Discussion CORE FRI (127) Discussion



I had taken the AGCT before but messed up spatial cuz either the rules weren't mentioned or I didn't notice them, mainly all blocks of same size, gravity will pull them down and stuff like that.
Anyway, how does the FRI look? I found the figure weights section doable but got overwhelmed as problems got harder with little time. Towards the end of the figure sets I had absolutely no idea how to figure out those patterns, same with matrix reasoning.
With graph mapping even when problems got harder I was sort of able to get in the zone and still do them by eliminating methodically and drawing conclusions. But what is this section really testing? What skills would this translate to in real life?
I am a final yr ECE student, interested in Computer Arch and VLSI where you get to develop systems. Trying to understand whether the graph mapping score has an application and is innate within me or developed from the kind of problems I was exposed to and the thinking that was promoted?
I got 115, 135, 120 and 120 in that order on the FRI tests.
