Getting defeated is just a temporary notion, giving it up is what makes it permanent.

You may be focusing on too large a portion of the argument and PowerScore often causes people to worry a little too much about definitions and terminology. Here are a few of things for you to read that might help out. Be sure to check out the first two links here if nothing else.

Remember on the GMAT CR, keep it simple.

December 2010 with 13 original questions that I wrote and links to another 12 postings.
