1Which spelling correctly means 'The guide is in the bag, and the map is there too' in this constructed Turkish sentence?
A.Kılavuz çanta da, haritada orada.
B.Kılavuz çantada, harita da orada.
C.Kılavuz çantada, harita'da orada.
D.Kılavuz çanta'da, harita da orada.
Explanation: Çantada uses the attached locative suffix. Harita da uses the separate additive conjunction, which does not take an apostrophe.
2Read the constructed Turkish notice: 'Kütüphane pazartesi kapalıdır. Diğer günlerde ödünç verme işlemi saat 17.00'de sona erer.' Which statement follows?
A.Loans are issued on Monday until 17.00
B.The library closes at 17.00 every day
C.On days other than Monday, lending ends at 17.00
D.The library is open only on Tuesday
Explanation: The notice specifies Monday closure and the end of lending on other days. It does not state the building's closing time on those days.
3In 'Dosyayı yeniden inceledi; çünkü ilk incelemede bir sayfa eksikti', what relationship does çünkü establish?
A.It gives the reason for the renewed examination
B.It introduces a comparison between two people
C.It denies that a second examination occurred
D.It states an event that must occur afterward
Explanation: Çünkü introduces the reason: a page had been missing from the first examination. The second review is the action explained by that reason.
4A reading group has 18 morning participants and 12 afternoon participants, with no overlap. What percentage of all participants attend in the afternoon?
A.30%
B.66⅔%
C.60%
D.40%
Explanation: There are 18 + 12 = 30 distinct participants. The afternoon share is 12/30 × 100 = 40%.
5Two desks work for 48 minutes. Desk A processes 7 forms every 12 working minutes but pauses for 12 minutes during this period. Desk B processes 5 forms every 8 minutes without a pause. At these constant rates, how many forms do they process altogether?
A.41
B.46
C.51
D.58
Explanation: Desk A works 48−12=36 minutes and processes 3×7=21 forms. Desk B processes 6×5=30 forms, so the total is 51.
6Three mobile library visits recur every 8, 12 and 18 days. All visit today, a Monday. If the schedules continue unchanged, on which weekday will their next shared visit occur?
A.Monday
B.Tuesday
C.Wednesday
D.Friday
Explanation: The least common multiple of 8, 12 and 18 is 72 days. Since 72 leaves remainder 2 when divided by 7, the next shared visit is two weekdays after Monday: Wednesday.
7Which reform is associated most directly with bringing educational institutions under a unified national educational administration?
A.Tevhid-i Tedrisat
B.The adoption of the Surname Law
C.The adoption of the Latin-based Turkish alphabet
D.The establishment of a new calendar system
Explanation: Tevhid-i Tedrisat concerns unification of education. It should be distinguished from reforms concerning surnames, writing and calendars.

A.Devletçilik
B.Halkçılık
C.İnkılapçılık

Explanation: ATAM describes halkçılık through equality, public participation and rejection of class privilege. The other principles address different central aspects of the reform program.
9Which conclusion best respects the constitutional presumption of innocence when a person has been accused but not convicted?
A.The accusation alone proves guilt
B.The person must prove innocence before any authority may hear the case
C.Guilt must not be treated as established merely because the accusation exists
D.Opening a case automatically removes every right of defence
Explanation: An accusation and established guilt are distinct. The constitutional safeguard prevents public authorities from treating the unresolved accusation itself as a conviction.

A.Yusuf Has Hâcib
B.Kâşgarlı Mahmud

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this independent bank cover?

It offers selective practice in selected Turkish reading and spelling, quantitative reasoning, reforms, citizenship, culture and geography. It does not claim complete coverage of the official outline.

Does this reproduce the official assessment?

This is an independent English-language MCQ study adaptation, not an official translation or a simulation of the official language environment. The bank is selective rather than comprehensive. Four-option study questions do not replace any required writing, translation, recitation, interview, practical, physical, medical or subsequent training assessment.

Which eligibility rules apply?

The guide specifies at least 40% documented disability and relevant secondary, associate or bachelor-level eligibility, together with applicable citizenship/status and reporting conditions. Kura is a separate route for specified lower education levels; it is not this test bank.
