Based on the English alphabetical order, three of the following four are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which is the one that does not belong to that group?

We analyze the gap (interval) between the letters in each cluster using their alphabetical positions ($A=1, B=2, \dots, Z=26$).

The Common Pattern found in the first three groups:

1. 1st to 2nd Letter: Subtract 5 ($-5$)
2. 2nd to 3rd Letter: Add 11 ($+11$)
3. 3rd to 4th Letter: Subtract 3 ($-3$)

Let's check each option against this pattern.

Option	Cluster	Positions	Gap 1 ($-5$)	Gap 2 ($+11$)	Gap 3 ($-3$)	Result
1	WRCZ	$23, 18, 3, 26$	$23 \to 18$ (R)	$18 \to 3$ (C)$^*$	$3 \to 26$ (Z)$^{**}$	Same
2	SNYV	$19, 14, 25, 22$	$19 \to 14$ (N)	$14 \to 25$ (Y)	$25 \to 22$ (V)	Same
3	BWHE	$2, 23, 8, 5$	$2 \to 23$ (W)$^{**}$	$23 \to 8$ (H)$^*$	$8 \to 5$ (E)	Same
4	GBNJ	$7, 2, 14, 10$	$7 \to 2$ (B)	$2 \to 14$ (N)	$14 \to 10$ (J)	Different

Note on wrapping:

• Gap 2 for WRCZ: $18 + 11 = 29$. Since alphabet has 26 letters, $29 - 26 = 3$ (C).
• Gap 1 for BWHE: $2 - 5 = -3$. Wrapping back from Z, $26 - 3 = 23$ (W).

The Error in GBNJ

• Expected Pattern: $B (2) + 11$ should be M (13). Then $M (13) - 3$ should be J (10).
• Actual Group: It uses N (14) instead of M. The gap used is $+12$ and $-4$.
