SSC GD Constable Statement & Conclusions

Analyze the statement. We know all roses belong to the flower category, and some flowers have the red property.

Check Conclusion I. The statement tells us all roses are flowers, and some flowers are red. But it doesn't tell us which flowers are red. The red flowers could be roses or other flowers. We cannot conclude all roses are red. This is INVALID.

Check Conclusion II. Since the statement clearly says 'All roses are flowers', it automatically means some roses are also flowers. This is VALID. Answer: Only conclusion II follows. Second Shortcut: For 'Some' statements, remember that 'some' means 'at least one but not necessarily all'. If statement says 'Some dogs bark', it means at least one dog barks, but other dogs might not bark. Common Mistake: Students often apply real-world knowledge instead of sticking to the given statement. For example, if the statement is 'All birds can fly' and conclusion is 'Penguins can fly', students know penguins cannot fly in reality. But based purely on the statement logic, if penguins are birds and all birds can fly, then penguins can fly according to the given information. Always work within the statement's framework, not real-world facts.
