Direction: In making decisions about important questions, it is desirable to be able to distinguish between ''Strong'' arguments and ''Weak'' arguments insofar as they relate to the question. ''Strong'' arguments are those which are both important and directly related to the question. ''Weak'' arguments are those which are of minor importance and also may not be directly related to the question or may be related to a trivial aspect of the question.

  1. Statement:
    should school invite IIT students to give practical tips on science subjects?
    Arguments:
    I. Yes, IIT students can be a boon to the careers of science students by giving them proper guidance that they certainly require at the stage of their schooling.
    II. No. IIT students have more vital responsibilities to carry out for which they have been prepared.
    1. if only argument I is strong
    2. if only argument II is strong
    3. if either I or II is strong
    4. if neither I nor II is strong
    5. if both I and II are strong
Correct Option: A

I is strong. A right tip at the right time can reap huge dividends. II is not strong. One does not assume that going to school students will become their primary role.
