✍️ Sample NNAT Questions & Answers

1. What is the best approach when you encounter an NNAT question that seems unusually difficult?
✓ Use process of elimination to remove wrong answers, then make your best guess and move on

The NNAT has no wrong-answer penalty, so eliminating obvious distractors and guessing improves your expected score.

2. What is the most common error in visual memory tasks?
✓ Confusing the orientation or position of elements within the figure

Spatial relationships and orientations are often the most difficult aspects to remember accurately.

3. What comes next in the series? 1, 4, 2, 8, 3, 12, __
✓ 4

Two interleaved sequences: odd positions 1, 2, 3, 4, ... and even positions 4, 8, 12, ...; the 7th term is 4.

4. A border pattern around a rectangle uses: square corner → circle → square corner → circle. One circle is missing from the middle of the right side. What fills the gap?
✓ Circle

The repeating unit is square corner–circle, so the gap between two corners on a side must be a circle.

5. Shapes rotate across rows and change color down columns. What must the answer have?
✓ Correct rotation for its row AND correct color for its column

The answer must satisfy all rules simultaneously.

6. Which term describes two shapes that are exactly the same size and shape?
✓ Congruent

Congruent shapes are identical in size and shape, even if they have been rotated or flipped.
