From my understanding, you're never supposed to question the truth of the premises, only the truth of the conclusion. You can question, however, the gaps between the premises.
@Dean_Dyrmishi When you see Except, Until, and Without you can treat them as if you saw unless
@Edith yes, the original and contrapositive statements are the only valid inferences
@LilyAsgari I am confused, isn’t contrapositive the exact same as the original statement so why would it be wrong
@TBlack05 I agree with biglaw4life. Since this is an SA question, you want to look for an answer choice that 100% makes it so the conclusion follows. Think about it in a conditional logic way: SA--> conclusion-->NA. The Sufficient assumption 100% of the time leads to the conclusion, and the Necessary assumption is what relies on the conclusion. Hence why SA answer choices are okay to be stronger than NA.
Huh?
