Figure Classification test presents three figures with certain similarities and students are asked to select another figure from a set of figures that has the same characteristic.
In order to answer questions, students usually need to apply the the following reasoning process:
- Try to identify the common characteristics that the three figures share;
- Check the selection figures and determine the one with the same characteristics;
- If the answer is unique then you got the answer. Otherwise, you need to re-identify the common characteristics and recheck the choices.
