3 main categories of BMAT questions:

Students struggle with identifying conclusions of questions because they confuse a premise for a conclusion!!!

A Conclusion - a summary of arguments.

A Premise - a statement from which another statement can be inferred or followed as a conclusion.

Example1:

My mom, being a woman, is clever as all women are clever.

Premise1: My mom is a woman + Premise2: Women are clever = Conclusion: My mom is clever.

Example2:

My mom is clever because all doctors are clever.

Premise1: Doctors are clever + Assumption: My mom is a doctor = Conclusion: My mom is clever. Flaw: What if the mother was not actually a doctor?
