what is an assumption for the argument
if I do x, I will have y
for example
If I learn gmat, I will get higher score
or
if I take part in gmatcluc, I will learn gmat better.
do you have any general assummption for above kind of argument. I ask this question because I see that this type of argument is popular on og books.
pls, help. Thank you

Two assumptions I can come up with are:
1. Doing X helps in achieving Y. (Taking Part in GMAT Club helps to learn GMAT better)
2. There is no other alternate way u can achieve Y

Hi thangvietnam,
These are logical connections and the type of logic that you wrote is called and implication logic.
Let me illustrate:
IF x occurs -> then Y occurs
If this is given as a statement and we need to conclude on something, what do we have to look out for.
Case 1: Y occurs. We cannot say for sure that X occurs. So Y -> X is untrue
Case 2: X occurs. We cannot say that Y has also occurred.
Case 3: X does not occur. We cannot say if Y occurred or not. Y may or may not occur.
Case 4: Y does not occur. In that case we can be sure that X has not occurred. Hence (NOT)Y - > (NOT)X
Just remember this:
If X-> Y, then (NOT)Y - > (NOT)X
So, in CR answer choices, if you encounter certain cause-effect relationships, you can use this relation.
Regards,
Shouvik.
