Evaluation Policy - CR

There needs to be a significant change in the evaluation policy of many post graduation colleges
when recruiting from graduation colleges. Most post-grad colleges look at academic performance,
and as a result many deserving candidates are not even evaluated by these colleges. Aptitude tests,
on the other hand, are better indicators of future academic performance, and deserve a look in.
Which of the following is an assumption of the passage ?

1. Aptitude tests have proven themselves as cost-effective tools to weed out poor performers.
2. Academic standards in graduation colleges is not upto mark.
3. Colleges currently are not using correct parameters for evaluation.
4. Aptitude tests are not yet popular amongst post-grad colleges as a tool for prospective student assessment


In my opnion answer should be option 4 but OA is 2
I doubt the answer First of all Premise doesn't talk about academic standards but academic performance and even if it were talking of academic standards ,then premise is solely concerned with academic performance(standard) of the student and not of the graduation colleges.There may be a case when academic standards are good but the performance of the students is far below .so i think assumption 2 is vague .Please can anyone explain???
