Very bad design.

First, there's no "thing that gets taken away" consistently. Within the first row, the square gets taken away and replaced by a triangle, then the triangle gets taken away and the circle remains. There is no consistent theme here.

Compare it with the third row: a star is added and nothing is taken away in the second figure. This makes the third row pattern different from the first. In the first row, something is taken away and replaced by something else, then something is taken away. In the third row, nothing is taken away but a star is added.

whatever shape doesn't change is what's left. In the first only the circle doesn't change, in the second only the inner circle (the gap in the outer circle changes) doesn't change, and in the third, only the cube

It isn't things that are being taken away, it is what they have in common. In the first row, the only thing that is common to the first two, is the circle. In the second row, the only thing common is the dot in the centre - although the circle with a break is common, it is rotated, so not the same. In the final row it is only the hexagon that is common to the first and second picture.

The answer is A :

- The thing that changes always get's taken away at the end -> this eliminate the posibilities BCD

now choosing from A E F :

- always there is a shape that does not change in a row -> only hexagon is possible -> A

Find what's common in columns one and two of each row. In the first row it's the circle. In row 2 it's the dot, and in row 3 it's the hexagon.

A, hexagon. Only the hexagon is common to columns 1 and 2 of row 3.
