I had more PR's

I arrived at the correct answer but I had more diagrammed than you all. Would it be incorrect to diagram the last phrase about many of the PCM work in the suburbs? PCM - some - WS Also, would it be correct to diagram that if in the construction industry you have significant interests in the committee's decisions? Though such a S&N statement is not directly stated I feel it can me logically inferred given the structure of the first sentence - or is that incorrect?

@Meredith,

That's fine that you diagrammed PCM - some - WS. Also, it's fine to
diagram Construction industry - >significant interest in committee's
decisions. Neither of these conditional statements matters in terms of
arriving at the correct answer choice, but it's o.k. that you
diagrammed them. As long as you diagrammed

1) PCM - some - SFI
2) PCM - >Don't LIS

then you can arrive at the correct answer choice (E), which says,
"Some persons with significant financial interests in the planning
committee's decisions do not live in the suburbs."

SFI - some - Don't LIS

Does this make sense? Let us know if you have any other questions!
