Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=4676)
The correct answer choice is (A)
The question stem creates an LT block, and such a block can occur only under Template #2. In that template, L dives first, T dives second, and O dives last. The remaining three divers—W, P, and Z—can dive in any order in the third, fourth, and fifth positions:
As shown in the diagram, O must dive last, and thus answer choice (A) cannot be true and is thus correct.
Note that, not surprisingly, each of the four incorrect answers addresses W, P, or Z, the three variables with uncertainty in this situation.
