Analogy & Classification — Preparation
This question tests your understanding of Analogy & Classification, a key topic in the Logical Reasoning section. The detailed solution above uses a step-by-step approach to show the reasoning, and where available, a shortcut that helps you solve similar questions in under 90 seconds during the actual exam.
Analogy questions give a pair of related words, numbers or letters and ask you to find another pair with the same relationship, such as Doctor : Hospital :: Teacher : School. Classification (odd one out) questions give a group of items where all but one share a property, and ask you to find the one that doesn't belong. Common relationships include worker and workplace, tool and use, product and raw material, animal and young one, country and capital, and synonyms or antonyms. For number and letter analogies, look for operations such as squaring, cubing or fixed letter shifts. In classification, find the property shared by most options first, then pick the item that breaks it. Practise the analogy and classification questions below, each with a step-by-step solution explaining the relationship.
