About the Verbal Analogy Test

Analogies test how well you see relationships between words. A pair such as big : large sets up a synonym relation, so small needs little, not huge. Other questions use opposites, cause and effect, whole and part, category and example, or a thing and its use.

There is no time limit, but answering briskly keeps the result honest. Answer with a click or the keys 1 to 4 (or A to D). Your result is the number correct out of 16 with a percentage.
