Test Question Answer Key

Now that you know your IQ score, your Intelligence Type and your rank along the four
intelligence scales (Mathematical, Visual-Spatial, Linguistic and Logical), we thought you
might want to go back and see how you answered various questions. People often waver on
at least a couple of questions, so we've provided the full set of questions along with the
answer key.

= your answer
= correct answer

1. Which one of the five choices makes the best comparison? LIVED is to DEVIL as 6323 is
to:
2336
6232
3236
3326
6332

The most important thing to notice in comparing the words in this problem is that "devil" is
"lived" spelled backwards. This is the pattern that you need to apply to the number 6323 -
solve the problem by finding which number is 6323 "spelled" backwards. The answer is
3236, option C.

2. Which one of these is least like the four?


Horse
Kangaroo
Goat
Deer
Donkey

Try picturing each of the five animals in the list and thinking of which characteristics 4 of
them have in common that is not found in the fifth.

You might start by thinking that some have fur. If you picture all of the animals on the list,
you actually find that they all have fur. Because all the animals on the list are included in
the group called "animals with fur," you know that this cannot be the right answer - you
need a categorization that excludes one - and only one - animal from the group.

The right answer is that the kangaroo is least like the other four, option B. One reason for
this is that a kangaroo can get around on two legs, whereas all of the others are four-
legged animals. Another reason is that a kangaroo carries her young around in a pouch,
whereas none of the other animals have evolved with pouches to carry their young. There
are other justifications as well - how many can you think of?

4. Even the most ___________ rose has thorns.
Ugly
Weathered
Elusive
Noxious
Tempting

This incomplete sentence is focused on the fact that roses have thorns.
When thinking about this fact, you may find that you have a negative
reaction to the idea of rose thorns. After all, while thorns may serve a
positive purpose for the rose itself, anyone who has grabbed a rose by
its thorns knows that this is a negative experience and will view thorns
with caution from then on.

The way this sentence is constructed tells you that the word you need
to fill in the blank is something that contrasts with the downside of
roses - the fact that they have thorns. It is a sentence that contrasts
positive with negative: "Even the most (positive thing) has (negative
thing)." Therefore, we know we are looking for a word that fits into the
sentence that describes a positive aspect of roses. In looking over the
list of 5 words, all are negative with the exception of the word
"tempting". This makes "tempting," answer option E, the best choice to
fill the blank.

When looking for two pairs of things that act the same way, the best
way to approach the problem is to identify how the complete pair
relates the two items.

In this example, the first item in the complete pair is an image of two
triangles stacked vertically and the second item is two circles lined up
horizontally. The first pair has two items that differ in two notable
ways: (1) in their shape (triangle vs. circle), and (2) in their physical
orientation (vertical vs. horizontal). The first image is the "opposite" of
the second image.

When looking for the missing image that completes the second pairing,
you should keep in mind what you learned from the first pair (shape and
physical orientation). In looking at the first image in the second pair,
you'll notice that it contains circles that are stacked vertically.
Therefore, you should be looking for the "opposite" of the first pair -
triangles that are lined up horizontally. The only answer option that fits
this description is D, therefore D is the correct answer.

8. A fallacious argument is:


Disturbing

This is a vocabulary question. The definition of fallacious is "based on an


incorrect or misleading notion or information." The words "disturbing"

of Intellectual Rocket
Achievement Gas

To solve this problem, study the three phrases and their translations to
figure out the meanings of the foreign words. The phrases "Necor Buldon
Slock" and "Buldon Gimilzor Gondor" both contain a word that translates
as "explosion"; also, the only word that these two foreign phrases have
in common is "buldon." Therefore, "buldon" must mean "explosion".
Following this same procedure with "necor," you will find that "necor"
means "danger". By looking at the first foreign phrase again - "Necor
Buldon Slock" (which translates as "Danger Rocket Explosion") you can
deduce that "slock" means "rocket" since you know the meanings for
"buldon" and "necor". Translating word for word, the phrase is "Necor
(Danger) Buldon (Explosion) Slock (Rocket)". As is generally the case
with foreign languages, the sentence syntax differs in translation.
Answer option D, or "Rocket," is the correct answer.

that is 8 years older than he is. She won't always be 3 times as old as he
Reading is, but she will always be 8 years older than he is, so x + 8 is the best
representation for the sister's age in relation to the boy's age. As the

of Intellectual becomes 12 + 8, which equals 20. Therefore the correct answer is "B," or

plug in some numbers test it. For example, you know that if you are

State
hours (time). Plug this into the formula T=d/r to see if it's true: 2 =
IQ Test
120/60 - it works out!
Development
Additional
Now that you have a formula that works, you can solve this problem by
plugging in the values that are known. 30 minutes is the time, 28 miles
Reading
is the distance, and the rate of travel (miles per hour) is unknown. Since
you will want to solve this problem in terms of hours, you'll want the
Certificate
time to be expressed in terms of hours; 30 minutes is the same as 0.5
of Intellectual
hours, which is the measurement that you'll want to use in your
Achievement
equation.

