II: No, it will be quite inconvenient for the students and it does not ensure 100% safety as the reports can’t be generated instantly. Correct Answer Both arguments are strong

The statement above asks us whether the students should carry their COVID-19 negative test reports before entering the test centre.

Argument I supports the claim and suggests that this will ensure some amount of safety for all the students and invigilators present in the test centre. It is true.
Therefore, argument I is strong.

On the other hand, Argument II dismisses the claim by stating that it will lead to inconvenience for the students before the exam. Moreover, the test results can’t be obtained immediately, therefore, the results would be some days before. And this will not ensure 100% safety as the transmission can again happen between the last date tested and the exam date.
Therefore, argument II is strong.

Hence, Both arguments are strong.
