Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)

In fields such as mathematics, complete certainty may come by quite easily, but in most matters complete certainty is difficult to attain, as evidence is usually not entirely conclusive. As a result, critical thinkers must be able to properly assess evidence for reliability and strength.