Solve for r:

0.5 = 28/r
0.5r = 28 multiply both sides by r (0.5 x r = 0.5r; 28/r x r = 28)
r = 56 divide both sides by 0.5 (0.5r/0.5 = r; 28/0.5 = 56)

Since r (the rate of travel) equals 56, the car was going 56 miles per
hour and the correct answer to this problem is "C."

18. If all Zips are Zoodles, and all Zoodles are Zonkers, then all Zips are
definitely Zonkers.
The above sentence is logically:
True
False
Neither

To solve this problem, it may be helpful to draw a diagram. The


question is phrased in such a way that you might be able to see a
progression of inclusions, much like Russian nesting dolls (which stack
one inside the other) or concentric circles. Try following this series of
steps to arrive at your answer:
1. The innermost layer is the group called "Zips". Draw a small
circle in the middle of a piece of paper and write "Zips" inside
the circle.
2. The next layer out is the group called "Zoodles". Since we are
told that all Zips are Zoodles, we know that the circle that we
draw to signify the group called "Zoodles" will need to include
the circle we drew to include the group called "Zips". However -
this is where it gets tricky - this does not mean that all Zoodles
are Zips, so we need to account for cases in which a Zoodle is
not a Zip, so the circle we draw to signify the group called
"Zoodles" must be larger than the one we drew to signify "Zips".
Draw another circle on your paper, which both includes the
circle you drew to signify the group called "Zips" and is also
slightly larger than the Zips circle, then write "Zoodles" in the
space inside the larger circle and outside the smaller circle.
Your diagram should now look like two nested (or concentric)
circles, the smaller marked "Zips" and the larger marked
"Zoodles". What this diagram says is that "all Zips are Zoodles,
but not all Zoodles are Zips".
3. Continue in this way, drawing the third circle layer and
identifying it as "Zonkers." Now the diagram reads "all Zips are
Zoodles, but not all Zoodles are Zips - and - all Zoodles (and
Zips) are Zonkers, but not all Zonkers are Zoodles (or Zips)."

From looking at the completed diagram, we can see that the group
called "Zips" is wholly included in the circle called "Zonkers," therefore,
all Zips are definitely Zonkers and answer option "A", True, is the
correct answer.

To figure out this problem, the first thing you might want to do is
choose an arbitrary distance between point X and point Y. In this
example, 60 is an easy number to work with so let's say the distance
between point X and point Y is 60 miles.

If Jack averaged 30 miles per hour from point X to point Y, he would


have arrived at point Y in two hours (60 miles/30 mph = 2 hours). If he
averaged 10 miles per hour on the return trip, he would have arrived
back at point X after 6 hours (60 miles/10 mph = 6 hours). His total
travel time would have been 8 hours (two hours to get there, six hours
to return).
If Sandy averaged 20 miles per hour from point X to point Y, she would
have arrived at point Y in three hours (60 miles/20 mph = 3 hours). If
she averaged 20 miles per hour on the return trip, she would have
arrived back at point X after 3 hours (60 miles/20 mph = 3 hours). Her
total travel time would have been 6 hours (three hours to get there,
three hours to return).

Sandy finished traveling first; the correct answer is "B."

26. Two cars start off at the same point on a straight highway facing
opposite directions. Each car drives for 6 miles, takes a left turn,
Reading
and drives for 8 miles. How far apart are the two cars?
2 miles
Certificate
of Intellectual 11 miles
Achievement 14 miles
20 miles
26 miles

To solve this problem, you may want to get a piece of scratch paper.
Draw a point on your paper that indicates the starting location of both
cars. From here, draw a line that is 6 units long in opposite directions
from the starting point (you decide what a unit is; if you used ? inch as
your unit, the distance that on car goes would be 1 ? inches). The line
you end up with should be 12 units long and straight. For the purposes
of this example, let's say that line runs East-West. From there, each car
turns left and drives 8 miles (units). In this case, one of the cars would
have driven due north and the other would have driven due south. Your
illustration should look kind of like a "Z". Now you know the location of
each car.

To find out how far apart they are, use the Pythagorean Theorem,
which says that the square of the longest side (hypotenuse) of a right
triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this
case, the distance between the two points is the hypotenuse of a right
triangle. The distance the cars drove away from each other in the East-
West direction was 12 miles, so one side of the right triangle is 12 units
long. The distance the cars drove away from each other in the North-
South direction was 16 miles, so the other side of the right triangle is 16
units long. Plugging these values into the Pythagorean Theorem, you
should get:

12^2 + 16^2 = c^2


144 + 256 = c^2
400 = c^2
SQRT 400 = c
20 = c

The cars are 20 miles apart, so answer option "D" is the correct answer.

Try thinking of which characteristics 4 of the shapes have in common


that is not found in the fifth - you need a categorization that excludes
one - and only one - shape from the group.

The right answer is that the circle, option B, is least like the other
three. The circle is the only shape that does not contain a finite number
of straight lines around its perimeter.

