Last updated on May 15, 2025

The wrong term is a part of the alphabet series questions in the mental-ability section. In this type of question, an alphabetic sequence is given which contains a wrong term that we have to identify. The wrong term not follows the sequence. For example, ABD EFH IKL MNP QRT This is the most common for exam exams in RRB JE, NTPC, GROUP-D, and State government exams like UP- PET, UPRVUNL, RVUNL AE/JE, etc. For identifying the wrong term in an alphabet series we have to observe each word and its alphabet. First, write down the English alphabet with number sequencing and find the logical sequence in each term. If there is any term in a series that does not follow the sequence according to other terms this one is the wrong term in the given alphabetic series. For example, ABD EFH IKL MNP QRT in this series IKL is the wrong term because in term IKL ”K” does not follow the middle word sequence in each term.
