Reverse-engineered from the real PI Cognitive Assessment.
Every question generator was built by analyzing real PI items, then matching their structure, difficulty curve, and trap reasoning. Not loose interpretations - precise replicas of the cognitive load you'll face.

Other Practice Sites Run Out. Ours Never Will.
Most PI practice sites sell a handful of static tests. You run out within days and end up memorizing answers instead of building real skills.

The research
Practice Works. The Research Proves It.
A meta-analysis of 134,436 candidates found that repeated practice on cognitive assessments leads to significant, measurable score gains.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
The PI cognitive test - formally the Predictive Index (PI) Cognitive Assessment - is a 12-minute, 50-question test covering numerical, verbal, and figural reasoning. Employers use it to evaluate a candidate's general cognitive ability, and practicing with realistic questions is the best way to prepare.
Every question is built by an engine that follows the exact rules, patterns, and difficulty of the real PI Cognitive Assessment, so each one looks and solves just like a question from the real test. The engine builds a brand-new set every time, which means unlimited, never-repeating practice across all three domains: numerical, verbal, and figural.
As close as practice gets. We match the published format exactly: 50 questions in 12 minutes, 4 answer options, and all 9 question types across numerical, verbal, and figural reasoning. Just as important, every question is built to the same patterns and difficulty as the real test, so it feels like test day, not just something similar.
Correct. Questions are generated from rules and parameters, not pulled from a list. Every session produces a unique combination. You can take tests daily for weeks and still get fresh questions each time.
Because our practice runs on a question engine, not a small static bank. Most sites hand-type a fixed set of questions and resell the same ones to everyone, which is costly to maintain and means you run out and start seeing repeats. Our engine builds unlimited, never-repeating questions to the real PI standard, so you get more practice for less, not a smaller product for a lower price.
There is no universal passing score - it depends on the role. The average raw score is about 20 out of 50, and roughly 27 out of 50 puts you in the top 20% of candidates. Employers compare your result against a target score for the specific job, so a good score is one that meets or beats that role's benchmark.
The average raw score is about 20 out of 50 correct, which corresponds to a scaled score of roughly 250 on the 100-450 range. Most candidates land between 17 and 23 correct, so getting even a few more right moves you well above average.
Yes. You can start practicing free right here - create an account and take a sample test in the real PI format at no cost. Because every test is generated fresh, you can keep practicing without running out of new questions.
The PI Cognitive Assessment is made by Predictive Index (PI). Predictive Index publishes two different tests: the Cognitive Assessment, which measures reasoning and learning speed, and the Behavioral Assessment, which measures personality and work style. This tool practices the cognitive one.
It is 50 questions in 12 minutes - about 14 seconds per question. The pace is deliberately tight, so the most effective preparation is timed practice in the same format, which is exactly what this tool provides.
Most candidates do not finish all 50 - the test is designed so that very few people answer every question in the 12 minutes. Accuracy counts more than completion, and there is no penalty for guessing, so it is better to answer carefully and make quick guesses on the rest. Practicing at the real pace is the best way to get faster.
