NON-VERBAL REASONING SAMPLE TEST
This test provides examples of the types of questions that may be on the NNAT
test. Please remember that it is for practice only. It is not being taken under
examination conditions, and therefore although you are given a score, this is just to
satisfy your curiosity and to give you a target to aim for. This test will test your
non-verbal reasoning. This test is also sometimes called a diagrammatic or
spatial ability test.
In the first example the top row of four boxes make up a series from left to right.
You have to decide which of the 5 boxes underneath, marked A to E, will be the
next in the sequence. For example in the first example, the top four boxes have 1,
2 , 3 , and 4 dots. The next box in the sequence will have 5 dots, which is box D, so
you would circle B for your answer.
Score
As mentioned before, this test is for practice only, chiefly because the test was not taken under
proper test conditions e.g. in a silent room with no disturbances. Your performance can also
be distorted if you have a cold, have not eaten properly, or have not slept well.
