Frequently asked questions

CAT4 is a cognitive abilities test set by GL Assessment. It aims to reveal a child’s hidden potential by assessing their reasoning ability. There are CAT4 levels for different age groups.

Some selective independent schools use CAT4 to shortlist children for places. Many schools – both state and private – use CAT4 in early Year 7 to stream students into sets in core subjects.

Rurera offers comprehensive CAT4 preparation through expert-designed mock tests, practice questions, and detailed feedback. Our platform helps identify strengths and areas for improvement, providing personalized study plans to enhance your child's performance.

The CAT4 can be administered at various times throughout the academic year, depending on the school or institution’s schedule, but your child will likely take the test in the autumn term or early spring term in Year 6. Schools that use CAT4 for setting purposes often administer the test in September in Year 7.

Rurera employs several strategies to keep your child motivated, including interactive and engaging learning modules, gamified practice sessions, and regular progress tracking that highlights improvements and milestones.

The CAT4 evaluates four essential cognitive areas: Verbal Reasoning, which measures language and comprehension skills; Non-Verbal Reasoning, which assesses problem-solving with visual information; Quantitative Reasoning, which tests mathematical and numerical abilities; and Spatial Awareness, which examines understanding of spatial relationships and shapes.

CAT4 can be taken online or on paper, although most schools choose to use an online version. It's a non-adaptive test, meaning that all children taking the test at the same time will see the same questions.

The test typically takes between 1 to 2 hours to complete, with the exact duration depending on the specific format and the number of sections included. The time required may vary based on the complexity of the questions and the depth of each section.

Each school that administers the CAT4 determines its own pass marks. Generally, a score of 100 is viewed as average, 142 is at the very top end, and scores below 85 are considered low. For Year 7 candidates, many selective schools seek a standardized score of at least 115, and in some cases, even higher.

Yes, practice tests are available at Rurera for the CAT4. These tests are designed to simulate the actual exam conditions and help students familiarize themselves with the types of questions they will encounter. They provide valuable practice and can help identify areas for improvement.

The CAT4 test includes four key elements: Verbal Reasoning (understanding and using written concepts), Non-Verbal Reasoning (interpreting visual patterns and shapes), Quantitative Reasoning (solving numerical problems), and Spatial Awareness (visualizing and manipulating objects in space).

Familiarize your child with the test format, and use practice tests to build confidence. Focus on improving weaker areas, encourage problem-solving skills with puzzles, and maintain a balanced routine of study and rest. Provide positive support to keep them calm and motivated.

The CAT4 test is divided into several levels based on age groups, ranging from A to G:
  • Group A: For students aged 8 to 9
  • Group B: For students aged 9 to 10
  • Group C: For students aged 10 to 11
  • Group D: For students aged 11 to 12
  • Group E: For students aged 12 to 13
  • Level F: For students aged 13–15
  • Level G: For students aged 15+

Each group is tailored to the cognitive development appropriate for that age range, ensuring an accurate assessment of a student’s abilities.
