Dear readers,

This quiz consists of questions from
various past papers of MBA entrance exams. Leave your answers/ responses in the
comments section below and soon we’ll let you know the correct answers!

Directions
(1-3): Carefully read the statements in the questions below and arrange them in
a logical order.

1:

1.
So too it is impossible for there to be any propositions of ethics.
Propositions can express nothing that is higher.

2.
The sense of the world must lie outside the world. In the world everything is
as it is, and everything happens as it does happen: in it no value exists – and
if it did exist it would have no value. If there is any value that does have
value, it must lie outside the whole sphere of what happens and is the case.
For all that happens and is the case is accidental. What makes it
non-accidental cannot lie within the world, since if it did it would itself be
accidental. It must lie outside the world.

3.
It is clear that ethics cannot be put into words. Ethics is transcendental.

4.

The fact all contribute only to setting the problem, not to its solution.

How things are in the world is a matter of complete indifference for what is
higher. God does not reveal himself in the world.

To view the world sub specie aeterni is to view it as a whole- a limited whole.
Feeling the world as a limited whole- it is this that is mystical.

4.
It is not how things are in the world that is mystical, but that it
exists.

2-1-4-3       (D) 3-1-4-2     (E) 3-4-1-2

3: 

1.
The operation is what has to be done to one proposition in order to make other
out of it.

2.
Structure of proposition stands in internal relations to one another.

3.
In order to give prominence to these internal relations we can adopt the
following mode of expression: we can represent a proposition as the result of
an operation that produces it out of other propositions (which are bases of the
operation).

4.
An operation is the expression of a relation between the structures of its
result and of its bases. 

(A) 1-2-3-4       (B) 2-3-4-1       (C)

Directions
(9-10): Go through the caselets below and answer the questions that follow.

According
to recent reports, CEOs of large organisations are paid more than CEOs of small
organisations. It does not seem fair that just because a CEO is heading a big
organisation s/he should be paid more. CEOs‟ salary should be related to
performance, especially growth in terms of sales and profits. Of course, big
organisations are more complex than the small, but all CEOs require significant
amount of energy and time in managing organisations. There is no proof that
CEOs of big organisations are more stressed than CEOs of small organisations.
All CEOs should be paid according to their performance.

9:

(A) CEOs should be paid equally.

(B) Managing big organisation is more
challenging than small.

(C) CEOs, who travel more should be paid
more.

(D) If CEOs of small companies perform
well, the company would become big and so would be CEOs‟ salary.

(E) Highly qualified CEOs should be paid
more because they have acquired difficult education.
