I just wanted to post this. I was struggling with assumption questions and would get so many wrong and now I finally figured them out. I am very excited.

Girl you can't just say this and not tell us how😭
@ArianazH Hi sorry lol! So sufficient and necessary will be looked differently to find the answers. For sufficient questions you are trying to find what you can add to the premise to make the given conclusion happen. For example 2+? = 5. That question mark will be your assumption. You want to find what links everything together. The answer choice/ assumption should capture what the author/ conclusion is saying. Now with necessary questions, it's more of 2+3 = what? You are trying to find what is required to make the conclusion happen. What helps here is negating the answer choices and negate them. Does the conclusion fall apart if the answer choice is negated? Then that is required for it to be true. Also if you don't know the negation test is making whatever flipped for example if a then b. Negating it means if not b then not a. Figuring out the conclusion and the premises is a very very very big part in these questions. I struggled because I was not doing that at first
How did you figure it out? What changed?
