You have to assume X, Y, and Z already happened. If you can't assume that, then NONE of the questions (even the ones where X, Y, and Z are completely normal) make any sense.

I'm not tracking with your last statement, Mike. If X, Y, and Z are completely normal situations provided in a test question, there's no reason to make any assumptions. It's when X, Y, and Z don't make sense that you have to decide whether or not these were mere oversights by the people writing the questions, or they were intentionally thrown in there to see if the test-takers are paying attention.

I have found in past tests that I've taken that the latter is usually the case.
