logically completes question stem

kenglish55309

Could someone please help me to find where in the course I can find how to deal with "logically complete question stem". I am working on PT 59 S2 Q24 and I think I misinterpreted what was required. Are these questions MBT or MC?

I categorize them as "miscellaneous".

E.g. All Jedi use the force and Luke is a Jedi therefore _____
There, that's an MSS question since it's asking for a conclusion.

Alternatively, e.g., Since Luke is a Jedi, Luke uses the force because _____
There, you're being asked for a premise.

Usually, these won't be MC/MP questions because those questions only ask you to paraphrase what was already stated in the passage and by definition, what's blank isn't in the passage.

Prep Test 59 S2 Q24 about credit cards is asking for a conclusion, so it's considered a MSS question. You have to push the first and second sentence together.

Had I known that it was a MSS question (which is my most dreaded question type) I would have had a better chance of excluding E. Thanks
