What is the CAT4 Test?

The CAT4 test (or cognitive abilities test) is an assessment that gives the teacher or school detailed information about a student’s true academic potential.
It is a more in-depth curriculum-based test that assesses their cognitive abilities, including focus, attention to detail, logic, and reasoning.
The Cognitive Abilities Test helps the teacher or school get a broader view of each student, their comprehension ability, and their learning capacity. The end result is that the teacher can support and push challenging or challenged students to reach their full potential by using the appropriate teaching aids and pace.
The CAT4 involves several tests, including verbal reasoning (verbal), quantitative reasoning (numbers), shapes and patterns (non-verbal reasoning), and spatial ability.
Teachers use the CAT4 to accurately identify learning preferences and group students with similar learning challenges or potentials to help them grow together. This ensures that no student is left behind.

What to Expect on the CAT4 Test?

Students or employees that take the CAT4 test should expect questions of varying lengths, the shortest being 8 minutes and the longest at 10 minutes.
Each module is divided into four sections, including verbal, non-verbal, numbers, and spatial. The verbal reasoning modules consist of three parts; they are:
- Verbal classification involves choosing the answer that best suits a set of target words. It consists of 24 questions and is answered in 8 minutes.
- Verbal analogies involve answering 24 pairs of word analogy questions in 8 minutes.
- Number analogies are the last part of the verbal reasoning test and consist of 18 questions that are answered in 10 minutes.
Non-verbal reasoning modules consist of two sections. They are:
- Figure Classification is where the student selects the image best suited to a set of target images. It consists of 24 questions for 10 minutes.
- Figure matrices are 24 questions in 10 minutes where the student selects the best answer to complete 2 by 2 or 3 by 3 grids.
The quantitative reasoning or numbers test consists of three sections, including;
- Number series and number analogies involve completing a set of number sequences and consist of 18 questions in 8 minutes.
- The spatial modules test the student's ability to solve complex dimensional problems by imagining, transforming, and manipulating images and consist of figure analysis and figure recognition. There are no wrong answers. It is just a test.

Which Employers Use the CAT4 Test?

Schools, teachers, and employers in the education sector use the CAT4 test to assess a student’s ability, capability, and potential.
Furthermore, schools in the United States and the United Kingdom use this to measure academic potential and provide appropriate education support and guides to the student.

CAT4 Sample Questions

Figure Classification

Select the correct answer from options (a) to (e), which shape is most similar to the first three shapes?

Correct Answer: A

Explanation: The shape has four sides and is fully shaded, like in the images above. Figures b) and e) are not four-sided figures, d) is a four-sided figure but is not shaded; and c) is an abstract figure and does not match the shapes above.

Figure Matrices

Choose the images a), b), c), and d) that belong with the bottom image, as the upper pictures belong together.

Correct Answer: A

Explanation: While (a) and (b) look alike, take a closer look at the color of the triangle. Images c) and d) are totally different and do not look similar to the sample image in the upper right-hand box.

Verbal Classification

In verbal classification, the aim is for the student to appropriately according to a single-word answer that qualifies objects in a group, as seen in the example below.

In each of these questions, there are three words in bold type. These three words are similar in some way. Decide how they are the same. Then choose the word from the answer choices that goes with the first three words.

A. Purple

B. Yellow

C. Color

D. Orange

E. Paint

Correct Answer: C - Color

Explanation: The student could opt for Paint, but in this case, the words – purple, yellow, and orange are typically referred to as colors.

Verbal Analogies

In verbal analogies, the student must work out which answer pairs perfectly with the given word from A to E.

Choose from options A to E which word best complements the third word.

Spoon → Cutlery : Red → ?

A. Color

B. Cloth

C. Rainbow

D. Paint

Correct Answer: A

Explanation: The analogy is spoon is to cutlery as red are to color. However, a student can immediately think of red as a paint for the wall, but you must look at the first half to fully understand the best answer for the second.

Number Analogies

These are basic math questions where the student must logically derive a method from the sequence to come up with the answer.

[40 → 4] [60 → 6 ] [ 80 → ? ]

A. 10

B. 8

C. 12

D. 7

E. 16

Correct answer is B

Explanation: From the analogies, it is clear that 10 is the number used in dividing the digits on the left. The student must successfully choose whether it is addition, subtraction, division, or multiplication before solving the question.

Number Series

Students must work out which number follows the last digit and choose the best answer from the options below.

Complete the series: 49, 42, 35, 28, -----

A 30

B 25

C 21

D 14

E 7

Correct Answer is C – 21

Explanation: The numbers are multiples of 7.

Figure Analysis

Choose the best answer from options a) to d) when the paper is unfolded?

Correct Answer: A

Explanation: This is tricky as the initial paper does not have a hole in it, but the student must cleverly work out why a circle appears and then unfold it mentally.

Figure Recognition

Find the odd shape from the image below.

Correct Answer: C

Explanation: All the shapes are four-sided except for c, which is a triangle with three sides.
