Verbal Reasoning (VR)
Measure the ability to reason and solve problems using words, and language. Assesses understanding of word, relationships, identification of language patterns and the ability to draw logical conclusions from written information. Strong VR performance is closely linked with success in English and other humanities subjects.

(2) |
Non-Verbal Reasoning (VR)
Evaluates the ability to solve problems using shapes, patterns and diagrams instead of language. Assesses pattern recognition, visual logic and relationships between abstract shapes. This area reflects a student’s capacity to tackle new and unfamiliar problems using visual information.
|
|
(3) |
Quantitative Reasoning (QR)
Measure reasoning with numbers and numerical relationships. Focuses on number patterns, sequences and logical rules involving quantities. The emphasis is on problem-solving rather than curriculum-based mathematics.
|
|
(4) |
Spatial Ability (SA)
Assesses how well a student can visualize and understand spatial relationships, includes tasks involving mental rotation, recognizing relationship between 2D and 3D shapes and visualizing objects from different angles. Spatial reasoning strongly correlates with success in STEM subjects such as mathematics, science, engineering and design.

Non-Verbal Reasoning (NVR)
Use shape, patterns and diagrams to evaluate pattern recognition, spatial reasoning and abstract problem-solving. This helps schools understand how students tackle unfamiliar visual information.
|
|
(2) |
Vocabulary (Verbal Reasoning)
It assesses word recognition, word meaning and language-based reasoning. This indicates whether a student can manage English-Medium academic work.
|
|
(3) |
Mathematics (Numerical Reasoning)
It focuses on numbers, quantitative patterns, sequences and logical numerical relationships, with an emphasis on reasoning rather than curriculum-based mathematics.
|
