CogAT 7th Grade Practice Test
If you and your child have been curious about the types of questions that will be on the 7th-grade CogAT, here are some examples! These sample questions should give you a clearer understanding of the quantitative, verbal, and non-verbal skills your child should concentrate on and display during the exam. All the sample questions closely resemble the most current version of the CogAT, known as “Forms 7 and 8.”
1) Quantitative Battery: Number Puzzles
Number puzzles on the CogAT typically assess a student’s quantitative reasoning skills. For a 7th grader, these puzzles may involve various mathematical operations, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division, applied to a series of numbers. Students have to decipher the operations and apply them to solve the puzzle.
Example #1:
In this section, you will be given a mathematical equation. Choose the answer that should replace the ? or ∂ the symbol.
4 + 0.25 = 4 + ?⁄4
a. 5 b. 4 c. 3 d. 2 e. 1
2) Non-Verbal Battery: Figure Classification
CogAT Figure Classification is a type of cognitive assessment question that evaluates a student’s abstract reasoning abilities. This type of question assesses a student’s ability to identify patterns, relationships, and similarities among various geometric figures.
In the CogAT Figure Classification subtest, the child examines three figures on the left with a specific relationship. The child then selects an answer on the right that mirrors the relationship found in the initial three figures. As the questions become more challenging, the three figures appear at the top, and the answer choices are presented below, following the same reasoning pattern.
Example #2:
Parent say to your child: The first 3 figures on the left (or, on top) relate to each other in some way. Find a figure to the right of the line (or, below the line) that goes with the first 3 figures in exactly the same way.
3) Verbal Battery: Verbal Analogy
CogAT Verbal Analogy assesses a student’s verbal reasoning abilities, particularly their ability to recognize and understand relationships between words. These questions can involve various types of relationships, including synonyms, antonyms, part-whole relationships, and more.
Example #3:
The first two words in the sentences below go together in a certain way. choose the answer that goes with the third word in the sentence the same way that the first and second words go together.
Obnoxious is to pleasant as radiant is to ______.
A. dull B. bright C. loud D. quiet E. soft
4) Quantitative Battery: Number Series
CogAT Number Series questions assess a student’s ability to recognize and extend numerical patterns or sequences. Number Series questions are to assess a student’s ability to think critically, recognize mathematical patterns, and apply logical reasoning to solve numerical problems. These questions can vary in complexity, with more challenging sequences involving multiple operations or more intricate patterns.
Example #4:
Look at the numbers in each row below. There is a rule that governs the order in which the numbers occur in the series. Figure out the rule and then choose the number that comes next from the answer choices below.
153 116 122 153 116 ____
A. 120 B. 121 C. 122 D. 123 E. 124
5) Non-Verbal Battery: Paper Folding
CogAT Paper Folding questions assess a student’s spatial reasoning abilities, mental imagery, and understanding of geometric transformations. These questions can vary in complexity, with more advanced questions involving multiple folds and intricate patterns.
Example #5:
On the top row, you will see how a square piece of paper is folded sometimes once, sometimes twice, sometimes three times. Holes are then punched after the paper has been folded. Choose the answer in the second row that shows how the folded piece of paper would look after it is unfolded.
Answers:
1) e
2) C – One horizontal line, three small triangles looking up, down and to the right
3) A
4) C – Repeat first three numbers
5) C
