What?!!! I eliminated answer choice B because of "before any other people ARE KNOWN to have done so." Answer choice B just straight up says that no other people did so, period, with certainty.

That feeling when you try to read carefully and get punished for it anyway 😢

I guess that's why it's MSS and not MBT, but it still feels lame to me. Wrong is wrong...I don't contend that A, C, D, and E are "more wrong" than B. They're just all wrong.

The first sentence of this passage was written by someone truly evil.

@ said:

Are you for real? With the amount of ethical dilemmas LSAT problems pose it didn't cross your mind that this is unethical and constitutes cheating? Or do you just not care?

I suspected you couldn't, but came here to verify that. I don't think your condescending and hostile tone was necessary.

I am also frustrated with my inability to scribble notes next to RC passages in the digital format. For example, underlining a few words and writing "phen" and "hyp" next to them (phenomenon and hypothesis) is so instantaneous with pencil and paper. But digitally, I can't write "phen" and "hyp" and I have to take great care with my mouse to only underline the words I want to (sometimes if I move my mouse up/down slightly, I end up annotating way more than I wanted to)

Where does the stimulus say anything about acquiring knowledge?

I don't think there is really a strong argument for a real logical distinction between B and C.

This is a pretty lame question in my opinion. I eliminated A right off the bat because it says "most wildlife" -- what if the pesticides adversely effected predators, but not deer? Or both, but predators more so than deer? Also, what does "adversely affect" mean? Does it mean that it causes their preferred flavor of Gatorade to be out of stock?

B at least somewhat counteracts one of the anti-deer forces, albeit weakly. It protects the deer from a specific one of the anti-deer things that the argument listed.

I would describe B as "weak, but somewhat helpful in resolving the discrepancy" whereas A is "strong in resolving the discrepancy only if a huge assumption is made"

My judgment of this question is as follows: it sucks.

This shouldn't be included in the MBF set. You have to assume that crows only move to places where there are food, and we are not told this. Maybe crows are stupid and just move to another place that also has no food. I say that answer choice E could be false, not must be. So this shouldn't be included in the MBF set.

The fact that you were required to infer/assume that coal carries over to the next year felt like a cheap trick on this to me. Screw this question.

Are you sure?
