Summary
The content provides an in-depth analysis of how to approach sufficient assumption questions on the GRE, focusing on identifying the necessary evidence to make a conclusion incontrovertibly true.
  • Sufficient assumption questions require adding a piece of evidence to the given information to prove the conclusion beyond doubt.
  • The first step involves breaking down the argument to distinguish the conclusion from the evidence.
  • Identifying the gap between the conclusion and the evidence is crucial for finding the right answer.
  • The correct answer closes the loophole between the annual need for different vaccines and the possibility of recurring virus strains.
  • Other options are dismissed based on their irrelevance or inability to address the specific gap identified in the argument.
