UPSSSC PET 2026 Question Paper (01-Nov-2026) (Shift-2)
The correct answer is

JMOQ

In an odd-one-out letter question, find the gap between consecutive letters of each group; three groups follow one rule and the fourth breaks it.

Step 1 — ACEG: A(1), C(3), E(5), G(7); gaps +2, +2, +2.

Step 2 — NPRT: N(14), P(16), R(18), T(20); gaps +2, +2, +2. BDFH: B(2), D(4), F(6), H(8); gaps +2, +2, +2.

Step 3 — JMOQ: J(10), M(13), O(15), Q(17); gaps +3, +2, +2. Only this group starts with a gap of three, so it differs from the other three groups, which all advance uniformly by two.

JMOQ option is correct.
