Welcome Job Aspirants,
Reasoning is one of four
main sections of most of the competitive examinations including SSC, RRB, IBPS,
UPSC or any other government or private firm examinations Recruitment
Examinations. A good knowledge of reasoning is very much important for cracking
any competitive recruitment examinations. Since Reasoning Syllabus on analogy of SSC Exam is a very vast
subject which includes all the field of our day to day life situations problems,
understanding of those critical
situation, relationships to one another and many more. In this Post Series We
will be discussing about Various SSC Reasoning Tips and Questions from analogy Section. Analogy is the means of comparing two different
sections of logic with some specific features these sections. Let’s go in depth
of the topic.
SSC Reasoning on Analogy generally means
relationships between two words or two sentences or two things. Analogy gives
the similarity between two different group of things which shares same type of
features or ideas. Questions from analogy section generally composed of
Semantic analogy or Symbolic analogy or Figural Analogy.
Semantic Analogy:
Semantic analogy generally
forms with words having similar meaning in senses and thus here candidate has
to find out which is correct option for given word, which is similar like
meaning with the given example. The main aim of this type of analogy is to test
the candidate’s ability to recognize the similarities of different entities of
our day to day life and situations.
e.g. Teeth : Mouth::
Brain: Skull
Here relation of Teeth and
Mouth is similar to the relation of Brain with Skull. In both the cases firth
thing is situated inside second thing i.e. Teeth is always situates in Mouth
and Brain is always situated inside Skull.
Tips and Tricks 1:
If all the option have
similar type then find the word with closest meaning matches with the question
pair.
Gather all the
corresponding words and sentences of any words or thing you know like games,
animals, country, synonyms/antonyms, states/nations, musical instruments and
players, Political leaders and their parties, Famous book and writer, Movies
and cast and crew and many more.
Symbolic or Number analogy:
This type of analogy
covers the relationships between word formation, positional relations of
letters, mathematical equations and relations, Mathematical properties of
numbers, Different values, Position values etc.
e.g. 67:42 :: 84:32 here
42=6*7 Similarly 32=8*4
or MNO:LMN::PQR:OPQ here
all the second latter of both group is backed by 1 positions.
Tips & Tricks 2:
By heart square/cube of
numbers or Square root/ Cube root of numbers up to 30.
Learn the basic operations
of mathematics like multiplications/division/addition/ subtractions and how to
use them logical questions.
By heart the positions of
English letters like a has position 1, b has 2, c has 3 etc. by heart EJOTY
word to recall positions with multiple of 5. i.e. E has position 5 and Y has
position 25 and so on for other.
Figural Analogy:
Figural analogy relates
the common features like similarities, orientations, structures, rotations,
elemental relations, positional relation, size relations, no of elements of two
different figures.
Rotation of figure may be
in both directions i.e. clockwise or anticlockwise. So first of all find the exact
rotation direction.
Pattern of element placed
in the figure also may be one of the analogical tricks for solving analogy
figural analogy questions
Image rotation of the
figure is also one of the most analogical tricks of solving questions
Tips and
Tricks 3:
While solving figural
analogy question always keep in mind that how the figure is formed, how many sticks
are used in the figure, how many close boundaries are there in the figure,
rotation of items in the figure, numbers of elements in the figure, image form
of the figure, vertices of the figure, change in the values of elements.
