Logical Puzzles Lesson 10ExplanationAlways start with the clearest information. We are told outright that Farah’s weight is 63kgand we can work out his heart rate being 63 as it is the third highest.Next look for information where there is a difference between two values. There are onlytwo values that have a difference of 10 between them for blood pressure. These valuesare 67 and 77. This means that Zolt has a blood pressure of 77, and Geran has a bloodpressure of 67.The only heart rate that has a 2+ gap is 73 and 75. Since this person’s heart rate is 2 morethan Jing, Jing’s heart rate must be 73.This is what we know based on this:Name Heart Rate Weight Diastolic BP Jing 73SathuGeran 67 Zolt 77Farah 70 63We know that Farah weighs 63 which is the second lowest weight. This means that thesame person has a blood pressure of 85 (third highest blood pressure) and a weight of50kg. The only person we do not have the information for both blood pressure and weightis Sathu. This means that his blood pressure is 85 and weight is 50kg. This means that hisweight is 50kg. So the answer is therefore A, 50kg.Name Heart Rate Weight Diastolic BP Jing 73 83 110Sathu 75 50 85Geran 65 78 67 Zolt 67 72 77Farah 70 63 99••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Page 51 ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••UKCAT BMAT www.medicmind.co.uk Interview UCAS
Logical Puzzles Lesson 11 3 Tabular DiagramsFor these questions, you will be presented with a table with information missing. You willhave to decide which of the four statements are correct based on the information and theinformation that has been presented. Worked Example The table below shows the results of a tri-nation rugby tournament. Each team plays each team once only at a neutral ground. Team Played Wins Drawn Lost Tries Scored Tries Conceded 2 2 1England 4Scotland 1 10 WalesWhich of the following statements is true?A. England scored 3 tries in their game against Wales.B. In Wales’ game with Scotland, there were no tries and the game ended in a draw.C. Wales only won a single game.D. Scotland beat Wales by 1 try.ExplanationThe answer is BWe know that Wales drew one game and lost the other, which means that they did not winany games. They also did not score any tries, so the draw must have had zero tries. Weknow that England have won both of their games, so the draw must have been withScotland, who have been with Scotland.••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Page 52 ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••UKCAT BMAT www.medicmind.co.uk Interview UCAS

Logical Puzzles Lesson 12 4 Spatial EquationsHere, you will be given an equation comprising of different shapes. You will have to uselogical reasoning to deduce what the answer to one of the spatial equations is. Werecommend that you use Medic Mind’s Method of Algebra Worked Example The question mark represents a single shape. What shape is this? A. Star B. Square C. Diamond D. CircleExplanationThe answer is BLet:a = starb = squarec = diamondd = circlea=c-b2b = a
Logical Puzzles Lesson 12a + d = 3bc-a=?The fact that we have equation 2, 2b = a is very useful for us because it means we cansubstitute 2b into equations that have a.2b = c - b2b = aa + d = 3bc - 2b = ?Now we should clean up the equations.3b = c2b = aa + d = 3bc - 2b = ?Remember, we are trying to work out equation 4 and need to get rid of either c or b.Equation 1 lets us do this. Now, we can substitute equation 1 into equation 43b = c2b = aa + d = 3bc - 2b = ?3b = c2b = aa + d = 3b3b - 2b = ?We can now solve equation 4,3b - 2b = ?3b - 2b = bWe used b to represent square, therefore the answer is B
Logical Puzzles Lesson 12 Worked ExampleThe question mark represents a single shape. What shape is this? ? A. Star B. Square C. Diamond D. CircleExplanationThe answer is Ca+a=bc + d = 2bd+b=a+cc+d+a=c+xEquation 1:a+a=bEquation 2:c + d = 2bEquation 3:b+d=c+a
Logical Puzzles Lesson 12Equation 4:c+d+a=c+xThe next step would be to clean up and simplify the equations.Equations:2a = bc+d = 2bd+b =c+ad+a=xThe fact that we know 2a = b is very important, as it helps us substitute b for equationsthat have a, just like which we are trying to solve. We should now substitute 2awherever we see b, like in equation2a = bc + d = 2bd + 2a = c + ad+a=xWe can simplify equationd + 2a = c + ad+a=c2a = bc + d = 2bd+a =cd+a=xLuckily for us, equation and equation now appear the same. We therefore know thatthe answer is c. We chose c to be a diamond, therefore C is the correct answer.
Logical Puzzles Lesson 13 5 Conditional ScenariosYou will be given a set of statements involving a character who carries out different actionsunder certain conditions.Your job is to assimilate this information into a form where each answer option follows the Worked Example Khush and Sally are talking about what they do in the park. Sally tells Khush: - When I go on the swings, I go on the roundabout. If I don’t go on the swings, I don’t go on the roundabout. - When I don’t go on the swings, I don’t feel euphoria. - Today, I am euphoric - When I go on the slide, I go on the monkey bars. Place ‘Yes’ if the conclusion follows. Place ‘No’ if the conclusion does not follow. A. Today, Sally is not on the swings. B. Today, Sally went on the roundabout. C. When Sally goes on the swings, she is euphoric D. If Sally is not on the monkey bars, she is not euphoric. E. If Sally is not on the monkey bars, she has not been on the slide.logical understanding given in the statements.ExplanationThe answers are:A. NoB. YesC. YesD. No
Logical Puzzles Lesson 13E. YesTake this question step by step.We should take each statement one by one.A. Today Sally is not on the swingsThe statement concerns today, therefore we should look for statements that involve‘today’. The third statement fits this description as it says that today she is euphoric. Today,Sally is euphoric. When she doesn’t go on the swings she doesn’t feel euphoric meaning ifshe does go on the swings she feels euphoric. The conclusion therefore does not follow,as Sally is clearly on the swings.B. Today, Sally went on the roundabout.Today, Sally is euphoric. When she doesn't go on the swings, she doesn’t feel euphoriameaning when she does go on the swings she does feel euphoria. When she goes on theswings she goes on the roundaboutC. When Sally goes on the swings, she is euphoricWhen she doesn’t go on the swings she doesn’t feel euphoria. This means that when shedoes go on the swings she does feel euphoria. The conclusion therefore does follow.D. If Sally is not on the monkey bars, she is not euphoric.We do not have enough information to infer the relationship between when she is euphoricand when she goes on the monkey bars.E. If Sally is not on the monkey bars, she has not been on the slide.When she goes on the slides she goes on the monkey bars. It can therefore be interpretedthat she only goes on the monkey bars when she goes on the slide. This logic can bereversed in that Sally will not go on the monkey bars if she has not been on the slide.
Interpreting Information Lesson 14 - 19 Learn how to tackle different types of graphical questions including scatter, pie, line, bar, text and table charts.Interpreting InformationIn Interpreting Information questions you will be given information in the form of graphs,charts or written passages. You will be required to read this information and interpret it in amanner which enables you to decide which conclusions best follow.• There could be multiple correct answers to these questions.• You will be presented with a great deal of information. The best thing to do is decide which of the information is relevant which will enable you to save time.• You will not be asked to calculate certain values exactly, so rounding and estimating can be useful tools to use which can help save you time and still gain the correct answer.• Do not use external knowledge as we always advise, and do not assess how strong a conclusion is based on how likely it is. Read the information that has been given to you and decipher whether it supports the conclusion stated or notAnalysing Question InformationJust as other aspects of the decision making section, they are trying to test how well youcan deduce the correct answer by using logical reasoning. You are not expected tounderstand everything that is presented to you. Try and pick the necessary informationand go from there.Sometimes they will ask you to say ‘yes’ if the confusion follows. For these types, askyourself if there is sufficient information that has been presented for this to be deduced.Often it would require external knowledge, and they are testing your ability to recognisethis. They can also have more than one correct answer. This means take each statementindividually and do not use the process of elimination.••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Page 65 ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••UKCAT BMAT www.medicmind.co.uk Interview UCAS

Interpreting Information Lesson 17 6 MapsYou will be presented with a set of shapes and a bit of accompanying information relatedto it. Usually this is in the form of some sort of arrangement, such as a map of a new cityor a seating plan for an examination.When given this information, know two things throughout - what you are trying to work outand what information is relevant to that. Sometimes, you might find that information that isnot directly related to the aspects you are actually trying to work out can be the mostuseful.These questions are like a puzzle. They may give you information that is unnecessary butuse everything that they give you to guide you to the answer. Question 15 The layout below was developed for a local park.

