my pre-phrase of the correct AC was "what if the retired people have PTSD from working on mondays?" lol

This passage ruined my RC score :( 4 wrong in this one passage!! :(

For #12, I thought it was asking what type of literary device is "potent Western literary convention" ... Not that what does that phrase actually mean... :(

the flaw was perfectly worded in my mind but I was between A and E.... went with E. FML

when I came across this question, I realized there were two premises in the argument and noticed the author kind of disregarded one of them (the risk of injury) in evaluating the safety. Answer choice D picks up on that.

hey, I got this one wrong and I realized that the stimulus says "fatalities" but C says "accidents." not the same

can all disagreement questions be this easy? lol

I fell for B because I interpreted it as a way of making our premises more relevant... :(

Also-- How are we supposed to infer that in C, the similarity in the acts attributed to other tyrants were written by enemies?

I selected B but changed it to E because I thought it was just too obvious!!!! fml

And here I was, confidently crossed out C because I thought, "who even talked about how humans perceive things?"

wow jy going through my exact thoughts during his first run at question #4 :(

Hey I'm interested

When I come across primary purpose questions, I ask myself, "why did the author write this? what are they trying to do here? why are we learning about this?"

However, for main idea questions, I ask, "what is the big picture here?" (not just one paragraph's main idea, but the WHOLE passage)

ok this took longer than 3 mins

when JY says "what are you talking about?!?!?!" to the wrong AC you selected :(((

I think D is wrong because the point at issue isn't whether or not the act of volunteering can be simply achieved by developing a school's policy, the issue is rather about forcing students to do community service that will foster volunteering. D COMPLETELY misses the part about community service, which is what the disagreement between Sarah and Paul revolves around. Also, the disagreement isn't focusing on developing a policy, it is talking about the effects of it.

the paleontologist's response kind of helped me with this question, even though the question completely disregards his part

While I got this question correct, I don't believe it's 1/5 difficulty.... took me some time

Did anybody else think D was just too obvious of an answer? and went with E instead? :(

I saw C as a way to block any attacks to the argument.

As the conclusion states, "installing devices in ALL cars that prevent those cars from traveling faster than the speed limit would prevent most accidents." If you take answer choice C and negate it to say, "a driver often needs to exceed the speed limit to avoid an accident when none of the other drivers involved are violating the speed limit," it would make you reconsider the conclusion and destroy our argument.

Why? Because if that's the case, installing the devices in all cars WOULDN'T prevent cars from traveling faster than the speed limit ... which would wreck the argument.

Hope that makes sense.

My problem with answer choice B is how do we know that attracting mates will successfully prevent extinction?

I completely missed the word "entirely" from "not entirely accurate" that's why I fell for A

so, "ensure" introduces a necessary condition?
