Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=8627)
The correct answer choice is (E)
Another List question, this time a Local question with the stipulation that W is selected. Do not make the mistake of thinking that because W is reduced that G and S are both reduced! This is a mistaken reversal of the rule. Answer choice (A) is incorrect since two of L, M, and R must be reduced and only M is reduced. Answer choice (B) is incorrect since both N and R are reduced, or alternately, because all three of L, M, and R are reduced. Answer choice (C) is incorrect because both P and L are reduced. Answer choice (D) is incorrect since both N and S are reduced. Consequently, answer choice (E) is correct, and we now know that the hypothetical W-M-P-R-S is a valid solution to the game.
