command of evidence (quantitative)
As I was going through those questions, I just realized that you have to do many things to solve them
1- you need to read the whole thing ( like just read the non-essential stuff real quick until you get to the claim or conclusion just to get an overview of what they're talking about)
2- you need to figure out what conditions they gave you: like if you need to compare two categories over the whole period that presented in the graph or if you need to compare all the categories togther or...... etc
3- you have to know how each graph works [ grouped bar charts : tables : bars : lines ] cuz I think everyone of them has its own features. For instance, in grouped bar charts they might ask you how close the the two bars from each other and stuff, which I haven't seen in the other graphs
The hardest thing I found is to find which category you need to say or compare to support or weaken the student's claim/conclusion.. so if you got some information how to spot them so quick just share it with us

the thing that clicked for me on these is the right answer has to do two jobs at once, be true from the graph and actually back up the specific claim. the classic trap is an option thats a correct reading of the data but doesnt support what the sentence is claiming. so id lock in what the claim needs first, then go find the number that proves it.
