Statement & Argument — Should there be an entrance test for admission to graduation in Delhi University? Arguments: I. Yes; an entrance test filters candidates so meritorious students gain admission. II. No; most applicants will not get admission.

Introduction / Context:
Admission mechanisms are justified if they fairly allocate scarce seats by merit or suitable criteria. Strong arguments should link the mechanism to purpose, not to inevitable scarcity outcomes.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Seats are limited; some selection mechanism is required.
• Merit screening is a standard objective for competitive universities.

Concept / Approach:
Argument I ties an entrance test to achieving merit-based selection (relevance). Argument II merely laments that many will be rejected—this is a consequence of limited seats, not a reason against a fair filter.

Step-by-Step Solution:
I: Mechanism-objective alignment—strong.II: Non-sequitur; rejection occurs with or without an entrance test. Weak.

Final Answer:
Only Argument I is strong.
