Check up the definition of qualify: like JY says, it establishes 'limits or bounds'.

Even if you didn't know what the alternative definition was (I didn't), I think this answer choice is just a classic LSAT trick of playing on your bias after reading that make you strongly lean towards over-assuming something that you're not supposed to.

In this question to further deny B as the correct answer:

'Problem that MUST be solved' : where in the passage does it say that the madder thing MUST be solved? Only says 'must be stressed in line 48' - classic overassumption

E is tricky if you read through too fast: 'On most of the occasions when the meteorologist's forecast that it would NOT rain, at least one of its competitors also forecast that it would NOT rain'.

If you skim over that first 'not', you might assume that the TV station is actually better than its competitors for predicting the weather right. This ans is carefully placed at E for if you miss that first pass through the answer choices as well. LSAT writers are so tricky! Always remember: careful reading is always rewarded.

Awesome explanation.

Like you've said: I think the biggest danger for a pre-emptive elimination of A is making the assumption that if there are 'more S people', the 'likelihood' of picking a 'C' person for their characteristics (referring to Stim: quality of difference between two groups is that 'C is less likely to find a job') is lower.
