How to show your answer : Each question is followed
by answers which are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Select
the most appropriate answer. Then by using HB Pencil
blacken the oval bearing the correct answer number
against the serial number of the question. For
example, if the answer to Question Number 2 is
answer number 5, it is shown as follows :

2.. 1 2 3 4 2. 1 2 3 4

Please also note that you should not use an H, 2H/HH, 3H
type of pencils. The marks made by such hard pencils will
be too light and will not be read by the computerised
machine. So such hard pencils are NOT TO BE USED.
If you use too soft pencils like 2B/BB, 3B etc., your marks
will be too dark. So when you want to change your answer
by erasing the first one, there may be smudges or dark
marks in place of the erased answer and around. So soft
Pencils are NOT TO BE USED. THEREFORE, USE ONLY
HB PENCILS.

Please note that the oval should be dark enough and
should be filled in as completely as possible. You
need not make special efforts to darken any oval
artistically.
How to change your Answer : If you wish to change
your answer ERASE completely the already darkened
oval by using good quality eraser and then blacken the
new oval bearing your revised answer number.
While changing the answer, erasing the earlier answer
completely is extremely essential. If it is not erased
completely, smudges will be left on the erased oval
as shown below and the question will be read as
having two answers and will be ignored for giving
any credit.

SAMPLE QUESTIONS
A) OBJECTIVE TESTS
Below are given some sample questions for the objective
type tests. The types of questions are only illustrative and
not exhaustive. In actual examination you may find ques-
tions on some or all of these types and also questions on
the types not mentioned here.
TEST I : REASONING & NUMERICAL APTITUDE
This test is to see how well you can think and how fast and
accurate you are in dealing with numbers. It contains ques-
tions of various kinds. Here are some sample questions.
Directions : In each of the following questions, there is a
group of letters or words given. Four of the five are alike in
a certain way, while one is different. Find out the one
which is different.
Q.1. (1) black (2) red (3) green (4) yellow (5) paint
Of the five, ‘black’, ‘red’, ‘green’, and ‘yellow’ form a group
as they are names of colours. ‘Paint’ is not the name of a
colour. Therefore (5) is the answer.
Now try to solve the following question.

¤È.í. (1) XZ (2) MN (3) PQ (4) BC (5) ST Q.2. (1) XZ (2) MN (3) PQ (4) BC (5) ST

There may also be problems in the form of figures,
designs and drawings. These may be of three types :
1. Analogies 2. Classification and 3. Series
1. Analogies :
In these questions, there are two sets of figures - the
‘Problem Figures’ and the ‘Answer Figures’. The Problem
Figures are presented in two units. The first unit contains
two figures and the second unit contains one figure and a
question mark in place of the fourth figure. You have to
find out which one of the Answer Figures should be in
place of the question mark.
Study the following questions based on Analogies.
zM‹ x[W°¥<Ûœ[r/ Answer Figures
Look at the first two Problem Figures. The second figure
is related to the first figure in a certain way. The first figure
is a square. In the second figure, the square has been
bisected by a vertical line and the right half has been
darkened.
The third and fourth figures should have the same
relationship as the first and the second have. The third
figure is a circle, so in the fourth figure, the circle should
be bisected by a vertical line and the right half should be
darkened. Answer Figure 5 is related to the third Problem
Figure in this way. Therefore the answer is “5”.
zM‹ x[W°¥<Ûœ[r/ Answer Figures
Study the first and the second figures in the Problem
Figures. The first figure is a darkened square and in the
second figure, there are four squares, not darkened,
arranged in a particular way. That means the elements in
the second figure are four times the elements in the first
figure and are not darkened. In addition, the four squares
are arranged in a specific way and are not touching one
another.
The third figure is a darkened circle. Therefore, the fourth
figure should have four circles which are not darkened,
arranged in the same way as in the second figure. Now
look at the Answer Figures. You will find that figure 1
consists of four circles which are not darkened arranged
in a similar way. Therefore, the answer is “1”.

zM‹ x[W°¥<Ûœ[r/ Answer Figures
Study the first and the second figures in the first unit of
the Problem Figures. The first figure is made up of four
lines and the second figure is made up of five lines. That
means the second figure has one line more than the first
figure. The third figure in the second unit has five lines.
Therefore, the fourth figure should have six lines i.e. one
more than the third. Now look at the Answer Figures. You
will find that figure 3 is made up of six lines. Therefore, the
answer is “3”.
Now, attempt the following questions. (Correct answers
to all the unexplained questions are given later in this
booklet).

2. Classification :
Study the following questions based on classification.
Problem–cum–Answer Figures
In classification, the Problem Figures are also the Answer
Figures. Out of the five figures 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, four are
similar in a certain way and so form a group. One figure is
not like the other four. The question is which one of the
figures does not belong to this group.
For example, look at the example at Q. No. 11. Of the five
figures, four figures are such that in each of them, there
are two similar figures, one within the other. These four
figures form a group. Figure 1 is unlike this and so does
not belong to this group. Therefore the answer is “1”.
Problem–cum–Answer Figures
Study the five figures of Q.12. The first four figures form a
group as they represent different types of containers while
the fifth figure, a spoon, does not represent a container.
Therefore the answer is “5”.

expenditure are given. The item in each questions is to be
classified into one of the following five. Heads of
expenditure : (1) Education (2) Food (3) Health (4) Travel
(5) Miscellaneous. The number preceding the Head of
expenditure 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5, as the case may be, is
the answer.
Sample question :
Q.28. Purchase of Rice
Since this item falls under the Head of expenditure “Food”
the answer is “2”.
In the third type of questions, five words or names are
given. You have to find out which word or name will be in
the middle after the words or names are rearranged in
alphabetical order.
Example :
Q.29. (1) might (2) minister (3) mice
(4) mill (5) mince
The alphabetical order will be mice, might, mill mince,
minister. In this order “mill” is in the middle. So the answer
is “4”.

English language ability would be tested through questions
