colonel did you enjoy the mirrors passage?

if we are being honest, I like dense passages more than others bc I hate inference questions in rc. I thought the first question in it was annoying but the rest werent tooo terrible. It was the innate ability one that I made the dumber mistakes on. But overall I felt good about the section bc rc is usually my worst of the 4

I stared at that first question for a good while but ended up w/ some right answer circling, still missed two questions on it though (don't remember which ones), which is a lot for me OH SORRY QUIGZ I MEAN THAT'S ACTUALLY BETTER THAN NORMAL

yeah RC has become my worst section, instead of LG, because #drilling #mostlearnablesection

Speaking of question 1, it really seemed like the passage is saying that it's actual mechanisms are still up for debate am I inferring too much? It
Also seemed like the right answer is based on a very narrow part of the passage

Edit: SORRY FOR SPECIFIC Q DISCUSSION

who's quiggers

Someone who told me to grease it.

Explain this statement PNJ

It's possible he's referring to a specific stage in coitus commonly practiced by more progressive members of the Homo Sapien species. Generally, intercourse between two individuals involve insertion of the male's genitalia into the female's respective counterpart. However, some individuals prefer to instead involve the rectum due to its contracted and taut nature. This latter activity almost universally requires the use of a lubricant, which is perhaps what quiggers is referring to when he mentioned "grease".

THANKS PNJ FOR EXPLAININ

btw, real talk, can someone just walk me their thought process on necc/suff. Whenever a problem comes up, I immediately read the stem and write SA or NA next to it. But for the typical problem, what is your process step by step? Like, as far as how you eliminate, how you attack, when you negate, etc.

You said you haven't used study books, right? The Trainer has this great section where Kim describes the kinds of wrong answers you'll see with NA questions, IIRC. There's always going to be one or two questions that are out of scope, usually one that misinterprets the stimulus' argument and one that does the complete opposite, etc.

Anyone remember this?

UGH work this week -_-

So with both assumption questions I find it helpful to figure out what the conclusion is - I know it sounds trivial but I had trouble with this for a while- and then after that for suff assumption I almost look at it as an MSS flipped and reversed - like most strongly supports the conclusion instead of supported by the stimulus

I don't have it in front of me but I remember thinking that while it would be reasonable to conclude from the passage that what the proper theory is, is still up for debate, but it doesn't actually come out and say that, whereas it does explicitly state that the correct theory needs to incorporate both elements. But it's weird to present that as the main point of the passage - it is only thrown in there at the end. Shitty question. SORRY DECEMBER THREAD WE ARE DISCUSSING A QUESTION

Thanks hand that actually makes a lot of sense
