Overview of Cognitive Section Topics
The cognitive section typically includes questions on following topics:
Numerical Reasoning
Numerical reasoning involves interpreting and analyzing data presented in numerical form. Questions in this section are Number series only.
Abstract Reasoning
Abstract reasoning questions test your ability to identify patterns, logical rules, and relationships in visual data. These questions are designed to assess your lateral thinking and problem-solving skills. Topics covered in this section are —
- Shape Series
- Shape Analogies
- Matrices
Caliper Sample Test Numerical Reasoning Questions
1.What is the next number in the sequence below?
5 13 29 61
A. 125
B. 121
C. 97
D. 89
Explaination
A) 125
Sequence 5, 13, 29, 61 with differences ×2: +8, +16, +32, next +64 → 61+64 = 125.
2.What is the next number in the sequence below? 2 6 11 17 24
A) 32
B) 31
C) 29
D) 33
Explaination
A) 32
Differences increase by 1: +4, +5, +6, +7; next +8 ⇒ 24+8 = 32.
3.Which of the following boxes should be the next to complete the pattern?

Explaination
Correct Answer is D
Rule 1: Elements moves in anticlockwise direction
Rule 2: Elements at top left and bottom right are black and the other two are white
Following both the rules the next figure in the series will be Option D
4.Which of the following boxes should be the next to complete the pattern?

Explaination
Correct Answer is E
There are two elements inside of a square in each figure of the sequence.
Rule 1: Triangle moves in corners in clockwise direction of the square in every iteration.
It starts from Top Left > Top Right > Bottom Right > Bottom Left.
So next position will be again back to Top Left
Rule 2: Triangle changes colour in alternate positions from black to white.
So next figure will have black triangle, since the last figure had white triangle
Rule 3: Circle moves in anticlockwise direction as well but it covers midpoint of every side of square along with the corners.
So next figure will circle in bottom right, basis its last position.
So next figure in the sequence which follows all three rules is Option E.
5. Which of the following boxes should replace the question mark (?) to complete the pattern

Explaination
The correct answer is B)
Rule 1: Row 1 has grey-colored figures,
Rule 2: Row 3 has the same figures as white but in double quantity
Hence Row 2’s first figure will be a white-coloured figure and a heart(since the first figure of both rows 1 and 3 is a heart).
Only Option B satisfies this criteria
6.What is the next number in the series? 3, 6, 5, 10, 9, 18, …
A) 17
B) 19
C) 20
D) 21
Explaination
The even-placed numbers increase with doubling differences, while odd-placed numbers also follow a doubling difference pattern.
The next odd number should be 17.
Let’s analyze the pattern in the series:
– The first number is 3.
– The second number is 6 (3 × 2).
– The third number is 5 (6–1).
– The fourth number is 10 (5 × 2).
– The fifth number is 9 (10–1).
– The sixth number is 18 (9 × 2).
It appears the pattern alternates between multiplying by 2 and subtracting 1.
Following this pattern:
– The next step should be subtracting 1 from 18.
So, the next number in the series is:
18–1 = 17
Therefore, the next number in the series is 17
7. Determine the missing number in the series: 2, 5, 11, 23, ?, 95
A. 42
B. 43
C. 45
D. 47
Explaination
Correct Answer is D)
Let’s analyze the pattern in the series:
5=2×2+1
11=5×2+1
23=11×2+1
Following this pattern, the next number should be:
?=23×2+1=47
Continuing the pattern to check:
95=47×2+1
So, the missing number in the series is 47
8. Which of the following boxes should replace the question mark (?) to complete the pattern

Explaination
Option C is correct.
The following rules are applicable here –
Rule 1 – From the Second and Third Columns, we can conclude that the first Figure contains 4 elements of the same type, the second contains 5, and the third has 6 elements.
Option E gets eliminated here since E has 5 elements
Rule 2 – Each column has the same type of elements,
Options A and D get eliminated
Rule 3 – Each of the first figure of columns – Out of 4 elements, 1 is shaded and 3 are non-shaded
Option B gets eliminated.
9.Which of the following options best completes the pattern?

Explaination
Correct Answer is E
There are two elements inside of a square in each figure of the sequence.
Rule 1: Triangle moves in corners in clockwise direction of the square in every iteration.
It starts from Top Left > Top Right > Bottom Right > Bottom Left.
So next position will be again back to Top Left
Rule 2: Triangle changes colour in alternate positions from black to white.
So next figure will have black triangle, since the last figure had white triangle
Rule 3: Circle moves in anticlockwise direction as well but it covers midpoint of every side of square along with the corners.
So next figure will circle in bottom right, basis its last position.
So next figure in the sequence which follows all three rules is Option E.
10.Which of the following options best completes the pattern?

Explaination
Answer:Â Option A
Explanation:
the black triangle is next to the previous black triangle
