Normal practice, or a Simulated test

Both use the same questions. Normal practice is untimed and needs no account: choose an option and the answer and solution appear at once. The Simulated test is the real computer-based format, with one 60-minute clock, a question palette and full screen, and your score, the key and the solutions arrive when you submit.

Untimed

Every question on one page, loading as you scroll. Choose an option and see straight away whether it was right.

  • No timer. Nothing to start and nothing to submit. Stop whenever you like.
  • Answered as you choose. Tap an option and it is marked at once, with the correct answer shown.
  • Solutions in place. The explanation, and the video where one has been added, sit under the question.
  • Open to guests. Normal practice needs no sign-in.

Timed CBT

The computer-based test format: one clock, a question palette, and a score the moment you submit.

  • A clock that does not pause. 60 minutes from the moment you begin, and the paper is submitted for you when it reaches zero.
  • Question palette. Answered, not answered and marked for review, section by section, as the real interface has it.
  • Full screen, proctored. The test takes over the screen; leaving it three times submits the paper.
  • Answers hidden until you submit. The key, the explanations and your score all arrive together at the end.

About this test

Analogy Reasoning Level 3 Practice Quiz with Worked Solutions

This Level 3 analogy set on Aptitude360 checks whether you can find the hidden rule that links two terms and apply it to a new one. It covers number analogies, number sets, letter-cluster shifts, coded words and word-pair relations, along with odd-one-out classification questions. Every question comes with a worked solution.

Question types in this Level 3 analogy set

  • Number analogies: rules built on squares, cubes and their sums or differences
  • Number sets and triads: finding the missing term that follows the rule of the given sets
  • Letter-cluster analogies: forward and backward shifts of alphabet positions
  • Coding by analogy: words coded through letter shifts, and words coded as numbers
  • Word relations: part to whole, worker to tool, cause to effect, deficiency to disease
  • Classification (odd one out): numbers, letter-pairs and letter-clusters that break a common pattern

Analogy concepts worth revising

  • Squares and cubes of small numbers, so power-based number rules are easy to spot
  • Alphabet positions from both ends, which speeds up decoding of letter shifts
  • Common word relationships such as part and whole, cause and effect, and worker and tool
  • The direction of the analogy, since some questions place the related term first

Tips for solving hard analogy questions

  • Test the simplest rule first, such as a square, a cube, or adding or subtracting one, before trying combinations
  • In letter coding, write the position value under each letter and compare the gaps letter by letter
  • For word pairs, frame the relation as a sentence and check that the chosen option fits the same sentence

Who should practise this analogy set

It suits reasoning aspirants who have finished the basics of analogy and want harder, mixed-pattern practice at the advanced level.

FAQs about Analogy Practice Questions with Detailed Solutions – Level 3

What is analogy in reasoning?
An analogy question gives a pair of terms linked by a rule and asks you to find the term that relates to another in the same way. The terms can be words, numbers or letter groups.
What are the types of analogy reasoning questions?
The main types are word analogies, number analogies and letter-cluster analogies. This set also includes odd-one-out questions, which are classification questions that are often practised alongside analogy.
How do you solve number analogy questions?
Check basic operations first, such as squares, cubes, or adding or multiplying by a fixed number. Then apply the rule you found to the given term and confirm it against the options.
How do you solve letter-cluster analogy questions?
Write the alphabet position of each letter in the first pair and note how much each letter moves forward or backward. Apply the same movement to the third cluster, letter by letter.
