, does anyone know why we can't simply place both F&G in out group?
We can but that's only one possibility.
so our rule says when F out -->G out (in this case both F and G are out like you said)
Now lets take the contra…
My pleasure .
and yes, it was subtle indeed! I recently made a similar error on a question in another PT. It wasn't exactly this but they switched the nouns slightly. They went from "Steve's friendship with Abella" in stimulus to "Steve's discuss…
So the noun in answer choice "A" is "All descriptions of monstrous beast". But in our stimulus we only know about "Horror stories that describe a monstrous beast". So our stimulus tells us nothing about all descriptions of monstrous beasts that exis…
I think the speed for this answer will come from knowing what's possible what inferences you can actually make and have to make when a sufficient condition triggers.
The above statement actually can be put in a neat straight conditional chain inst…

Hey,
So the reason answer choice "E" works is because if you are rotating crops and by doing so you are denying these pathog…

If you have trouble with any of the questions you can also check previous discussion boards and see if somebody asked a question about it, if not or if you still have a question, feel free to post it on the forums. : )

So actually you are asking a very good question:
There are two types of NA answers: bridging and blocking.
The bridging answer choices act more like SA answers because they are connecting a very necessary gap in the stimulus. So if there is a gap…
