this is the best example for those who have gone through powerscore cr Scope section.

If an argument discusses of a new technique, than any answer that explains federal and monetary policy is out of scope whereas the correct answer will be applicable to surgery and medicine.

Definitely B is out of scope.

Pls correct if i am wrong and raise question if you have any on the below explanation.

First of all key points in the argument.
1. Many people discontinue the course after 3 days
Assumption:- May be they get cured
2. Re Infection chances in those individuals.
Assumption:- To avoid re infection take the complete course. In nutshell dont discontinue.
3. New drug is a 3 day course, it provides cure in 3 days. Hence Patients using it will have lesser chance of re infection.
Assumption:- Patients will adhere to their 3 days habit and complete the course.
Completion of course is important for re infection not to occur.

Now look at answer choice.
B and E are contenders thats for sure....B is ruled out as discussed in the preceding post.

E is the best option and also E affirms that Older treatment of 7 day course gives remedy from the disease in 3 days. Thereby strengthening the fact that it is non adherence to the course that it causes the re infection. Hence 3 day course will not cause re infection as people are used to 3 day pattern and it also cures the disease. Hence the people sticking to course of 3 day will prevent the reinfection
