  • (A) If only conclusion I follows
  • (B) If only conclusion II follows
  • (C) If either I or II follows
  • (D) If neither I nor II follows and
  • (E) If both I and II follow.
Q1:

Statements: From the next academic year, students will have the option of dropping Mathematics and Science for their school leaving certificate examination. Conclusions:
  1. Students who are weak in Science and Mathematics will be admitted.
  2. Earlier students did not have the choice of continuing their education without taking these subjects.

A Only conclusion I follows

B Only conclusion II follows

C Either I or II follows

D Neither I nor II follows

E Both I and II follow

ANS:E - Both I and II follow

Explanation: Since the new system gives the students the option of dropping Science and Mathematics, so students weak in these subjects can also be admitted. So, I follows. Also, it is mentioned that the new system will come into effect from the next academic year. This means that it did not exist previously. So, II also follows.
