In this episode you will learn: - An inference is a conclusion supported by textual evidence, not something directly stated. - To identify inference questions by looking for signal words like 'implies,' 'suggests,' and 'most likely'. - How to avoid the 'Outside Knowledge Trap,' where an answer is factually correct but not supported by the provided passage. - How to recognize and discard 'Overreach' answers that use extreme language like 'always,' 'never,' or 'impossible'. - To use the core mnemonic: If you cannot point directly to evidence in the passage that supports the conclusion, it is the wrong answer.
