Logic comes in various shapes and sizes. And it is often tested in the weirdest of manners. However, entrance exams have a set repertoire of questions. So let's just plunge into one of those typical type of questions.
Number series is a typical type of question that tests the candidate's mathematical ability.
A series of numbers is given and one has to identify the pattern that connects all the numbers. Typical series are arithmetic of geometric progressions. However, questions asked in entrance tests are not typical. One needs to think in terms of
- arithmetic progressions
- geometric progressions
- primes odds evens multiples squares cubes....
- multiple series (combination of 2 or 3 different series done alternatively)
Repeated practice with number series questions is the only key to crack these type of questions
