Re: Q16

I've been able to arrive at the answer being E by trying a ton of different orders of elements and by peeking at the diagram in the answers in the book. However - I don't really understand what would have been the correct way to approach a problem like this. I was thinking that since QRS can't touch...

Re: Q12

I was just wondering if there's a quick way to identify which of these answers to test first? I ran through them the same way Patrick did, looking to see if any triggered any rules - but are there things we know about O, S, P, etc. (for example) that might suggest hunting for answer choice D and tes...

Q17

I got this answer right by moving through the answer choices one by one - writing on diagrams, and then figuring out that E doesn't work. Would there have been a better strategy to identify which answer choices were more likely to be correct (or which elements to look for, etc.)?

Re: Diagram

One of the rules for this game is that if L is not on Saturday, then L comes before F. The contrapositive of the statement is: If L is not before F (in this game, F-L, since F has to go in the beginning of the week, where it's not possible for two librarians to go on the same day), then L is on Satu...

Re: Q10 - The more sunlight our planet reflects back into space

While your explanation for this question makes sense in terms of identifying a strengthener answer choice as one that defends the argument from a particular attack, I'm a little bit confused by your specific explanation of why (C) is the answer. The argument states that "Snow and ice reflect mu...

Re: Q10 - The more sunlight our planet reflects back into space

I'm a little confused by your explanation of why (C) is correct. I get that with a strengthen question we are looking for statements that defend the argument from particular attacks that could undermine it...but I don't see from your explanation how (C) is doing that. The argument states in a premis...

Re: Q11 - Career consultant: The most popular

I definitely see why A is right - and I struggled with this question because I didn't notice the employers-employees term shift. I eventually decided on C based on the following logic. Was just hoping someone could address this theory, since it's not exactly the logical negative error described abov...
