1What comes next in the series: 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, ...?
A.127
B.125
C.129
D.131
Explanation: The pattern is double the number and add 1 (n * 2 + 1) or add successive powers of 2. Specifically, 3*2+1=7, 7*2+1=15, 15*2+1=31, 31*2+1=63, and 63*2+1=127.

A.UVWFGPV
B.UVVFGOP
C.UVFGPVT
D.UVFGPKV
Explanation: The coding pattern is a simple shift of +2 for each letter: S (+2) -> U, T (+2) -> V, U (+2) -> W, D (+2) -> F, E (+2) -> G, N (+2) -> P, T (+2) -> V. Thus, STUDENT becomes UVWFGPV.
3Pointing to a photograph of a boy, Suresh said, 'He is the son of the only son of my mother.' How is Suresh related to that boy?
A.Brother
B.Uncle
C.Father
D.Grandfather

A.Only conclusion I follows
B.Only conclusion II follows
C.Both conclusions I and II follow
D.Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Explanation: Since all books are pens and some pens are pencils, there is no definite link between books and pencils, so Conclusion I does not follow. However, since some pens are pencils, it is necessarily true that some pencils are pens, so Conclusion II follows.
6Five people A, B, C, D, and E are sitting in a row facing North. A is to the immediate right of B. C is sitting next to E but not next to D. If D is at the extreme left, who is sitting in the middle?
A.A
B.B
C.C
D.E
Explanation: D is at the extreme left: D, _, _, _, _. A is to the immediate right of B, which means they are placed as B, A. C is next to E but not next to D. This means the layout from left to right must be D, B, A, E, C or D, B, A, C, E. In either configuration, B is second and A is in the middle.
7Six friends P, Q, R, S, T, and U are sitting around a circular table facing the center. R is sitting second to the right of U. P is sitting immediate left of S. T is sitting between P and R. Who is sitting immediate right of U?
A.Q
B.P
C.S
D.T
Explanation: Let's place U at position 1. R is second to the right of U, so R is at position 3. T is between P and R, which means P must be at position 5 and T at position 4. P is immediate left of S, so S must be at position 6. The remaining friend Q must be at position 2, which is immediate right of U.
8'Court' is related to 'Justice' in the same way as 'School' is related to:

Explanation: Substituting the operators: 36 / 4 * 3 + 2 - 5. Following BODMAS: 36 / 4 = 9; then 9 * 3 = 27; then 27 + 2 = 29; finally 29 - 5 = 24.
