Shape Series - Main Solving Strategies
• Isolate and focus one item at a time
• Track its changes throughout the frames
• Look for popular patterns, e.g.:
❑ Rotation
❑ Mirror images
❑ Increase/decrease in size and/or quantity
❑ Displacement
❑ Colour/shading
• Eliminate irrelevant answer options
• Repeat process if needed
• Don’t look at answer options until you have at least one pattern figured out
