MAH MBA CET Sample Paper 2025

Eight people are sitting in a straight line. Let us number the positions as 1 to 8 from left to right. A is second to the right of C and third to the left of H. Moreover, H is not sitting at an end position. So, the possibilities for C, A and H are 2, 4, 7 or 1, 3, 6. If they are sitting at 2, 4,7, then D and G must be sitting at 5 and 6. Now, F is not sitting at an end position, so the only possible place for him will be 3. In this case E will have to sit at 1. But contradicts the given information. Hence, this is not possible. Thus, C, A and H must be sitting at 1, 3 and 6 respectively. D and G can be 4/5 or 7/8. But in case of 7/8, there won’t be more people to the right of G then his left. Hence G must be fourth, D must be fifth. E must be 2. B should be at 8 and F should be at 7. Thus, we will have the following arrangement

B is sitting second to the left of both A and E. Therefore, one among A and E must be facing the centre and the other must be facing away from the centre. It has been given that A is facing the centre. Therefore, E must be facing away from the centre.

(In the diagram, the persons facing the centre are indicated by green colour and the persons facing away from the centre are indicated by the red colour).

H is sitting to the left of both A and B. Therefore, B must be facing away from the centre.

D is sitting third to the right of E. G and E are not sitting adjacent to each other. Therefore, G must be sitting near D. H,D and G face the same direction. We also know that 4 persons face towards the centre and 4 persons face away from the centre. B and E face away from the centre. Therefore, H, D and G must be facing the centre.

C is not sitting adjacent to G. Therefore, F must be sitting adjacent to D. The final arrangement is as follows:

B is sitting third to the left of F. Therefore, option B is the right answer.

B is sitting second to the left of both A and E. Therefore, one among A and E must be facing the centre and the other must be facing away from the centre. It has been given that A is facing the centre. Therefore, E must be facing away from the centre.

(In the diagram, the persons facing the centre are indicated by green colour and the persons facing away from the centre are indicated by the red colour).

H is sitting to the left of both A and B. Therefore, B must be facing away from the centre.

D is sitting third to the right of E. G and E are not sitting adjacent to each other. Therefore, G must be sitting near D. H,D and G face the same direction. We also know that 4 persons face towards the centre and 4 persons face away from the centre. B and E face away from the centre. Therefore, H, D and G must be facing the centre.

C is not sitting adjacent to G. Therefore, F must be sitting adjacent to D. The final arrangement is as follows:

C is sitting opposite to D. Therefore, option C is the right answer.

B is sitting second to the left of both A and E. Therefore, one among A and E must be facing the centre and the other must be facing away from the centre. It has been given that A is facing the centre. Therefore, E must be facing away from the centre.

(In the diagram, the persons facing the centre are indicated by green colour and the persons facing away from the centre are indicated by the red colour).

H is sitting to the left of both A and B. Therefore, B must be facing away from the centre.

D is sitting third to the right of E. G and E are not sitting adjacent to each other. Therefore, G must be sitting near D. H,D and G face the same direction. We also know that 4 persons face towards the centre and 4 persons face away from the centre. B and E face away from the centre. Therefore, H, D and G must be facing the centre.

C is not sitting adjacent to G. Therefore, F must be sitting adjacent to D. The final arrangement is as follows:

F is sitting second to the right of D. Therefore, option E is the right answer.

We know that Tushar is from Guwahati and Umesh is from Delhi.
Now Pawan visited Allahabad so, Pawan cannot be from Allahabad. Thus, one among, Rohit, Sanjay and Vivek has to be from Allahabad. However, from 3 we can rule out Rohit. Thus, either Sanjay or Vivek will be from Allahabad. However, from 2 and 5 we can infer that Sanjay is from Hyderabad and visited Lucknow. Thus, Vivek must be from Allahabad. One among Rohit and Pawan will be from Bhopal and the other one will be from Lucknow.
Now we know that Pawan visited Allahabad, Sanjay visited Lucknow, Rohit visited Guwahati and Vivek visited Delhi. Thus one among Tushar and Umesh will visit Hyderabad and the other one will visit Bhopal.
Thus we have the following table

Thus we have the following table

All options represent the person and the city he visited. This is not followed in option A. Hence A is the odd one out.
