Is there a way to diagram this? If not, what is a good way to approach understanding this stimulus or stimulus' like this? Thank you

    @Crook, thanks for your question! In this case, understanding the overall flow of logic may be more helpful and time-efficient than diagramming. In doing this, I would recommend focusing on variables and how their relationships change throughout the argument's progression. You should also consider the wording used in transitions (here we see identical uses of "although," "such," and "actually"). Also, we know that we are looking for flawed reasoning, so you can eliminate any answer choice that makes a valid logical argument. Nevertheless, you can diagram the quantifying statements in the passage. Remember, "many" means at least one and can be substituted for "some." Therefore, we can say: PC - some - not TOA. We can also diagram the most statement to say: EW - most - TOA. Does this help? Let us know if you have additional questions!
