GMAT Club plans to license the use of its name by a highly sophisticated and advanced online GMAT prep course. For a forum, licensing the use of its name for products involves some danger, since if the products disappoint consumers, the forum's reputation suffers, with consequent reductions in users and advertising. However, experts have evaluated the test prep course and found it superior to all other test prep courses advertised in the forum. Therefore, GMAT Club can collect its licensing fee without endangering its other revenues.
The argument above assumes which of the following?
A. No other test prep course is superior to that which will carry the GMAT Club name.
B. GMAT Club will not license the use of its name for any products other than the prep course.
C. Makers of test prep courses will not find GMAT Club a less attractive advertising vehicle because the Forum's name is associated with a competing product.
D. Consumers who are not regular users of the GMAT Club forum will be attracted to the prep course by the GMAT Club name
E. GMAT Club is one of the most prestigious GMAT prep forums

nice question.. I got it correct 
argument states that GC plans to license the use of its name by a highly sophisticated and advanced online GMAT prep course : only one company to which GC is planning to partner with..
IC of argument : if the products disappoint consumers, the forum's reputation suffers, with consequent reductions in users and advertising ... negative impact of partnership which GC can suffer...
but the company experts say that they have evaluated the test prep course and found it superior to all other test prep courses advertised in the forum...
conclusion based on IC : Therefore, GMAT Club can collect its licensing fee without endangering its other revenues.
assumption based CR , need to weaken the conclusion by negating the options
A. No other test prep course is superior to that which will carry the GMAT Club name.
All other test prep course is superior to that which will carry the GMAT Club name ; this does not weaken the conclusion and IC
B. GMAT Club will not license the use of its name for any products other than the prep course.
GMAT Club will license the use of its name for any products other than the prep course. : does not weaken the conclusion and IC
C. Makers of test prep courses will not find GMAT Club a less attractive advertising vehicle because the Forum's name is associated with a competing product.
Makers of test prep courses will find GMAT Club a less attractive advertising vehicle because the Forum's name is associated with a competing product.
this does not make the conclusion weak as it is a point which is making the assumption of experts weak from their point of view not from GC point of view..
D. Consumers who are not regular users of the GMAT Club forum will be attracted to the prep course by the GMAT Club name
Consumers who are regular users of the GMAT Club forum will be attracted to the prep course by the GMAT Club name
this strengthens the conclusion
E. GMAT Club is one of the most prestigious GMAT prep forums
GMAT Club is not one of the most prestigious GMAT prep forums
this statement breaks both IC and conclusion and strongly weakens the conclusion..
OPTION E is correct...
