#feedback There should definitely be more of these labeling skill builders because I am the type to forget which stems mean what. These are very helpful.
Doing this exercise made me realize the sufficient assumption is very conclusion based whereas the necessary is in general something the argument needs regardless of whether the conclusion holds true or not
My trick: its always going to be sufficient, UNLESS it contains some version of 'require(d)(s), Depend(s)(ed), or Relies/rely/relied. Think of these as trump cards, that immediately change it to necessity.

55/55 in not even 3-4 minutes lets gooo
fiddy five out of fiddy five
55/55. I can distinguish the questions but have trouble getting the right answer for the actual SA and NA questions. Anyone else?
54/55 my brain went on autopilot for one of em
55/55 goated
36/55 in under 7 min
My tutor shared this strategy for me for figuring our SA vs NA question stems which helped me a lot with this exercise:
If the question stem has "IF" in is, it is a SA
If the question stem does not have "IF" in it, it is a NA
No I just need to understand the difference between pseudo-sufficient assumption and sufficient assumption
conclusion = sufficient, argument = necessary
There is no explanation video at the bottom. Whoops!
This was a great exercise.
I got 55/55 and this is the strategy I used.
if the question is looking for a PATH to the answer, its Sufficient.
if the question is looking for a OPEN GATE, its necessary
thinking about it this way really helped
this helped alot

#feedback I don't see an explanation video at the bottom of this lesson.
Really helpful sections. I think I'm going to start writing down the question stems for every question type and make a guide like this.
This is really helpful. Love this section
#feedback Loved this a lot
Great reinforcement activity. I started reading them out loud and the repetition really helped drive home the distinctions.
#feedback I found this really helpful and I think other students did as well. Would love to see more of this.
