Diagnostic practice

Answers are checked on this device only, and the result is an educational practice band for that exercise, never a clinical, diagnostic, or IQ-style score.

Choose a section

This bank has 10 themed sections and 100 questions in total, ordered so the earlier sections are the gentler ones. Sit a single section, or work through the whole bank in one go. Nothing here is timed — the minutes are only a guide.

Section 1: Continuing simple sequences

Spot the single repeating or stepping rule and choose what comes next.

1. A sequence runs: circle, square, circle, square, circle. What comes next?
2. A shape repeats in three sizes: small, medium, large, small, medium. What comes next?
3. A letter sequence runs: A, C, E, G. Which letter comes next?
4. A star pattern grows: ★, ★★, ★★★. Which group comes next?
5. An arrow turns through the sequence: up, right, down, left, up, right. Which direction comes next?
6. A dot pattern runs: ●, ●, ○, ●, ●, ○, ●, ●. What comes next?
7. A letter sequence runs backwards through the alphabet: Z, X, V, T. Which letter comes next?
8. A symbol sequence runs: moon, star, sun, moon, star, sun, moon, star. What comes next?
9. A shape sequence gains one side each step: triangle, square, pentagon. Which shape comes next?
10. A dot pattern doubles each step: 1 dot, 2 dots, 4 dots, 8 dots. How many dots come next?
