Hello,
I have to take a SHL inductive reasoning online test.
I took the official practice test from SHL and there is no solution. I struggled on this question: what would be the answer and why?
Hello,
I have to take a SHL inductive reasoning online test.
I took the official practice test from SHL and there is no solution. I struggled on this question: what would be the answer and why?
Honestly, there's no clear answer, but the best option seems to be B. Here are the patterns:
However, there are other patterns:
Honestly, I don't like these kind of exercises when one can find multiple perfectly valid options. This is not good testing.
Hi there,
This is indeed an interesting question which is probably relevant for quite a lot of users, so I am happy to provide my perspective on it:
In case you want a more detailed discussion on how to best prepare abstract reasoning tests, please feel free to contact me directly.
I hope this helps,

Hi there,
Are you sure there are no answers?
I believe the answer is B. The sequence is repeating (triangle, square, circle, pentagon), so it's the triangle's turn next. Additionally, the “split” line is alternating from vertical to horizontal back to vertical. The next in the sequence is horizontal.
The correct answer is B.
The most logical patern to recognize is the following:
- The line in the middle of the figures switches back and forward between vertical and horizontal positions
- The number of dots in a figure corresponds with the number of sides of the following figure
This leaves B as the only possible answer.
I noted a relationship between number of sides and the number of dots, in which case for every shape with a odd number of sides has a set of even number of dots. So following that pattern the answer is B.
Hello!
This is a hard one! I would say B, since the line alternates vertical-horizontal and the other option lacks points. However, also struggling here
Cheers,
