Interested! And down for a discord group! Or just any general study session :)
My understanding of why C was wrong is that all it does it doesn't hit on the crux of the argument, which is that psychotherapists MUST focus on external relationships -
C says that those patients who enact change feel some relief - o.k. but that's not what our argument said - nowhere in our initial argument did it say that "Psychotherapists who focus on changing their patients relationships will heal them." In fact, our conclusion is quite weak, and allows for focus on external relationships that DOES NOT in fact heal their patients - instead, it's simply saying a necessary requirement is a focus on external relationships.
D on the other hand destroys the argument if negated, saying that nah, you actually don't NEED to focus on external relationships - I spent forever on this question bc it did seem quite strong, but overall it just fits the N.A. that in order to heal, you need to do this, and yea D says if you don't do this nothing will heal.
My issue which caused me to miss both #11 and #14 was summarizing Passage A as being about the efficiency of markets to reflect peoples opinions vs. the relative inefficiency of B... instead of seeing A as describing markets as an almost autonomous entity vs. B as a reflection of opinion.
Issue is... even upon rereading I don't think that my initial interpretation is that off... I think both can be argued for given the passages themselves.
After all this work I best be getting a 170+ on Saturday 😤 .. but if not that's cool too sometimes things don't swing your way and there's many more than one opportunity :smile:
Taking the August one, likely taking the Oct one too so interested!
I'm down!
