I took the test on 6 Aug in Shanghai. I am not quite satisfied with the result.......really frustrated....however I will fight again in October..wish me good luck.
I found one CR I met in the test is from LSAT, as follow:
The usefulness of lie detectors cannot be overestimated. Althought there is no employee screening procedure that is 100 percent accurate, the lie detector is a valuable tool for employers and employees alike. The lie detector's usefulness is amply demonstrated in a recent survey conducted by a prestigious university. In the survey, those employees of a large company who were applying for a newly created position whithin the company were asked if they had ever worked on Project X. More than one-third of the applicants studied lied and said they had worked on the project - a project taht never existed.
Which one of the following best identifies a flaw in the author's argument about the usefulness of lie detectors?
(A) The arguement depends on the assumption that whatever is good for the employee.
(B) Since lie detectors are known to be less than 100 percent accurate, the test will tend to help only those with something to hide.
(C) By referring to a prestigious university, the author is appealing to authority rather than to evidence.
(D) The study shows only that certain individuals will lie not that the lie detector can detect them.
(E) The author fails to address the issue that the use of lie detectors may fail to prevent embezzlement.
But after reflection, i think it's somewhat easier than GMAT level, answer is obvious D作者: primefang 时间: 2002-8-14 13:38

why not C??? Survey in a prestigious university does not mean that the result must be true. Moreover, the arguer does not mention how many people participate in the survey..so it is an insufficient survey result which could not support the conclusion.
