Subject/Section Number of Questions
Data Sufficiency 20
Problem Solving 55
Total Questions in Analytical Ability 75

i) Data Sufficiency - Most of the questions in this area will have data in the form of statements and arguments. Say for instance, if the data given in the first option explains everything that the question is asking, then without any doubt, the answer is option 1 or it could be the second option if the first option fails to answer the question. This process of analysing the data can be perplexing and this is the reason why candidates need to read the statements carefully.

ii) Problem Solving - Candidates will get answers in this section from Sequences and Series, Data Analysis, Coding and Decoding problems, Date, Time and Arrangement problems. Check what all is included under each subhead in the table below-

Sequence & Series

Data Analysis

Coding & Decoding Problems

Date, Time & Arrangement Problems

Analogies of numbers and alphabet, completion of blank spaces following the pattern in a: b: c: d relationship, odd thing out: missing number in a sequence or a series.

The data is given in a Table, Graph, Bar diagram, Pie chart, Venn diagram or a Passage is to be analysed and the questions pertaining to the data are to be answered

A code pattern of English alphabet is given. A given word or group of letters are to be coded or decoded based on the given code or codes

Tips to Attempt Questions in TS ICET Analytical Ability Section

Primarily, it is important to understand the questions and write down a brief explanation of why each choice is correct or incorrect while practising sample questions. This is important because, if one understands the reasoning for the practice items, solving the actual problem on the final day will become easier. At the time of TS ICET 2024 preparation, making charts or drawing a picture can prove to be a good strategy for anyone.

Read both the factual passage and the sentence completion instruction carefully. This helps in the selection of the right response in less time. Avoid assuming answers. One must read the whole problem, and then selects the best hint or clue before starting to solve the problem.

TS ICET Preparation: Smart Strategies to Answer Questions

Data Sufficiency 

  • Clear basic mathematical concepts as this will help attempt questions with clarity.
  • Read and re-read each question before selecting an answer on assumption.
  • The ideal step will be to go systematically. By this, we mean, solve questions with the first statement and then proceed with the second separately.
  • When both the options are tried, analyse which of the option helps you reach the conclusion.

Problem Solving

For the Sequence and Series, as already mentioned, ‘practice is the key.’ Besides, follow the tips mentioned below-

  • List the common patterns in one place. Aspirants will find most of the questions are a combination of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. One can also find squares, cubes, reverse patterns as well.
  • In the odd one out, try to find again a similar pattern. If there are names of four places, try to find the odd one out.
  • In Date, Time and Arrangement problems, keep your practice consistent. This will help you to answer the questions fast.
  • In the Coding and Decoding problem area, candidates will find a code pattern of the English alphabet. For this area, if one has learned the number for each alphabet then they can be quick to answer say ‘T’ is 20. The idea is to save time for tricky questions.
  • In Data Analysis, there are direct questions based on simple tables and pie charts. This section can help candidates score full marks if they attempt the questions carefully and with perseverance.
