  • Finding patterns
  • Attention to detail
02 · Difficulty and question format

Difficulty and question format

Under 8

A shorter set of 30 questions, selected in the age window before starting.

Ages 8–10

The full set of 60 questions, scored using the selected age group.

Ages 10+

The full set of 60 questions, with a separate result table for this group.

These are the existing age-based formats, rather than easy, medium and hard switches. The full test groups tasks into series that involve comparing and checking visual features.

03 · How to take the test

How to take the test

  4. Read the result and discuss the patterns your child noticed.
04 · Understanding your result

Understanding your result

The service counts answers and displays an estimate from its age table for this attempt. Tiredness, guessing and familiarity can affect it. It does not determine your child’s educational future or replace a professional assessment.

FAQ

Questions and answers

How many questions are there?

The under-8 format loads 30 questions. Ages 8–10 and 10+ load the full set of 60 questions.

How long do I have?

The current player has a 20-minute countdown. When time runs out, the interface offers a link to your result.

Can I help my child?

Explain the controls if needed. Helping solve the questions means the result no longer reflects an independent attempt.

Is this an Eysenck test?

This test uses visual pictures and matrices. A text-based Eysenck test is a different format.

Is the result a precise intelligence measurement?

It is an estimate within the website’s tasks. Professional interpretation requires a suitable instrument, its norms and appropriate testing conditions.

Is the test free? Do I need to register?

You can start the test and see your result for free without registering. Sign in if you want to save attempts in My results.

Can I take the test again?

Yes, open the test page again. Familiarity with the questions can influence another attempt, so a repeat result is not an independent assessment.
