I cannot pick the right answer
I am ALWAYS left with a 50/50 answer and I always pick the wrong answer, EVERY time.... I am able to get the right answer but I pick the wrong one over it every single time. How can I solve this problem?

Hi, for main point questions it's critical to identify the conclusion of the argument before you even look at the answer choices. The right answer will always restate the conclusion. You can find the conclusion by finding the thing that the rest of the argument supports, the thing that the author is trying to prove. One test I like to use is to say "statement one, therefore statement 2" when trying to figure out what supports what. If we can say that X supports y, then y is a conclusion, and if y doesn't support anything else in turn, it's the main conclusion of the argument.
