Direction: In each question below is given a statement followed by two assumptions number I and II.
An assumption is something supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the statement and the following assumption and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement.

  1. Statement:
    Many organizations have switched over to online mode of examinations.
    Assumption:
    I. Candidate from all parts of the country may be well-versed using computers.
    II. Online mode of examinations helps in recruiting more capable personnel.
    1. if only assumption I is implicit.
    2. if only assumption II is implicit.
    3. if either assumption I or II is implicit.
    4. if neither assumption I nor II is implicit.
    5. if both assumption I and II are implicit.
Correct Option: A

Assumption I is implicit because only then the switching over makes sense. But II need not be an assumption. The switching over may have been prompted by economic factors or those of convenience.
