BLOOD RELATIONSHIP QUESTIONS
Blood Relations is the most studied topic of Logical Reasoning
and is one of the few topics which has found its importance in
almost every entrance exam. This topic tests the analytical skills
of the students and how one can approach the solution of logical
problems with the help of diagrams instead of calculations.

The diagrams play an important role here. The right

 diagrams come from the right analysis.

marriage is called a Blood Relation.

• Ex: Any relation by birth will be mother, father, son,

daughter, etc. and any relation by marriage will be father-
in-law, mother-in-law, etc.
