Concept Overview

Input-Output questions present a machine or arrangement that changes words or numbers step by step according to a hidden rule. The task is to identify the rule and predict a required intermediate or final step.

SSC CGL focus: Compare consecutive steps and identify exactly which element moves or changes at each stage.

Quick Tricks & Shortcuts

  • Compare Step I with the input before analysing later steps.
  • Check whether ordering is ascending, descending, alphabetical, positional, or alternating.
  • Once the rule is found, verify it against at least two consecutive steps.
