- PDF sample test for offline practice.
Part 1
Question #1 – Figure Classification
The Figure Classification questions show three pictures that share a connection or a characteristic. Choose the answer that shares the same connection/characteristic from the answer choices.
Show Correct Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is D.
Each image contains a container with a red ball inside. The red ball is always aligned horizontally, regardless of the position of the container.
Only option D meets the criteria, therefore, it is the correct answer.
Question #2 – Figure Classification
Show Correct Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is B.
In this question, we can see that:
- The number of dots in each figure is equal to the number of corners of the shape.
- The shading of each figure is different from each other.
Options A, C, and E can be eliminated as the number of dots is not equal to the number of corners of the shape.
Option D can be eliminated as shading of the shape is already available in the given figure.
Therefore, answer choice B is the correct answer.
Question #3 – Figure Matrices
Figure Matrix questions are either 2×2 or 3×3 matrices comprised of different pictures. In each row and/or column the pictures change the same way or follow the same rule. Choose an answer that goes in the empty box in the matrix following the same rule.
Show Correct Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is D.
Identify the image that completes the pattern by examining how the series of shapes changes across the rows and down the columns within the matrix.
The direction in which you examine the shapes depends on where you can most easily visualize the relationship between the shapes.
Across the row, the figure in the third column is the combination of figures in the first and second columns.
In row 3, when we combine the shapes in the first and second columns, it will form a shape similar to the one at option D.
Therefore, the correct answer is D.
How These Practice Questions Are Made
Each question is created step by step to give your child the best possible preparation for the CAT4:
1. Based on Official Examples – The process begins with collecting official CAT4 sample questions and demos, so practice feels just like the real test.
2. Matched to Every Question Type – Each type is carefully matched to the format, structure, and difficulty your child will face.
3. Written to Mirror the Actual Test – New items work the same way as the real test and come with clear, child-friendly explanations to guide learning.
4. Reviewed by a Second Expert – Another teacher or test specialist checks every question to ensure it is accurate and easy to understand.
5. Improved with Feedback – Feedback from parents and students is used to make the practice even more effective over time.
This way, your child walks into the test feeling prepared, confident, and ready to do their best.
Part 2
Question #4 – Verbal Classification
Each question provides three words that are alike in some way. Decide how they are alike, and choose the word that belongs in the same group as the first three words.
windshield | tire | door
Show Correct Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is E. brakes.
Each of the three given items is found in/part of a car.
So, we need to find another item in the answer choices that is also part of a car or is found in a car.
The only answer that fits this is E. brakes.
Question #5 – Verbal Analogies
The first pair of words go together in a certain way. Choose the word that goes together with the third word similarly.
nourish → food : educate → ?
Show Correct Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is D. knowledge.
The analogy shows an action and its primary result. Nourishing is providing food for a person, just as educating is providing knowledge.
Question #6 – Verbal Analogies
carriage→ horse : trailer→ ?
Show Correct Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is A. truck.
A carriage is pulled by a horse. A trailer is pulled by a truck.
In this case, the first word (a noun) is pulled by the second word (a noun).
Question #7 – Number Analogies
Each question provides two pairs of numbers with a certain mathematical connection and another number that shares that connection with one of the answer choices. Find the missing number for the third pair.
[22 → 8] [24 → 9] [14 → ?]
Show Correct Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: D. 4
On the first pair, we get from 22 to 8 by subtracting 14 (22 – 14 = 8) or by dividing by 2 and then subtracting 3 (22/2 – 3 = 11 – 3 = 8).
Now, let’s check the second pair.
Subtracting 14 from 24 doesn’t give 11, so it must be the second connection.
Indeed, dividing 24 by 2 and subtracting 3 gives 9:
24/2 – 3 = 12 – 3 = 9
Let’s apply this connection to the third pair to find the missing number.
14/2 – 3 = 7 – 3 = 4
So, the correct answer is D.4
Many students find Number Analogy questions tricky since the connections between the pair of numbers are not straightforward and take time to figure out.
The best way to tackle this challenge is through practice. The more your child practices, the quicker they’ll recognize patterns and solve these questions accurately.
The complete practice package offers over 80 such questions, giving your child plenty of opportunities to sharpen their skills and improve.
Part 3
Question #8 – Number Series
Each question provides a series of numbers with a rule. Use the rule to determine which number will come next in the series.
1 9 5 13 9 17 13 ?
Show Correct Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: C. 21
In the series, the next number is obtained by adding 8 and subtracting 4 from the previous number alternatively.
The pattern is +8, -4, +8, -4, …
Let’s see the complete series:
1+8=9, 9-4=5, 5+8=13, 13-4=9, 9+8=17, 17-4=13, and 13+8=21.
Question #9 – Figure Analysis
Each question shows a paper folded several times and then punched with holes.
The answer choices contain unfolded papers with punched-in holes. You need to determine which of the answer choices is the final product of the unfolded punched-in paper.
Show Correct Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is B.
As shown in the illustration, the paper is first folded diagonally towards the lower-left corner, forming a right-angled triangle. The upper-left section of this triangle is then folded downward, creating a smaller layered section.
Two holes are punched horizontally near the folded edge. Since the paper has been folded twice, each punch passes through four layers.
When the paper is unfolded along the second fold, it returns to a right-angled triangular shape. At this stage, the holes are reflected across the horizontal fold line, producing four holes.
When the paper is fully unfolded, the holes are reflected again across the diagonal fold line. This results in a total of eight holes arranged in a clockwise pattern along a left-to-right diagonal, matching the diagram shown in Option B.
Therefore, the correct answer is Option B.
Question #8 – Figure Recognition
Choose the answer choice that contains the given shape. The shape must keep its size and orientation.
