Drawing Conclusion
Pick what MUST follow from the premises — not what's likely or popular, only what's forced.
01
Must vs might
‘Drawing a conclusion’ on NUET means deductive — the answer must follow with 100% certainty given the premises. Plausible-but-not-forced answers are wrong.
- Trace the chain: each step must use only the given premises.
- If you have to import outside knowledge, the answer isn't forced.
- Beware reversal of conditionals: ‘if A then B’ does NOT mean ‘if B then A’.
02
Worked example
Forced or not?
Premises: All sparrows are birds. Some birds can swim. What follows?
- Cannot conclude that some sparrows swim — ‘some birds can swim’ is consistent with no sparrows swimming.
- Forced conclusion: All sparrows are birds (restating a premise) is the only safe option.
Жауап: Only restating known premises is safe.
