=====================
Question:
In an effort to curb drug abuse, the government has imposed strict laws to prosecute the dealers. However, such an initiative is unlikely to be effective. Prosecuting dealers will lead to a shortage of drugs. At the same time, because no efforts are being taken to curb demand, drugs will be sold at a premium, attracting more people to the very remunerative job of drug dealing. Therefore, to effectively reduce drug abuse, the government will have to prosecute the drug users and not dealers.
Which of the following is the most relevant information in evaluating the credibility of the argument?
Options:
A. Whether efforts have been successfully taken in any other country to regulate drug users.
B. Whether the payoff from selling drugs outweighs the severity of the punishment.
C. Whether drugs will continue to be sold at a premium when there are dealers in the market again.
D. Whether the majority of the users will be willing to pay a premium to continue to use the drugs.
E. Whether the government will be able to keep track of new dealers as and when they enter the market.

With practice and correct theoretical foundation. :) When you learn the structured approach to each CR question type, you will find that there is a formulaic, sort of checklist approach, that you can take for each question type. You will be able to quickly avoid the traps in the incorrect options. Thinking about the question the right way is the key to solving these questions faster. Call +91 95000 48484 or ping us on WhatsApp. We can arrange for you to attend a CR lesson as a demo with our current batches and you will better understand the approach to these questions.
It this gmat level ??

Yes absolutely! Most of these questions are representative of medium or medium-high level questions in the GMAT.
