In making decisions about important questions, it is desirable to be able to distinguish between "strong" arguments and "weak" arguments. "Strong" arguments must be both important and directly related to the question. "Weak" arguments may not be directly related to the question and may be of minor importance or may be related to the trivial aspects of the question.
Each question below is followed by three arguments numbered I, II and III. You have to decide which of the argument(s) is/are "strong". I.
Should there be a common syllabus for all subjects in graduate courses in all the universities across the country ?
Arguments :
I. Yes, this is the only way to spring in uniformity in the education system in the country.
II. Yes, it will help standardise the quality of graduation certificates being given by different universities in the country.
III. No, each university should have the autonomy to decide its syllabus based on the specific requirement of the university.
Argument I became weak because of the word only used, but II and III are strong as both reflect different and strong opinions about common syllabus for all subjects in graduate courses in all the universities.
Thus, only II and III are strong.