Recognising Assumptions Lesson 20 + 21 + 22 To understand statement questions and work to eliminate the statements that do not address the argument correctly.Recognising AssumptionsRecognising Assumptions questions test your ability to evaluate how strong anargument is in support for or against a solution to a particular problem. You will be givenfour statements, and there will only one which correctly is the strongest argument. It is vitalthat you do not use external knowledge to make decisions for this.There are various factors that decide how strong a certain argument is compared toanother. You will need to assess the validity of the argument presented purely based onthe evidence that is available.For an argument to be valid:- It must be strongly related to the topic of the subject- It cannot be based on assumptions or speculative - This means it cannot presume that something will happen theoretically.- It is more likely to be related to factual evidence rather than opinion.If you follow the criteria above, you will have no problem answering these questions. Let’slook at a few examples now. Question 18 Should abortion be legal to help cases of women being raped and having a child they never planned for? A. Yes. Contraception does not always work, and abortion is an essential part of healthcare. B. Yes. A woman has a right to do what she wants with her body, and rape forces many women to have a baby. C. No. It will not affect the number of women that are raped. D. No. Every foetus has a right to life, and abortion takes away from this.••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Page 75 ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••UKCAT BMAT www.medicmind.co.uk Interview UCAS

Decision Making - Test Day Lesson 23 Prepare for test day by using our week by week plan to structure your Decision Making revision.Week by Week Plan• 4 weeks to go- Familiarise yourself with all the different decision making question types. They are extremely abstract, and each type requires its own skill set. Know what they require.• 3 weeks to go- Understand your strengths and weaknesses for the sections. E.g. if you find syllogisms tricky, spend more time on syllogisms. If you find recognising assumptions easy, allocate more time to syllogisms but this does not mean neglect it entirely.• 2.5 weeks to go - Undertake several practice questions to get yourself in test mode. It is all well and good being able to understand the questions at home, but to do it in a exam setting is a different question.• 2 weeks to go- Work on timing. There are several shortcuts to answering the questions, which will only come when you spend a lot of time practicing. Some of them we have sent you, others you will be able to pick up with your own intuition.• 1.5 weeks to go- Revisit the theory taught using the course booklet and online videos and make sure you are confident with it.• 1 week to go - practice several decision making mocks back to back to develop your concentration skills for test day. When you do this, try and learn how to best use the whiteboard. You might find it useful for example, when answering syllogisms to draw Venn diagrams. You may also find it a waste of time, so it depends on you to find out if it helps you or not.• 3 days to go - Replicate the conditions of the actual exam by sitting down on your computer, using a headset and timing yourself. Find out how you do and see how well you are doing. Again, look at the sections you are finding hard, and spend more time on them. The worst thing you can do is panic! Don’t worry, you still have 3 days and as long as you spend time practicing each section, you will be fine.
Decision Making - Test Day Lesson 23• 1 day to go - Consolidate the techniques briefly and then relax!• Test day - Read over the summaries before the test to trigger your mind. Good luck!
Tips from the Experts Lesson 24 Some words of advice from the Medic Mind Experts1. You are the first to sit this section“Sitting a brand new section is difficult with few revision resources”At this moment in time we know very little about how it is going to pan out, other than thefact that we have covered every possible question type that could come up. The section isnew, so there are fewer resources available, but everyone is in the same boat.2. Treat the section as a game“Decision Making is kind of fun”Each question is a puzzle and the more puzzles you solve, the better chance you have ofwinning the game.3. Abstract concepts require patience“Syllogisms were a nightmare at first. Bananas are gardens…”Many concepts, such as syllogisms, are very abstract and so will require a lot of practiceand patience from your part. However, if you use the Medic Mind techniques you shouldhave covered every angle in preparation for test day.
Tips from the Experts Lesson 244. Do not panic!“Even if I found a new question style, I tried not to panic. All Decision Makingquestions require the same type of logic, so even being put out of my comfort zonedid not worry me too much”If you see a question type you have not seen before or prepared strongly for, don't worry.As long as you do not panic and keep a cool head you have a good chance of getting itright. Many of the techniques used in the different tutorials are very similar, so use them asa base for any unknown questions that might crop up.5. Maintain your concentration“It is hard to focus so late in the test. To prepare I tried to do a mock test in mylibrary. A 2 hour full test, a stuffy room, an old computer… it was a good replica ofthe test day!”This section will require a lot of energy and concentration so ensure that you maintain yourfocus throughout. If you cannot solve one of the 29 questions, do not dwell. This will onlywaste time for you. The section is towards the end so keep concentrating, you’re nearlydone!6. Don’t be fooled by distractors“They can often give you many distracting, irrelevant pieces of information”When presented with a large amount of information, make sure you note which bits arenecessary and which aren't. There will be distractors, just as there are in other sectionssuch as Abstract Reasoning.
Tips from the Experts Lesson 247. Brush up on your mathematical techniques.For Venn Diagrams and Probabilistic Reasoning, brush up on your mathematicaltechniques close to the exam, if you have forgotten how to do them. It will not take toomuch time and will give you confidence when answering questions
