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

How the two modes differ
No account needed

Normal

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.
Real exam conditions

Simulated

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. 50 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

Word Building and Social Intelligence Level 2 Practice Questions

This Level 2 set helps you check how quickly you can form words from a longer word, unjumble letters, sort words in dictionary order and choose sensible responses in everyday social situations. It also includes logical sequences such as plant growth and administrative units. Aptitude360 gives a worked solution for every question.

Topics in this word building and social sense set

  • Words that can or cannot be formed from a given word, such as PARLIAMENT
  • Jumbled letters that make a word, its category or a letter at a given position
  • Dictionary order of words with the same starting letters, such as words beginning with pre, can and go
  • Logical order of life stages, farming steps, units of time and administrative units
  • Social situations: extra change returned by mistake, a grieving friend, a quarrel within a team

Core ideas behind word formation and situation questions

  • A word is possible only if it needs no letter more often than the source word has it
  • In dictionary order, the first letter that differs decides the position
  • Sequences follow natural growth, cause and effect, or size from small to large
  • The best social response is honest, kind and calm, and it fixes the problem

Revision tips for Level 2 word building

  • Note each letter of the source word with its count before you check the options
  • In situation questions, drop options that avoid the problem, hit back or hide a mistake

Who can use this Level 2 set

Learners who know the basics of verbal and basic reasoning and now want medium-level practice.

FAQs about Word Building and Social Intelligence Practice Questions with Detailed Solutions – Level 2

What is word building in reasoning?
Word building questions ask which words can be formed from the letters of a given word, or which word a set of jumbled letters makes. Each letter can be used only as many times as it appears in the given word.
What is social intelligence?
Social intelligence is the ability to understand people and respond sensibly in social situations. Reasoning tests check it through situations where you pick the most mature, honest and considerate action.
How do you choose the best answer in a social situation question?
Pick the option that deals with the problem directly while staying honest, calm and respectful to everyone involved. Reject options that ignore the issue, take revenge, blame others or hide a mistake.
How do you arrange words in dictionary order?
Compare the words letter by letter from the left and order them by the first letter that differs. If one word is the start of another, the shorter word comes first.
