LIC AAO Syllabus 2025: Reasoning Ability

The test of reasoning ability is designed to test the objectivity of the candidates. This section tests the reasoning power of the candidates, which will be helpful while doing the job in a real-time situation. The LIC AAO syllabus of Reasoning Ability is similar for the prelims and main exam because the topics are not defined in the LIC AAO notification. The only difference is the level of difficulty of questions in the prelims and main exam.

The LIC Syllabus does not provide details about the topics of the tests. The candidates need to prepare each topic in its entirety so they can attempt any question. In the prelims, the reasoning ability questions are relatively simple compared to the main exam. They can be easily solved within the time limit, but the questions of the main exam are relatively difficult. The candidates need to prepare more intensely for the LIC AAO prelims exam because it acts as a filter exam in the LIC AAO recruitment process.
