I got 2 wrong because I did not pick up on sharply divided. I honed in on the part where Ginsburg concedes, so I was like oh okay she must agree somewhat and chose mild disapproval.
AGH!!
Hey!!! I think it's awesome you started to practice the more recent tests. As long as you keep pushing, reviewing, and working through it, with time you will eventually get the hang of it. Don't give up :)
This question was killing me, but ended up getting it correct last minute. I gave up and chose A because it did seem to clearly resemble the flaw in the stimulus.
I was thinking of C, D, or E, but because I was confused I specifically decided to figure out and articulate the flaw: the original has a problem, so the copy also has that problem. I was looking for this and I ended up choosing A.
This question hurt my soul. I chose C for the reasons other people stated before - just because they had an efficient technique doesn't mean they actually made lamps using that technique. Similarly I was torn with E, since just because they made more kinds of lamps doesn't mean they made more lamps.
The conditional relationship in E threw me off and I thought about it as a correlation. This is the wrong way to think about it.
Significant risk of collision → a lot of time on the road
a lot of time on the road → Significant risk of collision
I understand the contrapositive of this relationship much better. Of course there are many ways to have a significant risk of collision even if you don't spend a lot of time on the road like poor vision, being drunk, etc.
Same same - but I guess JY said that this was the only assumption so it could be both.
I noticed this was like a sufficient assumption question, and I wasn't sure if that was fine because this was a necessary assumption question. Note to self: Sometimes the necessary assumption answer is like a sufficient assumption.
I thought the same thing Nikki and chose C and got it wrong lol. I don't know, but I guess I wasn't engaging with the conclusion's bit about interactive television. I was more focused on trying to break the correlation/causation link.
I was thinking the exact same thing and this is what made it confusing for me. I was less confident about the other answer choices and ended up getting it correct even though I was uncertain about my answer choice.

Yes!!!!! This!!!! You are great @sharonnghile98780.

This was super helpful! Thank you so much
I am registered for April, but right now I am having second thoughts about sitting for it since I am not scoring where I want to.
Will schools see if I withdraw from the test? Also I tried to move it to June, but my coupon expires in April so it won’t let me move it to June. I’ll just register again and pay the regular amount, which is fine.
Also will schools see how often you’ve moved your test date around?
I have been reading this book called Atomic Habits! It might be helpful!
Even if you don't have the motivation, if you incorporate studies into your routine and make a habit out of it you will be okay! I know that was a really simplified and probably a dubious statement, but I highly encourage checking out the book.
You got this! Ease back into it and just make studying automatic. It's like brushing your teeth or whatever you do daily. It's just something you do.
JY SAID REVIEW THE NA CORE CURRICULUM OMGGGG. HE CALLED ME OUT FOR CHOOSING B.
Ok, sir. I will do as you say because you're probably right lol
I heard that people can do this! It doesn't hurt to ask if they could write one for you now. The worst they would say is no and you're at square one but you were at square one to begin with. Best case scenario they help you out and you have less to worry about.
Also, focus on one or two professors to build a relationship with them - go to office hours or work with them on their research or something. If you work with them outside of the classroom, they'll still remember you and help you out! I asked a two professors after 3-4 years out of the classroom and they were still super kind and willing to help me with my letters of recommendation. I was so happy they still remembered me.
Good luck :)
@maegankaezsunaz992
Yay thank you for the heads up!! Im going to try to make it :)

Passage A - Unreasonable consequences could be doing something that does not take into account harm and general trust.
Passage B - Doing everything to them that they are doing to us.
This one was hard. I still find it difficult to see how I could do this on my own without knowing this explanation.
