Statement and Argument
Statement: Should admission to the professional degrees in Pakistan be given only on merit without any concession to any particular group of students?
Arguments:
(I) Yes. This will improve the quality of the professional institutes and degrees as they will be able to complete the degree successfully.
(II) No. This will keep a large number of socially and economically backward students out of the reach of professional institutes and degrees.
- A
If argument I is strong
- B
If only argument II is strong
- C
If both I and II are strong.
- D
If neither I nor II is strong
According to the statement I only all the hardworking students will be able to avail the admission in the professional degree hence there will be almost 100% course completion and success rate. But statement II also has a strong argument i.e. that if no concessions are made and admissions are solely on the base of merit then the socially and economically backward students won't be able to enroll in these professional degrees. So option C is correct.
Argument II is also very strong.
Argument I is also strong.
