01Verbal Reasoning
The Verbal Reasoning battery of the CogAT tests how well you detect relationships among words and ideas. At upper levels the three subtests are Verbal Analogies, Sentence Completion, and Verbal Classification; at primary levels the same reasoning is presented through pictures. The items assume ordinary school vocabulary, so the score usually turns on the precision of the relationship you identify, not on rare definitions. Analogy (A : B :: C : ?).

The Quantitative Reasoning battery tests pattern-finding with numbers, not calculation speed. Upper-level subtests are Number Analogies, Number Puzzles, and Number Series; primary levels use pictured objects and simpler quantities. You must infer the rule that generates a set of numbers and apply it consistently. Number analogy (A : B :: C : ?).
380 words, about 2 min03Nonverbal Reasoning
This practice section develops reasoning with figures and spatial patterns; written descriptions add reading demands and are not a replica of an official visual battery. It contains Figure Matrices, Figure Classification, and Paper Folding. The challenge is to identify the rule that connects shapes and to ignore surface details that do not matter. Figure Matrices: In a 2×2 or 3×3 grid, track changes across each row and down each column.
