When to move on...

[ericha3535]

According to what I have learned so far...
I thought that most supported question involves with a correct answer choice that is weakly worded.

Let's talk about an example real quick!

LR 23, Section 3 #12
I have no idea how B is right!
the argument talks about that taking pill could cause a person to have a healthy heart. The researchers "correct" this by saying that no, it's the healthy habits that are causes.

Ok, I sort of could see how B is right.
But, by last statement (about researchers refuting the result of study), B should have the word like "likely."

But B instead is strongly worded, that people who take pill WILL be healthier than before.

I was like whatttt? How is such strong language justified while the researcher just has refuted the study!

But I agree that B is the best answer choice out of 5. Is that good enough of a reason to move on?

Thanks!

This seemed more focused on the specific question you referenced than the general question, but, yes, when you think you've found the best of the 5, move on. (If you're unsettled by the question -- i.e., you're not convinced you're right -- circle the problem number on your test booklet and revisit that question if you have time remaining at the end ... if you don't have time remaining at the end, then all the more important that you move on!)

Appreciate the variety of correct answer: some we KNOW are right, others we just think are right because the others seem wrong-er.

The latter category never leaves you fully satisfied, so you have to just trust it and let the chips fall where they may.

As to the actual question you brought up, why not read the thread and add something to the conversation if you want to:
