Answer Key — OLSAT Grade 2

1. A — These are square numbers: 2², 3², … Next is 6² = 36.
2. A — Each step, the fill moves one step through the cycle (light to dark, then starting over). Continuing one more step gives A. The others: B the right step on the wrong shape; C jumps two steps ahead; D repeats the last figure instead of stepping on; E the right figure with the wrong fill.
3. B — The relationship is "opposites." high → low, so hard → soft.
4. A — The pattern subtracts 7 each time. 15 − 7 = 8.
5. B — Each step, the fill moves one step through the cycle (light to dark, then starting over). Continuing one more step gives B. The others: A jumps two steps ahead; C the right step on the wrong shape; D repeats the last figure instead of stepping on; E steps backward in the series.
6. C — The relationship is "item to the room it belongs in." desk → classroom, so car → garage.
7. D — The pattern subtracts 7 each time. 17 − 7 = 10.
8. C — Each step, the figure alternates big and small. Continuing one more step gives C. The others: A repeats the last figure instead of stepping on; B does not continue the series; D the right step on the wrong shape; E the right figure with the wrong fill.
9. C — The relationship is "action to its opposite." float → sink, so come → go.
10. D — The pattern adds 4 each time. 20 + 4 = 24.
11. D — Each step, one more shape appears each time. Continuing one more step gives D. The others: A the right step on the wrong shape; B steps backward in the series; C the right figure with the wrong fill; E repeats the last figure instead of stepping on.
12. B — The relationship is "young animal to its adult." duckling → duck, so cub → bear.
13. C — The pattern subtracts 5 each time. 20 − 5 = 15.
14. C — Each step, the fill moves one step through the cycle (light to dark, then starting over). Continuing one more step gives C. The others: A repeats the last figure instead of stepping on; B jumps two steps ahead; D the right step on the wrong shape; E steps backward in the series.
15. C — The relationship is "item to the room it belongs in." car → garage, so desk → classroom.
16. C — The pattern subtracts 5 each time. 17 − 5 = 12.
17. A — Each step, the fill moves one step through the cycle (light to dark, then starting over). Continuing one more step gives A. The others: B jumps two steps ahead; C repeats the last figure instead of stepping on; D the right step on the wrong shape; E the right figure with the wrong fill.
18. C — The relationship is "worker to their workplace." judge → court, so actor → stage.
19. A — The pattern adds 8 each time. 25 + 8 = 33.
20. C — Each step, the fill moves one step through the cycle (light to dark, then starting over). Continuing one more step gives C. The others: A steps backward in the series; B repeats the last figure instead of stepping on; D the right step on the wrong shape; E jumps two steps ahead.
