Summary
The essence of tackling inference questions on the LSAT involves identifying answer choices that can be substantiated by information directly stated in the passage, even if the answer itself is not explicitly mentioned.
- Inference questions require proving an answer choice with information provided in the passage.
- The correct answer is often not directly stated but is supported by the passage's content.
- A systematic process of elimination is essential in identifying the correct answer.
- The passage's discussion can validate the correct answer choice, as demonstrated with Dove's works being distinctly classified as poetry or fiction.
- Incorrect answers often contradict the passage's information or extend beyond its scope.
