E really kind of tricked me and I don't think JY does a good job explaining it. You could have European people who graduated from North American colleges.

I think you can assume that at least SOME European people graduated from colleges outside of NA.

I was able to get the right answer through process of elimination. Isn't B irrelevant thought? Just because the company has always had bad plays, doesn't mean this one won't break the trend.

I thought main point questions were supposed to have their answer paraphrased in the stimulus. This doesn't happen in this one though. In the CC, J.Y. says to do these questions that way as well. I feel like these questions are easy, but J.Y.'s approach leads you to get the wrong answer for some of them.

Hmm interesting. I think if I thought this was a principle question I would have gotten it right. I thought it was a parallel method of reasoning though.

I think that is an assumption you can make. If you have a chance to solve it then you must have enough clues to arrive at the correct answer.

How do you tell if it's a principle question? Sometimes the word principle is just thrown into stems even it is not that question type.

The issue with this is that linking legal permissibility to punishment is another assumption. So you would need something to link the two

Is C a sufficient assumption as well?

Does anyone have a better explanation for why D is wrong in Q7? JY's explanation is not very good...

I think this an important example of the benefits of reading the stem closely. I know JY just skims over it, but sometimes it has important information in it other than just the basic question type.

I think wording is really important with this answer choice. You can see how I explained it above.

I would be careful the stem doesn't say "voluntarily live a sedentary lifestyle". It says "voluntarily choose not to exercise" so these people are still included in that subset.

Just wanted to give another explanation for why A is wrong:

Except it says they ” voluntarily don’t exercise” in the Stim. A is wrong because you have to read the question stem carefully. The stem points out a weakener that “weakens the calculation”, this is important. A does not weaken the study at all because these people would already be correctly omitted from the study. HOWEVER, they also don’t voluntarily exercise but exercise because they are forced to. Thus even though they don’t exercise VOLUNTARILY they don’t live a sedentary lifestyle and therefore don’t incur healthcare costs. If the stem was worded differently, I think this answer could be correct, but then the ACs would obviously have to be different , because C is the better answer.

D also has "some" in the beginning. This is a way better reason to eliminate than J.Y.'s for this particular question I think

@kdbird106 thank you so much, it means a lot. But I take it from your comment that i'm better off studying than seeking accommodations?

I would say so. I am not saying not to seek accommodations. You may very well have a good case. However, accommodations are extremely unlikely and very difficult to get. You even said yourself that it will cost a lot of money in order to get properly tested. And even then, there is no guarantee that you will actually receive accommodations. Further, where you were only diagnosed recently as opposed to this being a long standing issue, it only adds to the likelihood that you won't receive accommodations.

The LSAC got sued in 2012, so I've heard it's easier to get now.

I understand why B is right, but I don't really understand why D is wrong? It seems to raise a similar flaw as the one pointed out in B.

Are answer choices like A and E ever right for any type of question?

#help

Are answers like D ever correct? I understand that it isn't sufficient and irrelevant because Murray does have a conviction. But, could that type of answer be correct for a strengthen question?

What were the RC calls?

Interesting. Do you cut out LG or RC questions? I feel like that would be a little harder to do.
