Directions: The given item consists of an underlined word in the given sentence. The sentence is followed by four words. Select the word which is most nearly opposite in meaning to the underlined word.
He made a shrewd guess.
Directions: Read the following passage and answer the given question.
Some researchers suggest that emotional intelligence can be learned and strengthened, while others claim it is an inborn characteristic. The purpose for developing our emotional literacy is to precisely identify and communicate our feelings. When we do this, we are helping nature fulfil its design for our feelings. We must know how we feel in order to be able to fill our emotional needs. And we must communicate our feelings in order to get the emotional support and understanding we need from others, as well as to show our emotional support and understanding to them.
Also, one of the first steps to developing our emotional intelligence is to improve our emotional literacy. In other words, to improve our ability to identify our feelings by their specific names – and the more specific we can be, the better. In the English language we have thousands of words which describe and identify our emotions, we just don't use many of them. If you are interested in working on your emotional literacy, the first step is to start using simple, three word sentences such as these: I feel sad. I feel motivated. I feel offended. I feel appreciate. I feel hurt. I feel disrespected. When we talk about our feelings using three word sentences, we are sending what have been called "I messages". On the other hand, when we say things like "You make me so jealous", we are sending a "you message". These "you messages" typically put the other person on the defensive, which hurts communication and relationships rather than helping.

Directions: Please read the passage below and answer the question that follows
Throughout the world, society stereotypes man as strong, aggressive, logical, insensitive, unemotional, impatient, non-nurturing and mechanically talented while a woman is stereotyped as illogical, emotional, sensitive, patient and naturally nurturing. These stereotypes have exercised a strong hold on how society has viewed men and women. We can see that stereotypes for both man and woman have some positive and some negative characteristics.
Early psychological research suggested that females score high on verbal skills while males score higher on mathematical and spatial skills. Studies also found that men listen with their left hemisphere while women with both hemispheres, which suggests that in addition to content of the statement, women also pay attention to the tone and emotion. However, later researches have found that these differences in cognitive abilities of the two sexes have become less and less obvious as the society has begun to treat the two genders as equal. It has been found that male and female identity begins to develop as early as one year of age, owing to the way our society socialises our children. As a child grows, he/she is told to behave according to what is considered appropriate for his/her sex. The influence that culture can have on our personality was revealed in a landmark study by Margaret Mead in which it was found that there is no identity crisis during adolescence in Samoa tribe due to their liberal gender attitude.

An electronic device beeps after every 60 seconds. A different device beeps after every 62 seconds. They beeped together at 10 a.m. The next time that they would beep together at the earliest is at
(60 = 2 × 30)
(62 = 2 × 31)
(∵ LCM = 2 × 30 × 31)
1 minute = 60 seconds
So, (2 ×30×31) ÷ 60 = 31 minutes
So, they would beep together again after 31 minutes at 10:31 am.
Sushma had marked up her jewelry set up by 33.3%. What approximate percentage discount could she offer if she wanted to earn a profit of 18%?
MP = 1.333x
SP = 1.18x
Let the discount be y%.
⇒ SP = 1.333x - 1.333x x (y/100)
⇒ 1.333x - 1.333x x (y/100) = 1.18x
⇒ 133.3x - 1.333xy = 118x
⇒ 15.3 = 1.333y
⇒ y = 11.477% ≈ 11.5%
Given below are two statements.
Statement 1: A set of numbers arranged in ascending order is: 30, 30, 31, 32, 32, a, b, 38, 38, 40. The arithmetic mean and the median of the set are 34 and 33, respectively. Then a × b = 1156.
Statement 2: Let a and b be any 2 positive integers. If a + 3b = 24, then a – b = 4.
Which of the above is correct?
a + b + 271 = 340
a + b = 69
Given series
30, 30, 31, 32, 32, a, b, 38, 38, 40
n = 10, which is even
To find the median, we have to find average of n/2 th term and ( n/2 + 1)th term
n/2th term = 5th term = 32
(n/2 + 1)th term = 6th term = a
Therefore, median of the given data is:
Average of 5th term and 6th term =
= 33
32 + a = 66
a = 34
∴ a + b = 69
34 + b = 69
b = 35
a × b = 1190
Statement 2
The information given in the condition is not proper because there are two variables and the equation is only 1.
So, statement 2 is false.

Export of Processed Food Tins from a Company
Q. The value per tin was minimum in which of the following years?
In 1996, it is 150/100 = 1.5.
In 1998, 330/150 = 2.2
In 1997, 150/75 = 2
In 1999, 400/160 = 2.5
In 2000, 500/200 = 2.5
From a vessel containing 60 litres of pure wine, 4 litres are drawn out and replaced by water. 4 litres of the mixture is again drawn out and replaced with water. What is the ratio of wine to water in the resultant mixture?
Where A : Amount of the original liquid (wine) left in the mixture at the end of the transaction
Q : Total volume of the mixture = 60 litres
q : Quantity taken away in each transaction = 4 litres
n : Number of times the transaction is performed = 2
Hence, A/Q = (1 – 4/60)2 = 142/152 = 196/225
Thus, the ratio of wine in the mixture is 196/225.
Hence, the ratio of water in the mixture is 1 – 196/225 = 29/225 i.e. the ratio of wine to water is 196 : 29.
In an association of 250 people, the Britishers and Spaniards are in the ratio of 3 : 2. After adding some more Spaniards in the association, the number of Britishers became equal to the number of Spaniards. The mean pension that they received of all the group is $500 and the mean of Spaniards' pension is $50 more than that of the Britishers.
Which of the following statements is/are correct?
(A) Mean of Britishers' pension is $475.
(B) Mean of Britishers' pension is $470.
(C) Mean of Spaniards' pension is $525.
(D) Mean of Spaniards' pension is $520.
(E) Mean of Spaniards' pension is $500.
Total number of people = 250
Ratio of the number of Britishers and Spaniards (initially) = 3 : 2
Hence, initial number of Britishers = 3/5 × 250 = 150
Initial number of Spaniards = 2/5 × 250 = 100
New ratio after adding Spaniards = 1 : 1
So, the number of Spaniards added = 50
Now, total number of people in a association = 250 + 50 = 300
New average pension of all 300 persons = 500
Now, we get,
150x + [150 × (x + 50)] = 300 × 500
300x + 7500 = 1,50,000
300x = 1,42,500
x = 475
Hence, the mean of all the Britishers' pension in the association = $475
Mean of all the Spaniards' pension = 475 + 50 = $525
Directions: The question is based on the following table:
Q. What was the percentage increase in disbursement of loans by all the banks together from 1998 to 1999?

