Sample Saber Pro Investigación Jurídica Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Saber Pro Investigación Jurídica exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1A law student in Medellín reads that municipal crews removed street vendors from a plaza and writes in a notebook: “Street vending is a social problem.” For the Saber Pro module Investigación Jurídica, which formulation converts that social fact into a researchable objeto of investigación jurídica or sociojurídica?
A.Poverty in the city center must be ended as soon as possible.
B.How do municipal public-space rules and inspection practices operate when street vendors occupy that plaza?
C.Which party should vendors support in the next local election?
D.How can the student obtain a vendor’s permit for a relative this week?
Explanation: Evidencia 1.1 asks the candidate to identify problems that can be treated as objects of investigación jurídica or sociojurídica. A researchable object names a legal or institutional referent (public-space rules, inspection practices) and a question that legal or sociolegal methods can answer. A slogan, a partisan preference, or a client-service task is not yet that object.
2In Colombian legal research, investigación jurídica often reconstructs norms and jurisprudencia, while investigación sociojurídica links those norms to social practices. Which proposal is a sociojurídica research object rather than a purely dogmatic one?
A.How labor inspectors in Cali’s informal markets actually apply subordination criteria during workplace visits.
B.Reconstructing the legislative history of a single Código Sustantivo del Trabajo article from published travaux.
C.Identifying which Code article a clinic should cite in tomorrow’s demanda.
D.Drafting an employment contract template for a family business.
Explanation: A sociojurídica object asks how law operates in a social setting: inspectors, markets, and applied criteria. Reconstructing legislative history remains a jurídica/dogmatic or historical-legal object. Selecting a citation or drafting a contract are practice tasks, not research objects.
3A faculty committee screens undergraduate thesis ideas for the Investigación Jurídica competence. Which proposal cannot be treated as an objeto of investigación jurídica or sociojurídica?
A.Whether an environmental license was issued after the legally required community consultation steps.
B.How first-instance judges in a circuit apply a published line of jurisprudencia on informal labor.
C.Whether a proposed pedestrian bridge’s steel grade meets a civil-engineering load standard.
D.Whether two lines of Corte Constitucional reasoning on equality are internally coherent.
Explanation: Investigación Jurídica objects are problems that legal or sociolegal methods can address: consultation duties, judicial application of jurisprudencia, or doctrinal coherence. A steel-grade calculation is an engineering question. It may appear in a case file, but it is not itself a legal or sociolegal research object.
4During a seminar, a classmate insists that “access to justice is the problem.” Which restatement is a researchable objeto for Investigación Jurídica?
A.Access to justice must improve in Colombia.
B.Peace is a constitutional value that everyone should share.
C.The student will win more tutelas next semester.
D.What barriers do rural users face when trying to file a tutela in municipal courts of Huila?
Explanation: Evidencia 1.1 rewards converting a slogan into a delimited question with a legal mechanism (tutela), a population (rural users), and a setting (Huila municipal courts). Value statements and personal practice goals do not yet constitute a research object.
5Which of the following is a valid objeto of investigación jurídica (dogmatic), as opposed to a free-standing moral opinion?
A.Whether Colombians are honest in everyday life.
B.How the Corte Constitucional has constructed the equality test applied to public-sector hiring disputes in a defined period.
C.Whether the researcher personally admires the 1991 Constitution.
D.Which political candidate would best protect workers.
Explanation: A dogmatic investigación jurídica object reconstructs and evaluates legal reasoning—here, a court’s equality test in a bounded set of hiring disputes. Personal admiration, national character, and electoral preference are not legal-method objects.
6A consultorio jurídico student is preparing a housing case and also drafting a thesis proposal. Which question is a research problem rather than a professional-practice decision?
A.Which remedy should I file tomorrow for this client?
B.Should I settle if the landlord offers two months’ rent?
C.Which remedies do public-university legal clinics in Bogotá actually use in housing cases, and with what recorded outcomes over three years?
D.How do I fill the court’s cover sheet without a rejection stamp?
Explanation: Investigación Jurídica distinguishes a researchable object from the next procedural move in a live file. Comparing clinic remedies and outcomes across a defined set of cases is sociojurídica research. Tomorrow’s filing, settlement, or form-filling are practice.
7A proposal is titled “The crisis of the family in Colombia” and states no court, no comisaría, no statutory institution, and no jurisprudencia. The best diagnosis under evidencia 1.1 is that the proposal:
A.States a social diagnosis that is not yet an objeto of investigación jurídica or sociojurídica.
B.Already satisfies Investigación Jurídica because “family” appears in the Civil Code.
C.Is automatically sociojurídica because it mentions Colombia.
D.Is valid as Comunicación Jurídica and therefore counts for this module.
Explanation: Without a legal or institutional referent, “family crisis” remains a social diagnosis. Naming an institution (comisaría, alimentos process, visitation orders) would open a legal or sociolegal object. Mere presence of a civil-law word, a country name, or a different Saber Pro module does not convert the slogan into Investigación Jurídica.
8A student announces the research problem: “To prove that the 1991 Constitution is the best constitution in the world.” Which reformulation is a researchable investigación jurídica object?
A.To celebrate the Constitution in a patriotic essay.
B.To rank countries by the researcher’s personal preference.
C.To show that all criticism of the Constitution is illegitimate.
D.To compare how a specific constitutional mechanism (for example, tutela standing) is designed and how selected courts have applied it.
Explanation: “Best in the world” is a value judgment that cannot be tested as an Investigación Jurídica object. A delimited comparison of a mechanism’s design and judicial application can. Celebration, preference ranking, and silencing criticism are not research problems.
9A classmate proposes: “Design a mediation session for two neighbors who argue about a wall.” For Investigación Jurídica (not Gestión del Conflicto), which version is a researchable object?
A.The script the student will read as mediator next Saturday.
B.How municipal conciliation centers document agreements and what legal effects those agreements later produce in local litigation.
C.Which neighbor is morally right about the wall.
D.How to calm both parties using only body language.
Explanation: This module tests research design, not conflict-management performance. Documentation practices and the legal effects of conciliation agreements are sociojurídica objects. The live mediation script, a moral verdict, and body-language technique belong to other competences.
10A proposal’s “problem” is: “Interview all magistrates of the Corte Suprema de Justicia this semester to know what they really think.” The main defect under evidencia 1.1 is that the student has:
A.Confused an infeasible data-collection wish with a delimited research object about law or legal practice.
B.Chosen the only valid method for any investigación jurídica.
C.Correctly treated unpublished private opinions as a substitute for jurisprudencia.
D.Satisfied the module by naming a high court.
Explanation: A research object is a question about norms, institutions, or legally relevant practices that methods can address. “Interview everyone on the Court this semester” is a sampling fantasy, not a problem. Published decisiones, a feasible sample of despachos, or a reconstructed line of jurisprudencia would be objects; private opinions are not a shortcut around that work.

Saber Pro Investigación Jurídica Study Tips from Top Performers

1Follow the published 40/40/20 split: equal time on project design and evaluating published studies, then ethics.
2ICFES items test whether a problem is researchable as legal or sociolegal inquiry — not whether you can recite a Código Civil article from memory.
3Keep title, general objective, specific objectives, and problem statement internally consistent; evidencia 1.2 scores that relation.
4Do not treat a political slogan, a purely technical engineering fix, or an unfalsifiable moral claim as a legal solution to a research finding (evidencia 2.2).
5These MCQs are an English study aid. Practise also with ICFES's Spanish cuadernillos so the official language and stem style are not a surprise.
