I came across a post by Stacey outlining several RC answer traps like "plausible in real-world", "true but not right" etc., but I am unable to search and locate that post now. Can someone with better searching skills pull it out for me :) ?

That link will be very helpful.

Thanks

I have compiled a similar list. I have got most of it from a LSAT forum, others are from Gmat and Gre forums..but the basic fundamentals of RC are same for the tests.
(6) Common Wrong Answer Types:

1. Outside the Scope are answer choices that discuss ideas that are not addressed in the passage or information never discussed in the passage.
2. Contradiction choice is the opposite of what the author says in the passage or is the opposite of what the author believes.
3. Irrelevant to Question are ideas in the passage but do not respond to the question being asked.
4. Distorts, the answer choice misrepresents information in the passage either by exaggerating the information or mixing up the information.
5. Too Narrow, the answer choice discusses only part of the passage the question is concerned with.
6. Too Broad, the answer choice discusses the part of the passage in terms that are too general or vague.

Here you go - it's towards the bottom. The first post I make on this one is also very important (about the questions to ask yourself as you study problems).
