Abstract reasoning assessments look at how well you solve new and unfamiliar problems.
Employers often use them alongside verbal and numerical reasoning to understand how quickly people can learn and adapt. Because they rely less on prior knowledge, familiarity with the experience is the most useful preparation.
How to Prepare
Get Familiar with the Format
Taking the practice tests is the best way to know what to expect, so that nothing about the real assessment is a surprise.
Stay Calm When It Feels Hard
These assessments are designed to stretch you. If a question feels difficult, that is normal, so keep going rather than losing confidence.
Practise in Realistic Conditions
Take the practice tests somewhere quiet, in one go, as you would the real assessment.
Free Practice Tests
Practice tests give you a feel for the experience before you take a real assessment. Each opens in a new tab.
Note: Podium do not offer any feedback on the practice tests. We do not provide answers, scores, or solutions to the questions presented in these practice tests.
