On the LSAT, what is the difference between the terms "generalization" and "claim."
I have encountered a number of problems, mainly Method of Reasoning questions, that will have answer choices differ with these two terms. For the most part, I will choose the correct answer based on the information included with the terms and by process of elimination, but I would like to have the confidence knowing what exactly is the difference between the two terms on the test.
Is it that a claim is a matter of fact, and a generalization is a broad...matter of fact?
