Syllogism and assumption questions — a quick method
Solve syllogisms with Venn diagrams and identify hidden assumptions in arguments — two common reasoning types in law entrances.
Syllogisms
Draw the smallest possible Venn diagram that satisfies every statement. A conclusion follows only if it is true in every valid diagram.
Assumptions
An assumption is an unstated premise the argument needs. Test by negating the option — if the argument collapses, it is an assumption.
Practice
Ten questions a day for two weeks usually makes both types routine.
