D and E Comparison

Hello @EmmaD, Here is my diagram of the stimulus. PS ---> AM or DF The play is not successful, which negates the sufficient condition. However, remember that negating the sufficient condition has no effect on the necessary. It is still possible that one or both of the necessary conditions occurs. This is why E is correct, which you seem to understand. Let's discuss D. The author has (incorrectly) eliminated movie adaptations and the Decade Festival as possibilities. However, does the author ever say that there are no other avenues? The author never says the play can't be revived at a different festival, or adapted as a television series. It seems like you took "avenues" to mean sufficient conditions. However, it is referring to alternatives to the movie adaptation and Decade Festival.

Oh I see how I was reading it incorrectly now, thank you!

Hey, so I just have a question about the language used in this question. I diagrammed the question and contrapositive correctly, but I thought that in the contrapositive AM and DF are now the sufficient parts and PS is the necessary condition? Will most LSAT questions refer to the original sufficient condition as sufficient in the contrapositive?
