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 30-minute clock, a question palette and full screen, and your score, the key and the solutions arrive when you submit.

About this test

Organisations and Headquarters Level 2 GK Quiz: Matching and Odd One Out

Level 2 of the Organisations and Headquarters series is a Static GK set of tricky pairings, matching lists and odd-one-out items on world and Indian bodies. It tests whether you can separate organisations that share a city or a country. Aptitude360 includes a full explanation for every answer.

Topics covered in the Level 2 headquarters set

  • Geneva or not: picking which bodies sit in Geneva, such as the WHO, WTO, UNHCR and ICRC, and which do not
  • Shared cities: IAEA and OPEC in Vienna, the IMF and World Bank in Washington DC, the UN and UNICEF in New York
  • Shared countries: UNESCO in Paris and INTERPOL in Lyon, both in France; IOC and FIFA in Switzerland
  • Banks and groupings: ADB at Mandaluyong in Metro Manila, the NDB set up by BRICS, the SAARC and BIMSTEC secretariats
  • Courts and landmarks: the ICJ at the Peace Palace, The Hague
  • Indian bodies: ISRO in Bengaluru, RBI and SEBI in Mumbai

Key concepts beyond simple recall

  • The field each body works in, such as UNEP for the environment and UNESCO for education, science and culture
  • Common traps, such as placing the IMF in New York or UNEP in Geneva
  • Statement-based items that hide one wrong city among correct ones

Preparation tips for matching and odd-one-out items

  • Revise by country as well as by city, because odd-one-out items often turn on the country
  • In List-I and List-II matching, fix the pairs you are sure of first and eliminate options
  • Keep a short list of cities that host more than one body

Who this set is for

This set suits General Awareness aspirants who have learnt the basic headquarters list and want harder, exam-style practice.
