Prueba temática 1: How logical reasoning tests work

  1. Pregunta 1 de 15

    A logical reasoning question tells you to use only the information given. One statement does not match what you know from real life. How should you answer?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: C. Treat the statements as true and use only them

    Logical reasoning tests check whether a conclusion follows from the statements. Accept the statements as true, even if they seem odd, and do not add outside knowledge.

  2. Pregunta 2 de 15

    In a deductive reasoning question, what makes a conclusion correct?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: B. It must be true whenever the statements are true

    A valid deductive conclusion follows necessarily: if the statements are true, the conclusion cannot be false.

  3. Pregunta 3 de 15

    Which task is an example of inductive reasoning?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: C. Finding a rule from several examples and using it on a new case

    Inductive reasoning moves from examples to a general rule, as in number series and table patterns. The rule is likely, not guaranteed, so test it on every example.

  4. Pregunta 4 de 15

    A question asks which statement MUST be true. One option is possible from the statements, but not certain. What should you do with that option?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: C. Reject it, because it is not certain

    "Must be true" means true in every arrangement that fits the statements. An option that is only possible does not meet that test.

  5. Pregunta 5 de 15

    A test has 24 questions and an 18-minute time limit. About how much time do you have per question on average?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: B. 45 seconds

    18 minutes = 1,080 seconds, and 1,080 ÷ 24 = 45 seconds. A common mistake is reading 18 ÷ 24 = 0.75 minutes as 75 seconds.

  6. Pregunta 6 de 15

    You have spent well over your average time on one hard question and still cannot solve it. What is the best plan?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: D. Pick your best answer, mark it for review if you can, and move on

    Time spent on one hard question is time lost on easier ones. Make your best choice, mark it if the test allows, and come back if time is left.

  7. Pregunta 7 de 15

    According to the Public Service Commission of Canada, what happens to your score when you mark a question for review in its online tests?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: D. Nothing; marking a question does not affect your score

    The Public Service Commission says the "Mark for Review" box is only a reminder to come back to a question, and marking does not influence your score.

  8. Pregunta 8 de 15

    In supervised online tests described by the Public Service Commission of Canada, what is provided for rough work?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: B. Rough paper and pencils

    The Public Service Commission says rough paper and pencils are provided. Use them to sketch orders, seating plans and Venn diagrams.

  9. Pregunta 9 de 15

    What is the best first step in an ordering or seating puzzle?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: C. Draw the positions and fill in the fixed facts first

    Sketch the slots (a line or a circle) and place anything that is fixed, such as "Gus is first". Then add the clues that link people together.

  10. Pregunta 10 de 15

    When is "Cannot be determined" the correct answer?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: D. When the statements allow more than one answer to the question

    Choose "cannot be determined" only after checking that the statements fit at least two different answers. If only one answer fits, pick it.

  11. Pregunta 11 de 15

    To prove that a conclusion does NOT follow from the statements, what do you need?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: C. One possible case where the statements are true and the conclusion is false

    This is called a counterexample. If the statements can all be true while the conclusion is false, the argument is not valid.

  12. Pregunta 12 de 15

    In logical reasoning tests, what does the word "some" mean?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: B. At least one, and possibly all

    "Some A are B" only tells you at least one A is B. It does not say that some A are not B.

  13. Pregunta 13 de 15

    "Every guard at the site holds a licence. Dev is a guard at the site. So Dev holds a licence." Which part is the conclusion?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: B. Dev holds a licence

    The conclusion is the claim the other statements support. Words like "so" and "therefore" often come just before it.

  14. Pregunta 14 de 15

    A number series starts 2, 4, 8. You think the rule might be "double the number". What should you do before you use that rule?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: B. Check that it fits every number given in the series

    Several rules can fit the first few terms. A rule found by inductive reasoning must fit every example given before you trust it.

  15. Pregunta 15 de 15

    You have ruled out two of the four options. What is the best next step?
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: A. Test each remaining option against every statement

    Elimination narrows the field, but only checking each remaining option against all the statements tells you which one is right.

Qué debes saber antes del examen

  • The Government of Canada's Skills for Success model describes problem solving as the ability to identify and analyse problems, propose solutions and make decisions.
  • The Skills for Success problem-solving skill includes seeking patterns, making connections across information and identifying possible cause-and-effect links.
  • Skills for Success also lists logical thinking and "if-then" thinking as part of addressing a problem.
  • A valid deductive argument has a form such that if its premises are true, its conclusion must be true; an inductive argument makes its conclusion probable.
  • The Public Service Commission of Canada advises test takers to read questions carefully, manage their time and leave time to review their answers.
  • In the Public Service Commission's online tests, a timer shows the time left, the test closes when time is up, and marking a question for review does not affect your score.
  • Rough paper and pencils are provided in the Public Service Commission's supervised online tests.
  • Accommodation measures during Government of Canada testing are tailored to the candidate's situation; tell the person who invites you as soon as possible.

Preguntas frecuentes

What is the Certificate of Completion, and what is it not?

It shows that you finished this course and scored at least 80% on the final assessment. It is not an accredited qualification, a government or employer certification, or a result from any test publisher.

Are these questions from real employer tests?

No. Every question was written for this course to practise the same kinds of skills. Real tests differ between employers, so read your invitation and the instructions carefully.

How does the final assessment work?

It has 30 questions drawn at random from the course question bank, with a 30-minute time limit. You need 80% to pass, and each attempt gives a new mix of questions.

Do I need to study formal logic first?

No. The lessons teach everything the questions use: alphabet positions, simple diagrams, if-then rules and how to test a pattern. Practice and a steady method matter most.

Does this course cover abstract reasoning with pictures?

Patterns are described in words and tables rather than shown as pictures. The skills are the same: find what changes, what stays the same, and test the rule on every example.

How should I practise?

Read one lesson, take its untimed topic quiz and read the explanations for anything you got wrong. When you score well on all six topics, try the timed final assessment.

¿El certificado está acreditado o reconocido oficialmente?

No. Es un certificado de finalización privado, solo para tus conocimientos. No está reconocido, acreditado ni aprobado por ningún gobierno, organismo de licencias, regulador ni institución educativa, y no sustituye ninguna licencia, certificación ni formación exigida por la ley.
