Your band: Above average on this test's scale

Estimated IQ range: 110 to 126

This range reflects 20 questions and a margin of ±8 points. It places you on this test's own scale, not against the general population.

Results by pattern type

Pattern typeCorrectWhat it tests
Progression5 of 5Something changes by the same step across a row
Rotation4 of 5A shape turns by a fixed angle
Combination4 of 5Two cells combine into the third
Distribution3 of 5Each element appears once per row and column

You were strongest on Progression. Distribution cost you the most points: you missed 2 of 5, and in both you picked an option that repeated an element already in the row.

Every mistake, explained

Puzzle D-3 (Distribution) · You chose B · Correct answer: E

The rule. Each row and each column has one star, circle, and hexagon and one tiny, medium, and very large shape.

Why B looked right. This row already has a star.

Next time. List what each row already has, then pick the one value the row is missing.

Puzzle C-4 (Combination) · You chose A · Correct answer: C

The rule. The third panel in each row keeps the marks that appear in only one panel.

Why A looked right. It keeps every mark from both panels.

Next time. Compare the first two panels mark by mark, then test each rule on the third panel.

Your report explains every question you missed. Jordan's full report has 4 explanations; we show 2 here.
