Example wrong choices
20728_star_stable_stall · REAL_PROPERTY · Choice AYes, because Lydia’s ownership interest in the market hall was superior to Timothy’s and Peter’s leasehold interests.
Why it's attractive
The student reaches for the simple idea that the property owner has the stronger interest. The breaker is that ownership hierarchy does not answer whether Lydia's later conduct waived termination.
Why it's wrong
The choice answers a property-hierarchy question rather than the waiver-by-conduct question.
Spot it next time
Ask whether the answer explains the rent acceptance and no-protest facts.
20728_star_stable_stall · REAL_PROPERTY · Choice CYes, because Lydia objected within a reasonable time.
Why it's attractive
The student treats Lydia's later declaration as an objection. The breaker is that the stem first gives rent acceptance and silence, not a prompt reservation.
Why it's wrong
The choice claims timely objection, but the stem first gives acceptance and silence.
Spot it next time
Mark the earlier deposit-and-silence fact before evaluating the later termination.
20728_star_stable_stall · REAL_PROPERTY · Choice DYes, because the lease prohibited assignments without Lydia’s consent.
Why it's attractive
The student stops at the lease clause because it cleanly prohibits assignment. The breaker is the later conduct fact: Lydia accepted rent from Peter without protest, which triggers the Gold Key.
Why it's wrong
The choice proves the original assignment restriction but does not answer the later waiver fact.
Spot it next time
Say: original clause first, later acceptance second; later fact controls the termination call.
