LinkedIn Pinpoint #757Answer & Analysis

Quick read: A classification puzzle — five specific examples of one broader category.

Fast strategy: Look for the narrowest category that fits all clues. Guessing too broadly (e.g., 'musical instruments' instead of 'types of guitar') will be marked wrong.

The answer is Types of pool. Use the table below to check each clue, then skim the compact FAQ for the quickest path to the connection.

Pinpoint 757 looked almost too simple at first.

The opening clue was Car. My brain did what it always does—grab the most obvious category and run with it. Vehicles. Transportation. Things with wheels.

So I guessed "Vehicles."

Not a great start, but fair enough. One word alone can point anywhere.

Now things got interesting.

Car + Dating. What on earth connects those two?

I quickly cycled through a few ideas:

Market — car market, dating market.

Game — car game, dating game.

And then… pool.

Car pool. Dating pool.

That one felt different. More natural. More common in everyday speech.

And most importantly, it didn't feel forced.

Correct on the second guess.

That's when the fun part began—watching the remaining clues confirm the theory one by one.

With the answer locked in, the next clue was Jury.

If you've ever heard courtroom terminology, that's a standard phrase. The group of potential jurors is literally called the jury pool. Perfect match.

At this point, it wasn't just fitting—it was stacking up beautifully. Biology 101. The total genetic diversity within a population.

The most everyday, obvious version of them all. Almost like a victory lap to close the puzzle.

Five clues. One shared word. All clean, common pairings.

That's when you know it's a classic compound-style Pinpoint.
