The test is divided by grade level, with the CogAT Level 8 being administered to 2nd graders. The most current version of the test, the CogAT Form 8, has three sections: Verbal, Nonverbal, and Quantitative. Each of these sections has three unique question types. The table below shows all nine question types:  \n\n| Verbal Battery | Nonverbal Battery | Quantitative Battery |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Picture Analogies | Figure Matrices | Number Analogies |\n| Sentence Completion | Figure Classification | Number Puzzles |\n| Picture Classification | Paper Folding | Number Series |\n\nYou can view a sample question from each battery below. Answers and explanations can be found at the end.

The correct answer is the baseball. In the top row, the first picture is a tennis racket. The second picture is a tennis ball. Both are used to play tennis, and when playing, you hit the ball with the racket.  \nThe bottom row should have the same relationship. The fi rst picture is a baseball bat. This means the second picture should be something else that you use to play baseball. It should also be what you hit with the bat. This makes the baseball the correct answer.  \nFigure Matrices: A. The correct answer is the grey triangle pointing to the right. In the top row, the first box has a white arrow pointing up. In the second box, there is a grey arrow pointing right. From the first box to the second, the arrow rotates on its side, and changes color from grey to white.  \nThe bottom row will have the same pattern. In the first box, there is a white triangle. The second box should have the triangle rotate on its side, and the color should change from white to grey.  \nNumber Series: D. The correct answer is 9 beads. From left to right, there are 1, 3, 5, and 7 beads. We can see that the pattern is adding 2 beads to every row. This means the correct answer will have 2 more beads than 7, making 9 beads the correct answer.  \nContinue Practicing with Elm Academy You can continue practicing with more free CogAT sample questions.
