IPMAT Indore 2024 - VA Q61 Explanation

Explanation:

(b)

(a) rule the roost This option doesn't quite fit here. "Rule the roost" means to be in charge or control of a situation, but it doesn't convey the idea of acting in accordance with one's words or beliefs, which is what the Principal seems to be advising the candidates to do.

(b) walk the talk This option seems to be the best fit. "Walk the talk" means to act in accordance with one's words or beliefs, which aligns with the Principal's advice to the candidates to take action on issues like gender bias and inclusivity if they want to be taken seriously.

(c) read the lines. This is option doesn't make sense in this context. "Read the lines" usually refers to following a script or instructions, but it doesn't convey the idea of acting in accordance with one's words or beliefs, as the Principal seems to be advising the candidates to do.

(d) go around the bend. This option doesn't fit here. "Go around the bend" means to become mentally unstable or irrational, but it doesn't convey the idea of acting in accordance with one's words or beliefs, which is what the Principal seems to be advising the candidates to do.
