Preparation matters
You perform better when nothing surprises you. A matrix reasoning question is not hard because the shapes are strange; it is hard because, under a clock, you have to decide what to look at first. Learning to spot the right pattern in the first few seconds is what moves a score, and just the feeling of being prepared takes the edge off the clock.
Whichever publisher’s test you have been sent, the question in front of you will be a 3x3 grid of figures with one cell missing, and it will turn on one of ten things the eye can see change. This course is built around that one skill. Every pattern gets its own lesson, its own guided think-through and its own drill. Then it measures you: a quiz per chapter, a speed round where nothing tells you which pattern it is, and full sittings under the clock.
If your invitation names the test, the next lesson tells you what that name means and whether a more specific course here fits it better. If it names nothing, this is your course.
What you get
- The ten patterns, one lesson each. A simple, structured walk through every rule the tests use, in the order you should learn them. Rotation is open to everyone; the rest is full access.
- Hundreds of verified questions with explanations, a tactic for each pattern and a note on why the wrong options look right. The first three of every drill are open.
- Guided practice.“Now think like this”: three questions per pattern where the prompts come one at a time and the options only open at the end, so the thinking is trained, not just the answering. Full access.
- Every practice test. The untimed full test, the classic timed test, the twelve-question mock and the adaptive test. The first sitting of each is free; later sittings and the adaptive test are full access.
- The practical part. Which test you are facing, how it runs, how long you have, what to do on the day. Open to everyone.
Full access is $29 once for 12 months with a 30-day refund, and it covers every course on this site. What it includes.