For the picture sequence above, find the picture that follows
logically from one of the six below.
To solve this problem, use a process of elimination. For each piece of
the pattern you identify (a condition), look through the potential
answer options to eliminate those that do not fit the pattern. If you do
this for each element of the pattern separately, you should end up with
a single shape that fits all of the conditions.

First, notice that each square in the existing diagram contains a division
line that runs diagonally across it, dividing the square into two halves
that contain different color patters. The first condition is that the
diagonals of the three existing shapes are placed such that they are
forming the perimeter of a diamond-type shape in the center of the
overall image. The square that fits in the lower-right quadrant of this
image must have a diagonal line that crosses from its upper-right corner
to its lower-left corner. The answer options that fit this condition are
"C", "D" and "F". The rest of the answer options can now be eliminated.

There are two more conditions present, both of which only exist in
answer option "C": " Compare the inner halves of the squares that lie
across the center point diagonally from one another. The color pattern
is inverse such that the half circle of one is the color of the remaining
portion of the other. If you apply this condition to the relationship
between the blank space and the square diagonally opposite from it,
you'll find that the square that fits in the lower-right quadrant of this
image must have a green triangle-like shape (half square) surrounded by
pink in its upper half. " Compare the outer halves of the squares that
next to each other horizontally. The color pattern is inverse such that
the half circle or square of one is the color of the remaining portion of
the other. If you apply this condition to the relationship between the
blank space and the square to its left, you'll find that the square that
fits in the lower-right quadrant of this image must have a grey triangle-
like shape (half square) surrounded by tan in its lower half.
The correct answer is "C" because it meets all three of these conditions.

To answer this question, try tracking the movement of the shades


squares. If you'd like to draw it out on scratch paper, try numbering
each square from left to right, top to bottom. You would end up with a
grid of squares with numbers in each square:

1234
5678
9 10 11 12
13 14 15 16

Look at each of the three illustrations that set the pattern and take
note of the movement:
squares 6 and 11 are shaded in all three illustrations. The fourth
illustration should also have shaded squares 6 and 11.
in the first illustration, square 4 is shaded. In the second
illustration, square 7 is shaded. In the third illustration, square 10 is
shaded. This indicates a diagonal movement across the field of squares.
The fourth illustration should have a shaded square 13.
in the first illustration, square 13 is shaded. In the second
illustration, square 9 is shaded. In the third illustration, square 5 is
shaded. This indicates a vertical movement from the bottom to the top
of the far left side of the field of squares. The fourth illustration should
have a shaded square 1.

The only answer option that fits these three conditions is answer option
"B".

Fill in the empty box above with the correct picture from below

All of the information given about this illustration indicate that it is


symmetrical. Given that, the only squares you need to examine to find
the correct fill for the empty box are the corner squares. Each of the
corner squares has a diagonal line across the square forming a visual
barrier - if the ends of each line were extended, they would cross at
right angles and form a diamond-type shape. Answer option "B"
completes this pattern.

Certificate

Achievement The first thing you should notice is that there is a box in the pattern
which is blocked out. Because it is blocked out, you will need to guess
what the image in that space is based on what you know of the pattern.

The middle row of this pattern indicates that the larger shapes in any
given row are the same, but vary in whether they shaded or not. From
this, you can deduce that the large shape in the obscured box is an oval
and the large shape in the white box is a circle. This eliminates answer
options A and C because neither of them contains a large circle.

By looking at the top and middle rows or the left and right columns, you
know that each row and column in the pattern contains at least one
non-shaded large shape. Because the bottom row currently contains a
large shaded circle in two of its boxes, you know that the white box
must contain a non-shaded large circle.

To further confirm the pattern, look at the small shapes on the diagonal
that runs from left to right. You'll notice that the small shapes are
exactly the same along this diagonal. Because the box that lies
diagonally to the upper left of the white box contains a small plus sign,
you know that the white box must also contain a small plus sign.

The only image that fits the pattern in the space of the white box is
answer option D, which contains a large non-shaded circle and a small
plus sign.

The first step in answering this question is to compare the first pair of
illustrations. In doing so, note that the squared edges of the first
illustration become rounded in the second and that the color
combination is inverted from the first illustration to the second.
Applying this information to the second pair, you know you are looking
for an illustration with rounded edges where the color combination is
inverted from the first illustration to the second (light grey oval with
dark grey circle). The correct answer is option "A".

The first illustration is a square and the second illustration is a vertical line.
The first illustration of the second pair is exactly the same as the first
illustration of the first pair, except that the lines that describe the square
are dashed instead of solid. This information tells you that you are looking
for a vertical line (same as the second illustration of the first pair) drawn
with dashes (consistent with the relationship between the first illustrations
of each pair). The correct answer is option "B".

40. Which design does not belong in this group?

Try thinking of which characteristics 4 of the illustrations have in common


that is not found in the fifth - you need a categorization that excludes one -
and only one - shape from the group.
The right answer is that option "C" is least like the other four. Option "C" is
the only illustration that does not contain a large shape connected to a
small shape. Instead, option "C" illustrates two small, connected shapes.
