LSAT 1 - Section 4 - Question 21
Just wanted to comeback to this lesson and show that there is a difference between some and many. As in the answer choices for this question, many implies some like the lesson teaches but is an actual instance where the test will actually penalize this conflation.
#feedback
#feedback I got confused because the referential phrasing of "this kind of acceptance" I had thought referred back to "those choices accepted by others"
Any good reasons for why this is wrong (besides the fact that its the wrong answer), and how to move forward to avoid this mistake?
I was planning to study for the August 2024 LSAT but now that LG is gone, should I just stop studying it? How does this affect the core curriculum of 7sage, are they just going to remove it? From now on, do I just stop doing the LG section on PTs?
So confused, please let me know what you all are going to do.
I disagree, I think the two changes in the studies were:
1. Increase in calories
2. Calories stay the same
The study states that BF increases in both 1 and 2 by the same amount. Therefore, the increase of body fat is not dependent on calories alone because Group 1 had consumed more calories than Group 2 yet they have the same body fat gains.
This explains why D is correct.
The passage states that Group 2 did not increase the number of calories they ate but simply replaced a portion of their current calories with alcohol. This means that of their previous calorie diet (imagine it is 1000 calories), they replaced 25% of the previous calorie diet with alcohol calories (250 calories are now calories from alcohol) but still have the calorie diet from before (1000 calories overall, but now 250 of the 1000 calories are alcohol).
This implies that although calories of Group 2 stay the exact same, body fat still increases and therefore calories is not the only reason for body fat changes.
Got stumped and chose answer A because I felt that E was too similar to context. I saw an answer saying that the "Most people..." was about how people felt and that the conclusion of "Such self knowledge..." was a fact about the world.
Maybe my English is bad but how does the sentence"Such self knowledge, however, is not the easiest to acquire" the same as "people are not necessarily reliable authorities about what they really want."
To me, difficulty in acquiring something is different than claiming that they don't know what they want.

I chose answer choice A in both actual and blind review but it was stuck between A and E.
Took me some time but here is why I think answer choice E is correct:
Sarah: Reporters choosing certain events over others → Reporter interprets news
Ramon: Reporters deeming a story to be newsworthy (equivalent to reporters choosing certain events over others) → Story when relayed is untainted (equivalent to reporter NOT interpreting news because untainted implies that it has not been interpretated)
Sarah: Reporting certain events → Interpretation
Ramon: Reporting certain events → /Interpretation
Answer choice E: Reporting on certain events rather than others qualifies as interpreting the news.
