Sufficient question vs must be true question

While answering sufficient and necessary questions, tutors are creating diagrams such as A-B. However while answering must be true questions, tutors do not creating such diagrams. Which situations should I prepare for such diagrams?

Hi guys,

It really depends on a number of factors. One of the most important ones in my opinion is the presence of certain key words that you should be on the look for - words like "if," "when," "only," and "unless" tend to signify the need for diagramming, as well as quantifiers such as "some," "all," "many," and "none." Also, if a stimulus is more complicated, it's generally more helpful to diagram, or at least to summarize it's points to help you stay on top of everything it's throwing at you. If you see key phrases being repeated in between different sentences with those key indicators, it's probably wise to diagram. Hope this helps!
