Sample SMUP UNPAD Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the SMUP UNPAD exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1All research fellows in the Universitas Padjadjaran agro-industrial laboratory have completed statistical genomics training. Some research fellows in the laboratory work on sustainable cassava cultivars. Which of the following statements must be true based strictly on these premises?

A.Some research fellows working on sustainable cassava cultivars have completed statistical genomics training.

B.All research fellows who completed statistical genomics training work on sustainable cassava cultivars.

C.No research fellows working on sustainable cassava cultivars have completed statistical genomics training.

D.All research fellows in the agro-industrial laboratory work on sustainable cassava cultivars.

Explanation: Because all research fellows in the laboratory have completed statistical genomics training, any subset of those fellows—including the 'some' who work on sustainable cassava cultivars—must necessarily have completed the training. Therefore, some research fellows working on sustainable cassava cultivars have completed statistical genomics training.

2Suppose an institution uses this rule: if a program achieves a specified accreditation, it must publish annual peer-reviewed impact assessments. Program Beta does not publish those assessments. What follows under the rule?

A.Program Beta will achieve international accreditation next semester.

B.Program Beta has not achieved international accreditation.

C.Program Beta publishes impact assessments in local non-peer-reviewed bulletins instead.

D.Program Beta received a special regulatory waiver exempting it from publication requirements.

Explanation: By modus tollens (if P then Q; not Q; therefore not P), denying the necessary consequent ('does not publish annual peer-reviewed impact assessments') strictly necessitates denying the antecedent ('has not achieved international accreditation').

3Premise 1: No endangered plant species in the Jatinangor botanical conservation reserve may be harvested for commercial purposes. Premise 2: Java tea (Orthosiphon aristatus) is harvested for commercial herbal production. Which conclusion logically follows?

A.Java tea is grown in every conservation reserve across West Java.

B.All endangered plant species are harvested for commercial herbal production.

C.Java tea is not an endangered plant species in the Jatinangor botanical conservation reserve.

D.The Jatinangor conservation reserve allows commercial harvesting under certified permits.

Explanation: Since no endangered plant species in the reserve may be harvested commercially, and Java tea is harvested commercially, Java tea cannot belong to the set of endangered plant species in that reserve.

4Consider the hypothetical proposition: 'If a student is awarded Scholarship A, then the student maintains a cumulative GPA of at least 3.75.' Which statement is its logically equivalent contrapositive?

A.If a student maintains a cumulative GPA of at least 3.75, then the student receives Scholarship A.

B.If a student does not receive Scholarship A, then the student does not maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 3.75.

C.A student cannot maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.75 without being enrolled.

D.If a student does not maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 3.75, then the student does not receive Scholarship A.

Explanation: The contrapositive of any conditional statement 'If P, then Q' is 'If not Q, then not P'. Both are logically equivalent. Here, P is 'awarded the scholarship' and Q is 'maintains a cumulative GPA of at least 3.75', so the contrapositive is 'If a student does not maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 3.75, then the student is not awarded the scholarship.'

5Five students—Dewi, Fajar, Gilang, Hani, and Indra—are ranked by score. Fajar scored higher than Dewi, Dewi higher than Gilang, Gilang higher than Indra, and Hani higher than Indra. Who received the lowest score?

A.Indra

B.Dewi

C.Gilang

D.Fajar

Explanation: The first three relations give Fajar > Dewi > Gilang > Indra. The final relation also places Hani above Indra, so every other student scored higher than Indra.

6Suppose these premises hold: 1. All members of a student-council executive board are enrolled full-time. 2. No full-time student is eligible for a specified part-time stipend. 3. Bagus is eligible for that stipend. Which statement must be true?

A.Bagus is president of the executive board.

B.Bagus is not a member of the executive board.

C.Bagus is enrolled full-time.

D.No student is enrolled full-time.

Explanation: From Premise 2 and 3, since no full-time student is eligible for the stipend and Bagus is eligible, Bagus cannot be an enrolled full-time student. From Premise 1, all executive board members must be enrolled full-time. Since Bagus is not enrolled full-time, Bagus cannot be a member of the executive board.

7Six panelists—K, L, M, N, O, and P—sit in a straight row of six chairs numbered 1 to 6 from left to right. - M sits in chair 4. - K sits immediately to the left of M. - P sits in chair 6. - O sits immediately to the left of L. Which panelist must sit in chair 1?

A.O

B.L

C.K

D.N

Explanation: M sits in chair 4. K is immediately to the left of M, so K is in chair 3. With P in chair 6, the available chairs are 1, 2, and 5. Since O sits immediately to the left of L, O and L require two consecutive adjacent chairs, which can only be chairs 1 and 2. Therefore, O must sit in chair 1, L in chair 2, and N in chair 5.

8A regional agricultural report observed that over five consecutive harvest seasons in Majalengka, farmers who implemented precision drip irrigation recorded a 28% reduction in water expenditure and a 14% increase in shallot yields compared to those relying solely on conventional surface furrow flooding. Which conclusion is most reasonably supported by this evidence?

A.Precision drip irrigation is the sole technological factor capable of increasing vegetable yields in West Java.

B.Surface furrow flooding invariably damages the root systems of all allium crops.

C.Farmers in Majalengka who do not adopt precision drip irrigation will suffer total harvest failure.

D.Adopting precision drip irrigation is associated with both reduced water costs and improved shallot productivity in the surveyed conditions.

Explanation: The report presents empirical data demonstrating reduced water expenditure and increased yields among farmers using precision drip irrigation over five seasons. The safest and most robust conclusion directly reflects these findings without unwarranted extrapolation.

9Analyze the numeric pattern: 4, 7, 13, 25, 49, ... What is the next number in this sequence?

A.97

B.95

C.99

D.101

Explanation: Examine the recursive relationship between consecutive terms: each term is generated by multiplying the preceding term by 2 and subtracting 1 (4 * 2 - 1 = 7; 7 * 2 - 1 = 13; 13 * 2 - 1 = 25; 25 * 2 - 1 = 49). Alternatively, the successive differences are 3, 6, 12, 24, which double each time. The next difference is 24 * 2 = 48, so 49 + 48 = 97.

10Whenever the campus central server encounters a power surge, the digital library catalog goes offline. The digital library catalog is currently offline. Which deduction is valid?

A.The campus central server definitely encountered a power surge.

B.The campus central server may have encountered a power surge, but other technical faults could also have taken the catalog offline.

C.The campus central server never encounters power surges during regular academic hours.

D.The digital library catalog cannot go offline unless scheduled maintenance is announced.

Explanation: The conditional statement establishes that a power surge is a sufficient condition for the catalog going offline, but not necessarily the only condition. Inferring that a power surge definitely occurred commits the formal fallacy of affirming the consequent. The catalog may be offline due to other reasons, such as software updates or fiber-optic disconnections.
