Correct answers highlighted in green. Full explanations included.

1
Verbal Reasoning

Read the passage below and decide if the following statement is True, False, or Can't Tell based on the text. Passage: Public health campaigns in Germany during the late twentieth century made significant progress in combating infectious diseases. In 2000, the incidence rate of Cholera was recorded at 124 cases per 100,000 people. Following a nationwide distribution of protective nets and sanitation improvements, the rate fell to 62 cases per 100,000 people over the next decade. While this decline was celebrated as a major victory, health officials warned that rising temperatures could allow vector populations to rebound in rural regions. Statement: The incidence rate of Cholera per 100,000 people in Germany decreased after the public health campaign.

  • A.True
  • B.False
  • C.Can't Tell

✓ Worked Explanation

Core Concept: Verifying Decline and Trends Verify numbers and trends by comparing rates before and after an intervention mentioned in the passage. Step-by-Step Resolution: 1. Locate Relevant Information in the Text: - The text states that in 2000, the incidence rate was 124. - It then states that after the campaign, 'the rate fell to 62 cases per 100,000 people...' 2. Compare Statement to Passage Facts: - The statement claims the incidence rate decreased. - 62 is less than 124, whic

Verbal Reasoning

Read the passage below and decide if the following statement is True, False, or Can't Tell based on the text. Passage: During the mid-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, global trade networks reshaped national economies. In 1894, the annual production of wheat in Sweden stood at approximately 61 million metric tons. Following key infrastructure improvements and trade agreements with Egypt, production in Sweden surged to 89 million metric tons by 1911. During this same period, Hungary emerged as the primary global importer of wheat, consuming over sixty percent of the total global export supply, although its domestic production remained minimal. Statement: Egypt produced more wheat than Sweden did between 1894 and 1911.

  • A.True
  • B.False
  • C.Can't Tell

✓ Worked Explanation

Core Concept: Unwarranted Extrapolation Statements that introduce rankings or comparisons not supported by the text are logically false if they contradict direct text assertions. Step-by-Step Resolution: 1. Locate Relevant Information in the Text: - The passage mentions Egypt in the context of trade agreements: 'Following key infrastructure improvements and trade agreements with Egypt...' - It lists Sweden's production figures as rising from 61 to 89 million metric tons. 2. Compare Statem

Verbal Reasoning

Read the passage below and decide if the following statement is True, False, or Can't Tell based on the text. Passage: In 2010, research conducted by researchers led by Dr. Vera Rubin at the Materials Science Lab investigated the properties of Perovskite. Initial experimental setups achieved an energy conversion efficiency of 26 percent. By refining the chemical vapor deposition process and reducing crystalline defects, the team successfully boosted the efficiency of Perovskite to 47 percent in follow-up trials. Despite these promising results, commercial viability is currently limited by the high cost of raw precursor materials and safety regulations governing nanotechnology manufacturing. Statement: The research at the Materials Science Lab was funded by a government scientific grant.

  • A.True
  • B.False
  • C.Can't Tell

✓ Worked Explanation

Core Concept: Speculation vs. Stated Fact Do not fill in missing details with plausible assumptions. Even if university research is often government-funded, you cannot verify it without text evidence. Step-by-Step Resolution: 1. Locate Relevant Information in the Text: - The passage mentions the research was conducted at the 'Materials Science Lab' under 'Dr. Vera Rubin'. 2. Compare Statement to Passage Facts: - The statement claims the research was funded by a government grant. - The

Verbal Reasoning

Read the passage below and decide if the following statement is True, False, or Can't Tell based on the text. Passage: During the mid-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, global trade networks reshaped national economies. In 1883, the annual production of silk in Argentina stood at approximately 11 million metric tons. Following key infrastructure improvements and trade agreements with Netherlands, production in Argentina surged to 55 million metric tons by 1908. During this same period, Australia emerged as the primary global importer of silk, consuming over sixty percent of the total global export supply, although its domestic production remained minimal. Statement: Australia signed an official trade treaty with Argentina to secure its import of silk.

  • A.True
  • B.False
  • C.Can't Tell

✓ Worked Explanation

Core Concept: Absence of Evidence If a statement describes a detail that is plausible but not explicitly stated or logically deducible from the passage, the answer must be 'Can't Tell'. Step-by-Step Resolution: 1. Locate Relevant Information in the Text: - The passage mentions Australia here: 'During this same period, Australia emerged as the primary global importer of silk...' 2. Compare Statement to Passage Facts: - The statement claims Australia signed a formal trade treaty with Argent

Decision Making

How many of the four pictures in the left-hand column are exactly the same as the corresponding picture in the right-hand column?

  • A.0
  • B.1
  • C.2
  • D.3
  • E.4

✓ Worked Explanation

Core Concept: Visual Error Checking Error checking tests your ability to quickly scan two highly complex geometrical patterns side-by-side and spot differences. Step-by-Step Resolution: 1. Row-by-Row Comparison: - Row 1: DIFFERENT. The pattern on the right contains a modification (e.g. geometric endpoints are shifted, dimensions are modified, or shapes are scaled). - Row 2: DIFFERENT. The pattern on the right contains a modification (e.g. geometric endpoints are shifted, dimensions are modified

Decision Making

Based on the Venn diagram, how many members belong to AT LEAST two clubs/groups?

  • A.35
  • B.40
  • C.45
  • D.37

✓ Worked Explanation

Core Concept: Venn Diagram Set Deductions Venn diagrams represent overlaps between sets. Master each discrete region (exclusive vs. inclusive intersections) to calculate totals accurately. Step-by-Step Resolution: 1. Locate Overlapping Regions: We need all intersections of two or more circles. 2. Sum Regions: - Dog Owners & Cat Owners only = 7 - Dog Owners & Bird Owners only = 6 - Cat Owners & Bird Owners only = 13 - All three groups = 9 3. Calculate Total: 7 + 6 + 13 +
