either/or vs or
I know that the word or is referring to an inclusive or, for the lsats. But when a question says either a or b, i naturally read it as an exclusive or. Is this right?

Re: either/or vs or
its always an inclusive or unless they specifically say "but not both". So if you see "either or" it means "a or b or both"kiyoku wrote:I know that the word or is referring to an inclusive or, for the lsats.
