Reasoning, General Intelligence (Tier 1)

Just like how we did the Maths- first well divide [Reasoning] into subtopics

Topic

Subtopics

Series

1.

Analogy (both word based and numerical)

Coding

Arrangement

2.

Odd pair (both word based and numerical)

3.

English Dictionary based word arrangements, missing letters

4.

Box containing some number, youve to find missing number.

5.

Ranking, missing characters etc.

1.

Typical coding decoding (PEAR written as GFDN then REAP is written as..)

2.

Symbols (circle is greater than, square is less than..)

3.

Maths operations (L=x, M=+, then value of 16L12M13 is..)

1.

Sitting arrangement (line, table and circular)

2.

Blood relations (mom-dad-father in law)

3.

Building, car, colour, occupations of persons.

4.

Schedules (lecture on Monday..etc.)

5.

Direction based (Mohan moves three kms northhow far he is from home)

Logic

Misc.

Image based (non-verbal)

2.

Syllogism (2 statements and 3 statements): shortcut techniques explained here: click ME

and coffee..)

3.

Assumption, interference, conclusion etc.

1.

Clock, calendar

2.
