Section 2: Reasoning & General Intelligence
- Critical Thinking: Decision making (taking into cognizance various rules & conditions and take decisions based upon those roles & conditions) Problem solving (to analyze the given information and condense all the information in a suitable form and answer the questions asked)
- Verbal-logical reasoning: Deriving conclusions from logical premises or assess the validity of arguments based on the statement of the facts.
- Data sufficiency: Judge whether the information given is sufficient to answer the question or whether additional information is required.
- Numerical Reasoning: Venn Diagram (identify the class-sub class relationship within a given group of items and illustrate it diagrammatically) Mathematical Equalities.
- Data Interpretation: To be able to use the information given in graphs and charts to answer questions
- Spatial Reasoning: Figure analogy (Choosing a figure from the alternatives that match with the relationship specified by the given figural pair) figure matching/classification (notice a common quality in figures to be able to match them or find the odd one out) Figure Series (to discover pattern information of figures in a sequence to be able to complete the series/identify the missing figures.
