Students who study Core Curriculum and do Blind Review along with their prep tests tend to see increased scores. Charley did Blind Review along with each of his prep tests and started to study the Core Curriculum.

Which of the following is most strongly supported?

I took the June 2022 LSAT for the first time and was told section 4 was experimental. I Assumed that section 4 was experimental for this September 2022 test even though it didn't have the survey questions.... im literally having a panic attack. the first RC was easy for me the second RC I read the first passage said nope I don't have to do this and just selected random answers. I feel like they should have let me know somehow that this test or test moving forward will have the random experimental section. I literally am praying to any and all gods that the second reading comprehension is experimental.

Scoring a 0/5 once provides opportunity to learn about 5x more efficiently than does scoring 4/5 five times.

Ive taken and reviewed several hundred LSAT LR questions now, and 20-E is the first answer choice I am not satisfied with. The explanation given in this video is not entirely satisfactory, in my humble opinion.

Notwithstanding the tenets of this article https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/one-right-answer-choice/, I would like to hear a more convincing explanation for why E is the correct choice over A than that which is presented in the explanation video.

The passage states that "the investigators" referenced by the question stem believe they could "predict" "the behavior of" a "large interactive system" by "analyzing it's component mechanisms individually"

In answer choice A, a pollster "makes a prediction" about behavior, i.e. how a population (large system) will vote (behave). He does this by analyzing a sample of voter preferences (a component part of the election results delivered by said population)

By contrast, answer choice E analyses a bridge-- large, sure, in some cases... but "a large system?!" Furthermore, the engineer in E makes a "conclusion" about the bridges' structural soundness, not a "a prediction". A prediction implies a conclusion about something that is or will be true in the future, in contrast to the bridge's current structural soundness. Finally, to characterize "structural soundness" as a "behavior" of a bridge seems, to me, quite the stretch.
