CogAT® CogAT® Practice Practice Test -Test Verbal - Figure Classification Analysis

TEST 9: FIGURE ANALYSIS The questions on this test are just like the sample below. Each question has a piece of paper that is folded and where holes are punched into it. The objective is to find out how the paper will look when it is unfolded. SAMPLE:

A

B

C

D

E

Look at the first square. It shows the way the paper looks before it was folded. The marks show where the middle of each side is, and the dotted line shows where the paper will be folded. The arrow shows the direction of the fold. In this example above, the paper will be folded in half with the top over the bottom. Next, look at the second square. The shaded area shows the paper after the folding is complete. The dotted lines show the paper size, prior to folding. The white circle shows where the paper has been punched. Finally, look at the answer choices below. The objective is to find what the paper will now look like when it is unfolded. Please note that the paper has been punched through the folded paper, through two layers. Thus, there must be two holes in the paper, when it is unfolded. Since the paper was folded straight down, the holes must be on top of one another. The hole was punched near the right edge, so the punched wholes must be on the right side. Find the place marked Test 9: Figure Analysis on your answer sheet. Look for the item that is marked as S, which is the sample question. Since the answer is B, fill in the answer space B in the row marked as S. Answer all of the questions on this test the same way. Try your best to answer each question.
