Updated 2026 | Trusted by 7,000+ CAT4 Candidates
CAT4 Levels A and B are taken in Year 4 and Year 5, when children meet reasoning questions that look nothing like their schoolwork. Because the CAT4 doesn’t test what your child has learned in class, the best preparation is practice with the real question types. Our PrepPack gives your child exactly that, with realistic full-length tests, quizzes, video lessons and clear explanations, so they walk into the test calm, familiar with the format and ready to perform at their best.
- Total of 550+ practice questions
(across quizzes & full-length tests) - 1 General CAT4 study guide
- 1 Score guide
- 8 instructional videos

CAT4 Level A and B Frequently Asked Questions
The Cognitive Abilities Test (or CAT4) is a cognitive test developed by GL Assessment to support schools in the understanding of students’ individual abilities and academic potential. In addition, the CAT4 is widely used as an entrance exam to many private and public schools in the UK and Ireland as well as schools around the world. CAT4 Level A is taken in Year 4 (ages 8–9) and Level B in Year 5 (ages 9–10).
The CAT4 levels A and B cover the same four areas:
- Quantitative Reasoning-Number Series and Number Analogies
- Verbal Reasoning-Verbal Classification and Verbal Analogies
- Non-Verbal Reasoning-Figure Classification and Figure Matrices
- Spatial Ability-Figure Analysis and Figure Recognition
The combined A-B structure helps students strengthen core CAT4 reasoning skills before progressing to more advanced difficulty. Revisiting Level A concepts alongside Level B questions supports confidence, accuracy, and reasoning consistency. It also creates a smoother transition between difficulty levels while giving students broader exposure to the types of thinking CAT4 is designed to measure.
Your child can practise and retake all the materials as often as they like during the 3-month access period.
Two short sessions per week support steady reasoning improvement.
Families value the clear explanations, teacher-created content, and confidence-building approach.
“The way questions were explained made a huge difference. My son finally understood what the test was asking.”
