The shape of the set before you start it.
Verbal Classifications MCQ – Part 4 sits inside Reasoning, under the 03 Verbal Classifications lane, and the portal keeps it as one self-contained set: 25 questions, four options each, no clock and a written explanation behind every answer.
Attempt it once to find the gaps, read why each distractor is wrong, then retake the same set a few days later. The questions you miss twice are the ones worth writing down.

Explanation: The rule is 2x² − 1: 2 × 100 − 1 = 199, 2 × 64 − 1 = 127 and 2 × 25 − 1 = 49. For x = 12, 2 × 144 − 1 = 287, not 289.
Which label should be moved from a natural-satellite display to a planet display?
Answer: (D) Venus
Explanation: Venus is a planet orbiting the Sun. Titan, Europa and Ganymede are natural satellites orbiting planets.
Use A = 1 to Z = 26. Three codes contain only letters whose positions are prime numbers. Which code contains an exception?

Answer: (B) 853
Explanation: For abc − cba, use 99(a − c). 853 has 8 − 3 = 5, giving 495; the other outer-digit differences are 4, giving 396.
Find the heat-transfer example in which conduction, rather than convection, is the main mechanism.
Answer: (D) A metal spoon warming in hot tea
Explanation: Heat travels through the metal spoon by conduction. The other examples involve bulk movement of a fluid, which is convection.
Each code has exactly one repeated letter. In three codes, the two copies have exactly two letters between them. Which code differs?

In three pairs, the two numbers have a sum of 100. Which pair instead has a difference of 100?

Each number is claimed to be the square of a two-digit integer ending in 5. Which claim is false?
Answer: (C) 4825
Explanation: 35² = 1225, 55² = 3025 and 75² = 5625. A square ending in 25 has the form 100a(a + 1) + 25; 48 is not a product of consecutive integers, so 4825 fails.
In each group the middle position should equal the absolute difference of the outer positions. Identify the invalid group.
Answer: (B) TGV
Explanation: TGV has outer difference 22 − 20 = 2, but G = 7. The others give 17 − 11 = 6 = F, 15 − 12 = 3 = C and 23 − 18 = 5 = E.
For a first-class lever, the fulcrum lies between effort and load. Which device does not have this arrangement?

A model-maker needs solids bounded entirely by flat polygonal faces. Which model must be excluded?

Explanation: A cone has a curved surface. Cube, tetrahedron and triangular prism have only flat polygonal faces.
Use the relation change of state : final state. Which pair names the wrong final state?

A valid number is divisible by the product of its non-zero digits. Which candidate fails this test?
Answer: (C) 136

Answer: (A) 650
Explanation: An integer divided by 8 becomes a multiple of 125 over 1000. 650 is not a multiple of 125, whereas 125, 375 and 875 are.
Where the marks actually come from.
