Inference Qs strategy?

sachindia wrote:Hi Experts,
Have a doubt.

Is it true that on an inference Qs, right answer choice will never have extreme words like ALL,NEVER , ALWAYS, etc?

No.

It is true that an inference question can have "never," "always," etc., only if the prompt has similar language. However, some prompts do contain always and nevers, and you can deduce an always from another always or never.

Thanks a lot..
So unless the premise has extreme words, answer must not have extreme words.
Hope I got it right.

Generally, yes. I don't want to commit to an absolute here--I'm sure that somewhere, there is some "always" that can be deduced from a collection of "somes" and "mights." But this rule of thumb will get you the correct answer far more often than it will lead you astray.

Thanks again, Eli. This helps.

Could you please throw light on inference Qs that you find in RC.

Are the strategies for RC inference same as those for CR Inference?

RC Inference is similar, in that the correct answer must always be true, and extreme answers are often wrong. However, RC Inference questions are often predictible, whereas for most CR Inference questions you will need to check each answer choice until you find a good one. Also, RC inference questions are much more likely to hinge on distinguishing conflicting views held by different individuals or groups.
