Something to
come back to.
The certificate keeps a record of your estimate and your answers across four reasoning areas. The report helps you reflect on the choices behind them.
This exercise has not been standardized against a representative population. The certificate is a personal record.

Less left unexplained.
Choose a section to read its sample excerpt. Your own report follows your completed answers, including the questions you found difficult.
9 of 10 spatial answers were correct, compared with 6 of 10 applied answers.
A starting point for reflection on this attempt, not a permanent label.01Your reasoning profile
The overall result, with the details that a single number leaves out.
In this sample, spatial questions had the highest correct-answer rate. The participant answered 9 out of 10 correctly, compared with 6 out of 10 applied questions. These are observations about one attempt, not proof of a permanent difference in ability.
02Spatial reasoning
How you approached rotations, reflections and visual patterns.
The participant recognized most rotations and reflections. A useful next step is to trace a single distinctive point through a transformation, rather than trying to rotate the entire figure in your head at once.
03Numerical reasoning
The sequences and quantitative relationships you recognized.
Eight numerical answers were correct. On a sequence question, doubling a term without carrying over the changing addition produces a plausible but incomplete answer. Writing down the operation at each step makes that difference visible.
04Logical reasoning
How you worked with rules, evidence and what must follow.
Seven logical answers were correct. An important distinction to practice is between a conclusion that could be true and one that must be true. A single counterexample is enough to show that a conclusion is not guaranteed.
05Applied reasoning
Your approach to constraints and practical decisions.
Six applied answers were correct. Before choosing an arrangement, write every constraint separately. An option that meets most conditions is still invalid if it violates one. The report refers to the actual constraints and choices in the completed attempt.
06Where you did well
Patterns in your correct answers on this attempt.
The strongest observed performance in this sample was on spatial items. Correct responses across different visual question types are more informative than one lucky answer, but ten questions still provide only a limited view.
07Where to explore next
Specific question types to revisit, with useful approaches.
Revisit the questions you missed before taking the test again. Explain why the correct option works and why your original choice does not. Understanding the distinction is more useful than memorizing an answer letter.
08Your next steps
A short, practical plan for reflecting on your answers.
Choose one missed question. Reconstruct the reasoning without looking at the solution, then check each step. If you repeat this test, remember that familiarity with its items can raise your score. The result is not a diagnosis or a credential.
Not just what.
Why, and how next time.
Read the answer, a tempting wrong turn, and an approach you can use again. All three examples are available below.
Numerical reasoning3, 7, 16, 35, 74, ?
Double the current term, then add the next counting number, starting with +1: 3, 7, 16, 35, 74. What comes next?
- 3 × 2 + 1 = 7
- 7 × 2 + 2 = 16
- 16 × 2 + 3 = 35
- 35 × 2 + 4 = 74
- 74 × 2 + 5 = 153
The additions are +1, +2, +3 and +4. The next transition is 74×2+5=153.
148 doubles 74 but leaves out the changing addition. Recognizing part of a rule is not the same as applying the whole rule.
Write both parts of every transition and advance the changing part.
Logical reasoningWhat can you actually conclude?
Every club member plays chess. Some chess players compete nationally. What can be concluded about whether any club members compete nationally?
One possible arrangement: competitors can be outside the club.
National competitors could all be outside the club, or could include club members. Both arrangements satisfy the premises.
“Yes” assumes that two groups sharing a larger group must overlap. “None do” makes the opposite unsupported assumption.
Try to construct a counterexample before deciding that an overlap is guaranteed.
Spatial reasoningTwo transformations, one at a time.
At step 0, a marked arrow points up. Every step rotates the whole figure 90° clockwise. After every even-numbered step, reflect it top-to-bottom across a fixed horizontal line. Which complete figure appears at step 5?
The directions after full steps are right, up, right, up, right. At step 4 the whole figure is back at its starting position. The fifth clockwise turn points right and puts the original right-side mark below the arrow.
Ignoring the reflections happens to give the same final figure here: the two reflections cancel over four steps. Check the intermediate states to verify the stated rule.
Track both the arrow tip and the asymmetric mark; apply rotation before reflection on even steps.
