We used the CogAT practice tests and I would definitely recommend it to other parents. I liked that my child had both the timed and step-by-step options when taking a practice test.

I studied with the NNAT pack and I really liked it. It felt similar to the real test. It was good practice and I can’t think of anything I would change.

Dina (aged 9)

We got the OLSAT tests. Our child took the test at the end of January. She enjoyed preparing and thought the questions were challenging.

While the KBIT Test has several uses, here we will be discussing its use in identifying gifted and talented children.

KBIT-2 Test Content

The KBIT takes between 15-30 minutes and consists of a verbal and a nonverbal section. The Verbal section is comprised of two subtests: Verbal Knowledge and Riddles. These two sections assess a person’s word knowledge, reasoning ability, verbal concept formation, and a range of general information. The Nonverbal section is comprised of the Matrices subtest and assesses one’s ability to solve new problems by evaluating one’s ability to recognize relationship and solve visual analogies.

KBIT-2 Score Interpretation

Three scores are generated by the KBIT-2 Test:

Verbal (assesses crystallized ability)
Nonverbal (assesses fluid reasoning)
Overall IQ composite

The Composite IQ score is generally what people are referring to when discussing a person’s IQ. This score is based on the verbal and nonverbal subtests of the KBIT Test. The average IQ score ranges from 90-110. Click here to learn more about KBIT Test Scores.
