Analogy means ‘correspondence’(x:y::a:b). In the questions based on analogy, a particular relationship is given and another similar relationship has to be identified from the alternatives provided. Analogy tools are therefore meant to test one’s ability to reason -how far you are able to compare and comprehend the relationship that exists between two objects, things or figures. Verbal analogy measures the ability to understand the relationship between two given words or group of letters, presented in abbreviated form. See the following example. Moon : Satellite :: Earth : Planet This abbreviated form conveys the idea that moon is related to satellite in the same way as the earth is related to planet. Look for the Kinds of Relationship There are many possibilities in establishing a relationship. Here are some useful points on the basic general knowledge required for the test.
