This took me a day..

For 2, i thought C was far too strong... In the first sentence they say "most authoritarian rulers WHO undertake" so we have a subset of authoritative rulers here. Then in the first sentence of second para they say "three major types of changes CAN" so we have changes that COULD bring about democracy. So from those combined with the final para that states that all authoritative regimes will bring about those changes, we know that authoritative regimes can become democratic, not that most will....

WHY IS THIS LISTED AS 2 STARS?!!?!!?!?!!?

This was the hardest passage I have encountered after more than a year of study...

Really appreciate the color here and that makes complete sense!

Can't D be explained as such:? Since the stimulus states that the subjects would have been more accurate with all top guesses, then it must be the case that some of these subjects sometimes guessed bottom and got wrong. Otherwise, the argument would not hold at all since, if D was negated, then the subjects did just as well or better than if they had picked all top.

No new material. They're just reorganizing old material

So they just took all of the already released ones, mixed them, stripped LG, and thats it?

I was really under the impression that some new material would be dropped.

B-R-U-H....

Why was this question so hard for me?? Anyone else?

Interested

C is still wrong no doubt, but I think JY's interpretation/diagram of it is incorrect. C is saying manufacturers will sell the same products under different model names. The way JY drew it would be if C rather had said "manufacturers sell different products under the same model name". Is my thinking correct?

Negating B: why can it not be the case that it is to the advantage of no individuals and rather it is merely neutral to them.

With this I believe the argument would still hold...

C might be correct if it rather said something along the lines of: "the frequency in the use of words in social media is not necessarily indicative of the frequency of the use of words NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE SAME FEELING in other forms of communication"

What was up with this LR section????

Terrible explanation for 25 B. The powerful argument being a compelling embodiment of objectivity does not mean that objectivity is essential to historical scholarship. #help

This explanation is gold

I found this question incredibly difficult and missed it on BR as well. I went with E because Marion might still take the train even though she hates it and thus may not have a good reason for doing so.

B also forgot the not violating anyone's human rights part.

That stimulus is something

My thinking for why B is wrong is because it explains why old trees might tend to be rare, but not why rare trees tend to be older (survive longer) than common trees.

I thought I did well on the Qs... 3/6

I completely convinced myself of C for Q2 in BR...
