Hello All and Happy New year,
I have seen in many of Assumption and Strengthen CR's one of the premise bieng directly presented as answer choice or the logical opposite for Weaken CR. Do such answer have higher priority than other more probable answers? From my experience so far I think yes...but just wanted to confirm any way...

Thanks

That the premise is presented in an answer choice for Assumption or Strengthen CR questions is possible - and this answer choice should be 100% incorrect. Assumptions are unstated ideas or knowledge that link premises to conclusion(s, sub-conclusion, etc.) The same works with Strengthen/Weaken CR questions. One needs to attack the assumption mainly to strengthen or weaken the argument. Premises are stated ideas, knowledge - these are not assumptions...

I hope this answers your question.

Night Reader is certainly correct. Any assumption must not be stated and on a strengthen question a premise that is simply restated would not strengthen.

However, and I would ask Night Reader and others to help me with this. I have not seen a GMAT question where the answer choice was incorrect because it actually repeats a premise. (On the inference questions it often seems like you are just repeating a premise but in that case it is a correct answer.)

Does anyone have an example of a GMAT question (say assumption or strengthen) where an Answer Choice actually repeats a premise?
