Z, W, T, Q, ?

This question was previously asked in
SSC CGL 2025 Tier 1 Question Paper (25-Sep-2025) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

N

Write the position of each letter in the alphabet: Z = 26, W = 23, T = 20, Q = 17.

Each term is obtained by subtracting 3 from the previous term: 26 - 3 = 23, 23 - 3 = 20, 20 - 3 = 17.

So the next position is 17 - 3 = 14, which is the letter N.

Hence, the answer is N.
