48 free practice questions

Inference questions give you a set of statements and ask what must be true based on those statements alone. The credited answer is a deduction, not an assumption.

Strategy for Inference / Must Be True questions

  1. Combine conditional statements — if A → B and B → C, then A → C.
  2. Reject answers that could be true but aren't required — the standard is 'must.'
  3. Beware of quantifier shifts: 'some' and 'most' do not upgrade to 'all.'
