Answer Key — Gifted Screening Grade 2

1. D — Each number is multiplied by 3. 12 × 3 = 36.
2. D — In the top row, the figure's fill darkens one step. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives D. The others each make a specific mistake: A applies the change twice; B right change, wrong figure shape; C the bottom figure with no rule applied; E applies a different rule than the top row shows.
3. B — The relationship is "part to its whole." wing → bird, so petal → flower.
4. D — The pattern adds 9 each time. 36 + 9 = 45.
5. B — Each number decreases by 3. 8 − 3 = 5.
6. B — In the top row, the figure's fill darkens one step. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives B. The others each make a specific mistake: A applies the change twice; C copies the top row's result instead of transforming the bottom figure; D the bottom figure with no rule applied; E right change, wrong figure shape.
7. B — The relationship is "young animal to its adult." duckling → duck, so cub → bear.
8. C — The pattern adds 5 each time. 25 + 5 = 30.
9. D — Each number increases by 1. 12 + 1 = 13.
10. D — In the top row, the figure grows. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives D. The others each make a specific mistake: A copies the top row's result instead of transforming the bottom figure; B the bottom figure with no rule applied; C right change, wrong figure shape; E applies a different rule than the top row shows.
11. D — The relationship is "member to its category." oak → tree, so ruby → gem.
12. C — Each number is multiplied by 3. 108 × 3 = 324.
13. B — Each number increases by 2. 5 + 2 = 7.
14. B — In the top row, the figure's fill darkens one step. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives B. The others each make a specific mistake: A the bottom figure with no rule applied; C applies a different rule than the top row shows; D copies the top row's result instead of transforming the bottom figure; E right change, wrong figure shape.
15. A — The relationship is "thing to its usual color." cherry → red, so pumpkin → orange.
16. D — These are square numbers: 1², 2², … Next is 5² = 25.
17. A — Each number decreases by 3. 9 − 3 = 6.
18. D — In the top row, the figure doubles. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives D. The others each make a specific mistake: A a look-alike that doesn't follow the rule; B copies the top row's result instead of transforming the bottom figure; C the bottom figure with no rule applied; E applies a different rule than the top row shows.
19. D — The relationship is "member to its category." carrot → vegetable, so copper → metal.
20. D — The pattern adds 7 each time. 25 + 7 = 32.
