Instructions

How to answer “I, II and III” questions
  1. Judge each statement on its own. Write ✓ or ✗ next to it before you look at the options.
  2. Start with the statement you are surest about, then cross out every option that disagrees with it. Often one sure statement leaves only two options.
  3. Watch for words such as always, only, never or zero: one counter-example makes the whole statement false.
  4. Do not choose “I, II and III” just because all three sound familiar. Every statement must be true in this exact situation.
