6. (B)
Question Type: Unconditional (Orientation)
The best approach to orientation questions, which are typically the first of the questions in a logic game,
is to go through the constraints one by one, eliminating each answer choice that violates a particular
constraint. Typically, there will only be one answer choice that violates any given constraint, so once
you’ve found it, move on to the next constraint. If you’ve confidently eliminated all the rule-breakers,
you can confidently choose the remaining"”correct"”answer choice and move on.
Let’s start with the first constraint. T dives from the plane at some time before W does. Answer (C)
violates this constraint, so we can eliminate it.
The second constraint tells us that L dives from the plane either first or last. In Answer (E), L dives 4th, so
let’s eliminate it.
The third constraint: Neither W nor Z dives from the plane last. W dives last in Answer (A), so that’s out.
And the final constraint: P dives from the plane at some time after either O or L but not both. Our hard
work during the set-up will help us here! Let’s look for answer choices that have neither an L"”P"”O
chain nor an O"”P"”L chain. Ah, Answer (D) has a P"”O"”L chain, which violates this constraint.
We’re left with Answer (B), the correct answer. Trust yourself and move on!
