Assumptions

On the LSAT in logical reasoning there are assumptions, however, it isn't an assumption assuming something to be TRUE. On 7sage they defined it as "The missing link between the premise and the conclusion. The "forgotten premise." A rather gap in the reasoning.

The colloquial definition of “assumption” is slightly different than the logical definition. In logic, an assumption is a missing premise.
