The Cognitive Abilities Test Fourth Edition (CAT4) is one of the most popular reasoning skills tests for pupils in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Provided by GL Assessment, the test is designed to measure cognitive reasoning skills without focusing on reading comprehension or arithmetical skills. This makes the students’ previous academic knowledge less critical. The test is comprised of the following sections:

The test is also widely used as part of the admission process to many luxurious schools around the UK and Ireland as well as to various international schools around the world. Level G of the CAT4 is the highest level of difficulty for this test. It is designated for school year 11 and above (Y11+), catering to children between 14 and 17+. Level G is the most commonly administered level for admission purposes worldwide due to its high complexity and difficulty compared to the lower levels of the test. For this reason, it is highly recommended to obtain proper preparation.

The correct answer is B-12.
First, you must find a connection between the first pair of numbers. The simplest connections are additions and subtractions, however it does not fit both pairs, as: 96-73=23, however, 72-73≠17. This connection does not match both pairs and therefore is incorrect. Another possible connection can involve multiplication or division. 96 is not divisible by 23, thus you need to find a divisor for 96 that will result in a quotient close to 23. Few divisors of 96 are: 96÷2=48 96÷3=32 96÷4=24 24 is the successor of 23, and the best option from the options above. Therefore, we can phrase the connection between 96 and 23 as: 96÷4-1=23 This connection also matches the second pair, as 72÷4-1=17, and therefore it is correct. Applying it to 52 yields 52÷4-1=12, which is the correct answer.

The correct answer is B - roofer. These are all professions related to the construction industry. "Profession" is incorrect because that is the name of the category, rather than a member of that category. "Worker" is also incorrect, because it is too general and not a specific member of the category. Although “Baker” is a profession, it is not in the construction industry, and therefore it is incorrect.

Getting familiar with the complex test structure and different question types can increase your confidence and make you feel a lot more comfortable facing challenges during the actual test.
As practicing ahead reduces anxiety, it also improves the accuracy of the test in reflecting your actual ability. In addition, if you are to take the CAT4 exam as part of an admission process, preparing in advance can give you a crucial advantage over other students and boost your enrollment chances.
