Game board videos #help

I'm really struggling to set up my game boards both quickly and in a manner that is helpful to solve the games. For example, I did PT 34, S4 today and could not for the life of me figure out how to set up the game board. Once I watched the explanation, it made total sense and it took me about :30 to answer each question.

Are there videos/tutorials I'm missing outside of these following lessons?:

Introduction to Logic Games & Sequencing Games

Sequencing Games with a Twist

Introduction to Grouping Games: The In-Out Games

Grouping Games

Grouping Games with a Chart

Grouping and Sequencing Games

Any other resources on learning how to set up game boards quickly and in a manner that actually helps the game would be much appreciated!

I selected D because B doesn't seem to follow the stimulus. The stimulus does not state the baseline condition of those in the study.

The stimulus instead states that those who took Vitamin XYZ exhibited a lower risk for heart disease. It does not say that that their risk for heart disease decreased - only that it was lower. Lower does not necessarily mean that it is lower than when they started taking it, only that it was lower than those in the control group, whose baseline condition we also don't know.

Answer B states that people will experience an increase in the likelihood of avoiding heart disease. But again, we don't know their baseline condition, nor do we know if Vitamin XYZ actually decreases the risk.

In my mind, this is a case of correlation vs. causation. Taking Vitamin XYZ and lower risk for heart disease is correlated - the vitamin is not yet proven to be the cause of lower risk.

J.Y.'s explanation that some adults might have a particular gene mutation doesn't hold, because that would mean that most adults have the gene mutation - in which case is it really a mutation if most people have it?

I do agree, however, that recommending taking the vitamin for an entire lifespan doesn't really follow a single 2-year study.
