Solution From “Some cakes are jewels” and “All jewels are rings” ⇒ those cakes are rings ⇒ “Some rings are cakes” is definitely true ⇒ Conclusion II follows.
From “Some rings are necklaces” and “All jewels are rings” we cannot be sure that the necklaces are jewels, so I does not follow.
“No jewel is necklace” is also not forced; it might be true or false, so III does not follow.
So, only II follows.

There is no link given between buds and trees, so we cannot say “some buds are trees” ⇒ III does not follow.

Solution Check Conclusion I: “Some pots are drinks.”
We know:
Some pots are eatables.
All eatables are drinks.
So those eatables (which are pots) are definitely drinks.
Hence Some pots are drinks → TRUE
✔ Conclusion I follows.
Check Conclusion II: “All eatables are pots.”
We only know:
Some pots are eatables
But not
All eatables are pots
So this cannot be concluded.
❌ Conclusion II does NOT follow.
Check Conclusion III: “Some drinks are eatables.”
Given:
All eatables are drinks
This directly means:
Eatables ⊂ Drinks → So definitely some drinks are eatables.
✔ Conclusion III follows.

NIMCET 2027 Previous Year PYQ NIMCET 2027 NIMCET 2011 PYQ
Solution From (A):
$ \text{Some green are blue} \Rightarrow \text{intersection of green and blue is non–empty} $
So we can also say:
$ \text{Some blue are green} $
Therefore Conclusion I follows.
From (B):
$ \text{No blue is white} \Rightarrow \text{all blue are non–white} $
Combine with (A):
Those objects which are both green and blue are also not white.
So:
$ \text{Some green are not white} $
Therefore Conclusion III also follows.
For II (Some white are green) and IV (All white are green),
nothing in the statements links white to green positively. Both may or may not overlap, so these do not follow.
Hence only I and III are valid.

Solution Analyze:

Sponges ⊆ Clothes
Clothes ⊆ Liquids
Now check conclusions:
I. All liquids are sponges → FALSE.
Liquids include many other things. No reverse relation.
II. Some plastics are clothes → FALSE.
Plastics ⊆ Glasses but no link to Clothes.
(No intersection shown).
III. All glasses are plastics → FALSE.
Only Plastics ⊆ Glasses, not reverse.
IV. All liquids are clothes → FALSE.
Given: All clothes ⊆ liquids, reverse is NOT true.

Check conclusions:
I. Some shores are hotels → FALSE.
No link between shores and trees/hotels.
II. All beaches are shores → FALSE.
Given Shores ⊆ Beaches, reverse not true.
III. Some beaches are hotels → TRUE.
Some beaches are trees, and
Trees ⊆ Hotels ⇒ those beaches are hotels ✔️
IV. Some sands are trees → FALSE.
Sands ⊆ Beaches but no link sands ↔ trees.

Solution From I: All freshmen are human
From II: All students are human
From III: Some students think ⇒ therefore those students are humans who think.
Check each statement:
(1) All freshmen are students
→ NOT necessarily true. We only know freshmen ⊆ humans, students ⊆ humans. No link freshmen ⊆ students.
⇒ NOT a consequence.
(2) Some humans think
Since some students think and all students are humans ⇒ some humans think is TRUE.
⇒ CONSEQUENCE.
(3) No freshmen think
Nothing in the statements says freshmen do not think.
⇒ NOT a consequence.
(4) Some humans who think are not students
We only know some students think. We do NOT know that any thinker is outside students.
⇒ NOT a consequence.

Answer: (1) Some teachers are not Mathematicians — NOT valid.
Easy check:
Teacher ⇒ College Graduate, and no graduate is poor ⇒ Teachers are not poor → (4) valid .
All Poets are poor; graduates aren’t poor ⇒ Poets aren’t teachers → (3) valid .
Some Mathematicians are Poets ⇒ they’re poor ⇒ not graduates ⇒ not teachers → (2) valid .
(1) doesn’t follow: we’re told nothing about teachers vs mathematicians (and there might even be no teachers). Hence (1) is not a valid conclusion.
