Logical Reasoning Strategy Guide PT37, S4, Q3

Concerning the explanation of answer choice (C), may I ask if by "each student" here, the author means each student in the experimental group or "all" students beyond what have been mentioned in the stimulus? If it's the former, I think "each student" is not wrong here, right?

"Each student" refers to all of the students in both classes, but does not imply anything about a student not mentioned in the stimulus.

The question is asking for what is supported by the statements in the stimulus, and answer choice (C) simply goes too far. We have no clue whether each of the students would like most paintings in any prestigious museum. In fact the statements never ask for whether the students "liked" the paintings, just which one they thought was better.

Hope that helps!
