Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=15887)
The correct answer choice is (A)
If J is earlier than G, then K must be the first, because either K or G must be first. And, since G must precede the HF rotating block, J must perform second, and G—third. We can use a linear setup to represent the fixed placement of these variables:
The only variables whose position is relatively unknown are H and F. Because we are solving a Could Be True question, we should expect that the correct answer choice will exploit this uncertainty—a prephrase that immediately eliminates all answer choices except for answer choices (A) and (C).
Answer choice (A): This is the correct answer choice, as F could perform either fourth or fifth.
Answer choice (B) cannot be true, because G must perform third, after K and J.
Answer choice (C) cannot be true, because H must perform either fourth or fifth.
Answer choice (D) cannot be true, because J must perform second.
Answer choice (E) cannot be true, because K must perform first.
