This person reasons formally and numerically at a high level, and does it without leaning on mental imagery. That's a real finding. A single score would have hidden it.

What we actually measure

Intelligence isn't one thing. Your test covers six separate skills, and your report scores each one on its own.

Patterns12 questions

Picture grids where you work out the rule and pick the missing piece. It's reasoning with patterns you've never seen, and six of these come from a published puzzle set.

Number sense10 questions

Number sequences built on simple and combined rules. Holding a few things in mind at once.

Word logic10 questions

Analogies that ask how two ideas relate. Everyday words, no big vocabulary needed.

Spatial thinking10 questions

Turning and comparing shapes in your head. People who otherwise score alike often differ most here.

Deduction10 questions

Logic in plain sentences. What has to follow, and what only seems to.

Odd one out8 questions

Spotting the one thing in a group that doesn't fit with the rest.

★★★★★

Finally one that does not feel like a 2009 popup ad. Seeing my six skills side by side told me something I did not know about myself.

★★★★★

I took three of these in a week. This is the only one where I could see exactly how the score was calculated.

★★★★★

My daughter and I both took it and compared profiles over dinner. Worth it just for that conversation.
