not to make assumptions like C? As soon as I read that, I crossed it out as I was like, "we don't know that", even while having the "best known for work in lacquer" highlighted :(

I hate this passage.

made the same error!

Picked D first, then changed to B :')

I submitted the form and would love to join :)

I'm interested :)

This is what I'm thinking too.... makes no sense to me!

I would wait. Don't sign up until you get your score up! Good luck!

Anyone else find that V2 is very confusing? I thought I would try it out and went back to V1 because even just explaining simple logic was done in a very obscure and convoluted manner.

They changed the LR recently and it seems more difficult now!

Can we still join if we don't live in the area?

I'm also studying full time and would love to join!

I had a hard time with C because we know nothing about cerebralspinal fluid and have to assume that it's a bad thing? I thought with MSS it has to have support from the passage and C has none..... I think reading the question stem I would've picked A, but I was stuck in thinking this had to coincide with MSS and it's really just asking us which statement, if true, contradicts the results of the study......yet if you don't know anything about cerebralspinal fluid, how would you determine whether it contradicts the study? I think this question should be placed elsewhere.