Number of ways to fill an odd place = 5
Number of ways to fill an even place = 4
Therefore,
Total number of cases = (5)4 × (4)3
A boat takes 6 hours to travel from A to B (upstream). The river flows at the rate of 2 kmph. How long will the boat take to travel from B to A (downstream), if the distance from A to B is 36 km?
Let t be the time taken by the boat to travel from A to B = 6 hours
Let V1 be the speed of the boat traveling upstream = x
Let V2 be the speed of the stream = 2 kmph
Distance = 36 km
V1 - V2 = 36/6 = 6 kmph
V1 = 8 kmph
Downstream:
V1 = 8 kmph
V2 = 2 kmph
Net speed = V1 + V2 = 10 kmph
Distance = 36 km
Time = 36/10 = 3.6 hours
Two taps A and B can fill a tank in 5 hours and 20 hours, respectively. If both the taps are open, then due to leakage in the tank, it takes 30 minutes more to fill the tank. If the tank is full, how long will it take for the tank to empty out due to leakage alone?
So, A and B together can fill the tank in 4 hours.
Part filled by (A + B) due to leakage, in 1 hour = 1/4 - 2/9 = 1/36
Hence, the full tank will empty out due to leakage in 36 hours.

The investments of A and B are in the ratio 7 : 8 and the investments of B and C are in the ratio 4 : 5. At the end of the year, they get a profit of Rs. 7500. Out of this profit, A's share is less than the total share of B and C by
Ratio of investments of B and C = 4 : 5 = 8 : 10
A : B : C = 7 : 8 : 10
Total share of B and C = (8x + 10x) = 18x
Share of A = 7x
Required answer = Rs. 7500 × 
= Rs. 7500 × 11/25 = Rs. 3300

Exactly 2 books have fewer pages than G. Neither E nor S has the lowest number of pages.
_> V > E > R > G > _ > _------(3)
W has 76 pages. R has 51 pages. The book with the least number of pages has 42 pages in it.
W > V > E > R > G > S > L
L has 42 pages.
The number pages in book S should be less than 51 but more than 42.
Thus, the correct answer is 47.

Directions: Read the following information carefully and answer the given question.
A minimum viable product (MVP) is a development technique in which a new product or website is developed with sufficient features to satisfy early adopters. The final, complete set of features is only designed and developed after considering feedback from the product's initial users. This technique helps them in making the final product much better. With the help of MVP concept, the research or the marketing team will come to know where the product is lacking and or what are its strengths or weaknesses.
MVP has three distinct features. One is that it will have enough features for consumers to purchase the product (it becomes easier for the company to market it), the other is that it will have some sort of a feedback mechanism wherein users would be able to send their feedback about the product. And, lastly it should have enough future benefits for consumers who choose to adopt the product first (Google gave free upgrade of its OS to all Nexus users). The idea is to get feedback from the consumers which will in turn help in making the desired changes in the final product. MVP actually tests the usage scenario that is much more helpful for the company to make changes to the final product.
The developing team of an MVP will not waste any time on anything beyond the bare minimum, and build every other feature over time as they assess the customers' wishes and preferences as they start using the product. The product may change even dramatically or even get abandoned as feedback from users may significantly diverge from the original project. However, the developing teams will not waste any resources (efforts, time, money, advertising) on a product that no one really wants, needs, or likes. The catch to this development technique is that it assumes that early adopters can see the vision or promise of the final product and provide the valuable feedback needed to guide developers forward.
The whole focus is learning during product development by collecting information from customers that are validated already. Observing users as they utilize the product is much more reliable than trying to validate marketing hypotheses with questionnaires or forecasts. A common pitfall is to release a bare-bone product that is so much below the users' expectations that is not viable at all. In general, the MVP technique is particularly viable for technically-oriented products used by technical users who are often keen on providing practical insights on how to improve or update the product. The concept of MVP has, in fact, been widely adopted by many verticals in the informatics industry. For example, many video games today spend many months (sometimes years) as early access products and are slowly developed as the community grows. Some popular franchises, such as Farmville, fully leveraged the concept of MVP by implementing new gameplay features over time while progressively improving overall user experience.
Q. Which of the following limitations, if true, would hinder the proper adoption of a minimum viable product?
(2) - Even if the free upgrades are there for a limited period, this cannot hinder the adoption of MVPs. The fact that free upgrades are being offered is what matters.
(3) - Standalone surveys are less effective than actual usage metrics. However, when these surveys are conducted specifically to record usage, these can be effective. Hence, it cannot impede the adoption of MVPs.
(4) - This is the correct answer as inferable from 'A common pitfall...expectations that are not viable at all' in the last paragraph.
