PrepTest 157 · Section 4 · Question 21

Phase 1 (your first ~400 questions): read the guidance, then answer. No clock.

Step 1 · Pre-Question Guidance · read this first

Question type
Inference (Voice Tracker)
The one idea it tests
Predict what one camp would reject by using its known habit, here grouping similar populations together.
The basic logic
The older camp lumps similar groups into one. So it would push back on any claim that the true count of groups is much bigger than the current count. Find the statement that clashes with lumping.
Tiny words that decide it
  • “disagree”
  • “generally”
  • “group”

Playground logic

Combiners fold similar games together. So a claim that recess holds far more separate games than the List shows is exactly what they would argue against.

Step 2 · The kid passage

This question belongs to Passage 3 (Questions 15–22). Read its kid passage and structure guide first: What Counts as a Game? →

Step 3 · Try the model question

A Combiner would most likely reject which statement?

Choices

Step 5 · Work the real question

Open PrepTest 157, Section 4, Question 21 in your official copy from LSAC (for example in LawHub) and read it there.

Your answer

How to apply it

Open Question 21 in your official copy and answer it first.

Note the camp's habit from the first paragraph: does it group together or divide up? Predict what kind of claim would clash with that habit. Then look for the choice that runs against it. Cut statements the camp could happily accept and statements the passage never ties to that camp.
