For Question 10: C is the correct answer because it is a soft statement. "Discuss implications of research" is easy to agree with. Does the author talk about their research? Yes. Does the author talk about what the research does or does not imply? Yes. This was hard for me to recognize at first, although none of these answers felt good. I chose A as a guess. Though I understand why all are wrong I could not see why C was correct until now.
Question 11: I knew the author was not against the multiverse at least in this paragraph, but I will need to pay close attention to words like e"not necessarily" and "Something like the multiverse" which make for a weak conclusion. Thanks JY
I think I was stuck on the same point. You are on the right track it seems. The outliers imply something irrational is happening with that data. So if uncorrected data is an outlier, even if 90/100 of the data points are correct (though strange) correcting just those last 10 data points is going to likely push the corrected data closer to jones' theory than that same data set was before correction (the uncorrected data).
When I first read this, I felt like correcting the data didn't have to mean that the data set would move closer to Jones' theory, just because it was given more scrutiny. But it seems more true than the other q's.
Am I wrong to assume that Jones' theory could be incorrect, and therefore correct data may not move closer? #Help
Am I the only one who felt like it was an assumption that fire pits were competing for goods? I got the answer write initially but changed on the BR because I overthought it.
I came to the comments to see if anyone felt similarly. It follows that someone has to have the knowledge to cultivate before they can cultivate. But JY makes a fair point that "theoretical knowledge" of cultivation is not what the passage is referring to. It refers more closely to the principles directly. I think it is a trap answer, but I wonder if someone could flesh out how this is wrong more accurately. Otherwise, you are correct that the answer choices lead more directly and that is the reason for the correctness.
Hi all,
So I have withdrawn from April test and plan to take in June -- but my April LSAT writing is still live.
Anyone know if I will need to cancel this separately, or if I can just take it whenever I want between now and June? I'll reach out to LSAC on monday but wondering if anyone has encountered similar thing for Flex. Thnx

The eliminate answer button has suddenly disspeared from problem sets. Anyone know how to add it back??
If clicking the answer is unreliable/ not working I have been highlighting part of the answer as I go to stand in for the elimination button -- that way anything that i know is wrong I can highlight--- its a good work around for now!
I was between D and E. I originally chose E because "unimportant"did not seem supported by the question. A matter can be overlooked but still important. However, On BR I changed my answer because of the word "problematic." The tensions that were overlooked were not a problem during the war... and now economic negotiations have to be handled delicately in order to prevent creating a problem (arousing this tension). The more I thought about it, as long as the tensions weren't aroused there wasn't necessarily a problem? I think i read too much into it because any "tension" is inherently a problem. But problems are being avoided as long as they are handled with tact. IDK i think i read too much into this. I rationalized D because it felt like the weaker statement of E, in that, if it was unimportant it was categorically overlooked. Obviously, this was all wrong in the end, but wanted to add my thoughts in case anyone had a similar hang-up on that word.
