I'm with you. Last time a PT had a similar question, I thought the passages were similar reading level and for a gen. audience, but that wasn't the case!

I put A because it's an alternative to "willingness to pay shows that they really need those goods" not "price gouging... is efficient". Grr.

Best passage ever.

I had the same line of reasoning, what swayed me was that A required too many assumptions.

I made the exact same mistake down to the reading/reasoning. It's just worded poorly, lol.

Idk, but these videos give me a crush on JY, LOL.

It sounds dumb, but I had a fairly logical reason for selecting E...

Caffeine = excrete calcium = low calcium

High calcium = excrete calcium = no low calcium (weakens the wrong section of the argument)

That's great, thank you!

If I do 2-3 a week, either the second or third is a lower score. You can overload your brain, so just see how you're performing.

That's why I switched to B. :-/

Dear Scholars,

Please just don't write stuff like this.

All the best,

Me

I freakin' thought exactly what J said in the vid and now I feel so bad, LOL. I did NOT understand this passage at all and I got 4/6.

No way I'd ever get this one because it just sounds false unless you take the time to break it down. Who has time? T_T

"They do not rely solely on oxygen held in their lungs," by itself would fully support selecting A over B because the spleen could be used only in instances of LONGER dives. The only reason I wavered was because A seems like a trick answer, too easy.

Q24

Why wouldn't the author agree with the NEW model? (E) What is the point of presenting the info. if the author agrees with the old model? (B) I obviously missed something...

Omg, yessss. I'm realizing that I'm an over-thinker, which I guess is better than not thinking at all? Grumble.

"No, you dumb@$$" :,-)
