Free sample tests are a good start. When a question still does not click, upload it in your browser and get the answer in seconds with the rule behind it explained step by step.
Choose ReasonEra if you want every answer explained: upload any abstract, logical or inductive question, see the answer, and learn the rule behind it.
Choose Practice4Me if you want free sample tests, printable PDFs and a wide range of free guides across aptitude, personality, situational judgement and civil service tests.

A sample test with an answer key tells you whether you were right. It does not always tell you why. ReasonEra works on the exact question you are stuck on and explains the movement, rotation or colour rule behind the answer, so the next question is easier. A published benchmark from ReasonEra reports specialised models outperforming the general models it tested, among them GPT-4o, Claude and Gemini.
What ReasonEra offers that suits this kind of preparation.
Two modes let you tune the help: a bare answer to challenge yourself, or a step-by-step breakdown to learn a new rule.
Upload a screenshot or photo of a question from any practice material you are allowed to use, not only from one site.
Upload a question and read the answer almost immediately, with the rule laid out underneath.
ReasonEra is built only for pre-employment reasoning and aptitude tests, with its strongest focus on abstract, logical and inductive puzzles, and we maintain and develop the model continuously.
After three free trials, one 49 € payment covers every supported test for two weeks.
ReasonEra runs in your browser on desktop or mobile, and the site is available in English, Swedish, French, German, Dutch, Spanish, Danish, Italian and Polish.
Practice4Me is free and broad. It is stronger in these areas.
Its practice tests, sample questions and printable PDFs are free to use, which makes it an easy place to start.
Its site covers aptitude tests, many personality questionnaires, situational judgement tests and civil service exams.
It offers printable PDF tests with answers, useful if you prefer to practise on paper.
It lists guides to hiring processes at major employers and to tests from many assessment providers.
Free practice plus explanation. Work through free sample questions first. When one does not click, upload it to ReasonEra, see the rule, and move on.
Use material you are allowed to use. Upload questions from practice material you have access to and the right to use, such as free sample tests, official practice questions and your own notes.
When one test covers many skills. ReasonEra covers numerical, verbal and reasoning questions, so it can help in each section, while a library adds the full-length timing practice.
