I’m also reading it in the circle 😂 It feels like the same answer but backwards. Let me get to the bottom of it. No, you will not receive this level and type of a question on the GMAT. This is LSAT question which is harder...
It’s good practice. It’s not like the question is bad it’s just harder And requires very subtle nuance
I think i got it! It is a very subtle difference. I will put in in the topic as well.
This took only 10 mins but once you know the trap, you will be able to reproduce it and move faster through it.
Vague laws set vague limits on people’s freedom, which makes it impossible for them to know for certain whether their actions are legal. Thus, under vague laws people cannot feel secure. The conclusion follows logically if which one of the following is assumed?
A. People can feel secure only if they know for certain whether their actions are legal.
B. If people do not know for certain whether their actions are legal, then they might not feel secure.
C. If people know for certain whether their actions are legal, they can feel secure.
D. People can feel secure if they are governed by laws that are not vague.
E. Only people who feel secure can know for certain whether their actions are legal.
The difference between C and A is that C is not exclusive.
A tells us that people only feel secure if they know that their actions are legal
C tells us that people will feel secure if they know that their actions are legal, but that does not mean that’s the only way to feel secure, so people could also feel secure if they locked their door at night or had a lot of money in the bank.
So the difference is that A is saying this is the ONLY way while C says - this is one way of many.
