STAB
These brain teasers rely on your ability to recognize groups of common attributes. For each of these puzzles you'll need to figure out why the words or letters are grouped as they are. Sometimes you will be asked to pick the odd-one-out or to place a new word into the correct group.
Five of the six words below share a common characteristic. Can you figure out which word does not belong with the others?
STAB
STARS
GHOST
HIGH
DESIST
EFFORT
Answer
EFFORT does not belong with the others because the other five words all begin with two consecutive letters of the alphabet and end with two consecutive letters of the alphabet.

| it's also the only one that begins with a vowel - the first one i thought of before looking at the answer; or the only one with double letters ('FF') - the second one i thought of before looking. i honestly never thought of the answer! much more clevererer than i thunk!  |

| I honestly don't think it was so hard. I time myself on all these and it took me only 37 seconds. It was quite clever though. All those ST's alerted me to it. |
