IPS Non-Verbal Reasoning pack E paper 4 Section D

choose one shape that is most like the first two.

HELP!!! DD (and me :oops: ) really struggle with this type of question, can someone please tell me why:

Q4 is B
Q8 is E

And while I'm here... does anyone have any tips for this question type?
I'm finding some of the IPS questions to be quite ambiguous.

Thanks

D

Hi,

Q4 C is the only shape divided into 6 sections, like the first two shapes.

Q8 Look at the total number of straight lines. The first two have 9 each, only E has the same.

I have no tips, just keep at it! I bought this pack after seeing it discussed on here. Although some questions are ambiguous, consensus was they are so like the gl-assessment types they are worth persevering with.

Good luck.

Thanks so much! I really appreciate that :D

every so often we just come across one that makes no sense to us :oops:
At least we will be able to move onto the GL assessment ones soon, although I really wish we had started earlier than we did (DD was doing so well with the Bond books! but it's all gone a bit pear shaped over the summer).


Roll on October :wink:
