Statement and Conclusion / Assumptions Logical Reasoning

Learn core concepts, essential formulas, and attempt practice questions designed on the latest TCS NQT testing patterns.

Key Concepts & Formulas

  • 1Conclusions must be 100% logically derived from the statement without external assumptions.
  • 2Assumptions are unstated premises taken for granted before making the statement.

TCS NQT Style Practice Questions

Practice Question 1

Statement: Regular exercise leads to good health. Conclusion: (I) People who do not exercise are sick. (II) Exercise is necessary for fitness.

A) Only II follows
B) Only I follows
C) Both follow
D) Neither follows

Correct Answer: D) Neither follows

Step-by-step Solution: The statement says exercise leads to good health, not that lack of it guarantees sickness (I doesn't follow). It also doesn't state it is the ONLY necessary way to stay fit (II doesn't follow).

Practice Question 2

Statement: Please read this manual before installing the software. Assumption: (I) People can read. (II) People will read the manual.

A) Both I and II are implicit
B) Only I is implicit
C) Only II is implicit
D) Neither is implicit

Correct Answer: A) Both I and II are implicit

Step-by-step Solution: If we write a warning manual, we assume the user can read (I) and that they will read it (II). Thus, both assumptions are implicit.
