LSAT Practice Test 2026 – 400 Free Practice Questions to Pass the Exam

The correct answer, A, helps to reconcile the safety experts' belief with the apparently contrary evidence described above by suggesting that the safety experts may have overlooked certain data. This explanation aligns with the possibility that the experts did not have access to or consider all relevant information, which could explain why their belief seems contrary to the evidence presented. By acknowledging this potential gap in their analysis, it becomes more plausible that the experts' belief could still be valid despite the conflicting evidence.

Options B, C, and D do not directly address the discrepancy between the safety experts' belief and the apparent evidence presented. Option B posits that the evidence itself was fabricated or misconstrued, which does not address how the experts' belief could still be valid. Option C mentions different training backgrounds among some of the experts, which is also unrelated to reconciling their belief with the evidence. Option D discusses additional safety measures implemented after the data were collected, which does not explain how the experts' initial belief could be reconciled with the existing evidence.
