The 12-Day Study Schedule is designed to improve which two cognitive skills?

This item is about the kinds of thinking the 12-Day Study Schedule is designed to improve. The two cognitive skills emphasized are logic-based reasoning and figural reasoning. Logic-based reasoning involves working through information step by step, recognizing rules or relationships, and drawing conclusions or determining what must be true from given data. The schedule builds this by presenting problems that require you to test hypotheses, apply logical rules, and deduce correct outcomes. Figural reasoning centers on shapes and visual-spatial relationships. It asks you to identify patterns, transformations (such as rotations or reflections), and how figures relate to one another in space. The 12-day plan targets quick, accurate pattern detection and manipulation of abstract figures, which strengthens this skill. Other options describe different kinds of tasks (verbal or numerical content, memory-based challenges, or situational judgment) that aren’t the primary focus of a program aimed at boosting abstract logic and visual pattern reasoning.
