One of the most important skills in
reading Reasoning passages critically, is to focus on the scope
of the argument - how much of a particular topic it covers.
Many wrong answer choices touch upon
issues related to the topic of the argument but not within
the scope of the argument. These choices are "outside the scope". And
something that is outside the scope of an argument has no effect on
the argument.
Let's take a look at a question you've seen before
to better understand this concept.
