I generally consider this question type to be one of the more difficult ones. It is also important to understand the difference between MSS questions and MBT questions. MSS answers ostensibly could be false but are heavily implied/supported by the stimulus while MBT answers MUST BE TRUE. In MSS questions, it is incredibly important to keep in mind the scope of the argument. It is very easy for the test makers to pray upon assumptions you might be making while reading the stimulus. This is why it is important to take the stimulus at face value. For example: generally answer choices that say "X is the most important factor for Y" are going to be WRONG. However, it is easy to make that mistake because you might be thinking "well the stimulus talked about X being a factor in Y, and X is the only factor they mentioned, so X must be the most important factor for Y. This is an error!
