Statement: A very large number of aspiring students applied for admission to the professional courses run by the renowned college in town.\nAssumptions:\nI. All applicants may be able to get admission to the college.\nII. The admission process adopted by the renowned college may be fair to all applicants.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Neither Assumption I nor II is implicit

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
The statement reports high application volume to a popular college. We must avoid reading in further claims about acceptance rates or procedural fairness unless they are necessary to the statement’s sense.


Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Observation only: many applicants.
  • No claim about seats, selection rates, or process.


Concept / Approach:
Neither universal admission (I) nor process fairness (II) is required for the observation. Many applications can occur even with limited seats or even if some perceive unfairness; reputation and outcomes can drive demand regardless.


Step-by-Step Solution:
1) If I is false (not all can be admitted), the statement still stands.2) If II is false (process may be unfair), applications can still be large due to prestige, placement records, or necessity.


Verification / Alternative check:
Competitive programs routinely attract volumes far exceeding capacity; fairness is orthogonal to volume in the short term.


Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They attribute extra meaning to a simple quantitative observation.


Final Answer:
Neither Assumption I nor II is implicit.
