Free CogAT Test grade 2 (Level 8) Sample Exam

The CogAT is a cognitive abilities test used mostly as an admission exam into gifted schools and programs. The test is divided into three different sections known as batteries: Verbal battery, Nonverbal battery, and Quantitative battery. These batteries feature the following subtopics: Picture/Verbal analogies, Sentence Completion, Picture/Verbal Classification, Number Analogies, Number Series, Number Puzzles, Figure Matrices, Figure Classification, and Paper Folding. Each of these subtopics help develop a different skill and it is important to see all the different types of questions, their solutions, and the explanations to avoid having any surprises the day of the test. 

The primary levels of the CogAT test focus more on picture analogies and picture classification instead of their verbal equivalents. This is to make the questions more intuitive and easier to solve for children that are still learning to read. 

In addition to the CogAT, a new test has been released known as the CogAT Screening Form. The CogAT Screening Form consists of the first section in each of the batteries of the original CogAT test. That is to say, Picture/Verbal Analogies (depending on the grade), Number Analogies, and Figure Matrices. Make sure to check whether your child will be taking the CogAT or the CogAT Screening Form and the appropriate level of the test.

The questions in our CogAT (Cognitive Abilities Test) 2nd grade prep pack were written using the same format as in the real CogAT and can help you understand the test, as well as practice and locate the areas that need strengthening and familiarize yourself with the contents of the test. Before taking a test, it is best to have as much information available about the test as possible. This includes the structure of the test, the conditions (time constraint, difficulty, format), and more.

There are two norms used by the CogAT when scoring results. One of the norms, the age norm, is used to compare the performance in relation to other children of the same age. The CogAT also returns a raw score, which is later transformed into a Standard Age Score (also known as SAS).  

You can also check our website for more explanations about the norms, scoring method, contents, and answer any question you may have about the CogAT, or the CogAT Screening Form.
