Sufficient... The way I look at it is basically like...Which of these answers, if chosen, makes the statement/argument look better.

Then with necessary... Which one does this argument NEED in order to make sense.

Make sure you're not mixing up the two.. They can word it like assholes sometimes.. Just remember..Sufficient answers make the argument look BETTER

with sufficient assumptions you will usually bridge the logical gap between premises and conclusion. if a term is mentioned for the first time in the conclusion then the CR will almost always find some way of linking it to the evidence.
