Non-verbal reasoning tests a child's ability to recognise visual patterns, sequences, and spatial relationships — without words. TrueViQ covers 8 question types used in GL Assessment exams.
NVR can't be revised from a textbook — practice with the format is what builds confidence.
Every GL non-verbal reasoning question type — from figure sequences to cube nets — practised and explained.
Children learn to look for patterns in edges, shading, rotation, and symmetry — not guess.
Explanations show which visual properties change and which stay the same — helping children understand the underlying pattern.
Every TrueViQ NVR question falls into one of these categories.
Figure Sequences
Identifying the next shape in a visual pattern
Matrices
Completing a grid by finding the missing element
Odd One Out
Spotting the figure that breaks the pattern
Visual Analogies
Applying a transformation from one pair to another
Codes
Matching shapes to code labels based on properties
Reflection & Rotation
Identifying mirrored or rotated figures
Paper Folding
Predicting what a folded and punched paper looks like unfolded
Spatial Reasoning / Cube Nets
Matching 2D nets to 3D shapes
Three modes — each suited to a different stage of preparation.
Pick a specific pattern type — for example, just Matrices or just Paper Folding. Practise one type until your child feels confident.
Difficulty adjusts based on performance. More practice on question types where your child needs it most.
GL format includes NVR as a standalone section. Timed papers with instant marking and type-level breakdown.
GL Assessment tests non-verbal reasoning as a standalone paper. CEM exams generally do not include a dedicated NVR section, though some spatial skills may appear. Check your target school's exam format.
