Elements is adaptive, it gets significantly harder as you get questions right. Our AI handles the toughest 3x3 matrices with 14+ options instantly.
| Provider | Korn Ferry (formerly Talent Q) |
| Focus | Mid-Level to Senior / Highly Qualified Positions |
| Question Types | Logical (3x3 Matrices), Numerical, and Verbal |
| Difficulty | Highly Adaptive with strict time limits per question. |
Unlike standard tests with 4 or 5 options, Korn Ferry Elements Logical gives you up to 14 options for each matrix. The chance of guessing correctly is incredibly small. You must know the underlying logic.
If you answer correctly, the next question gets harder. ReasonEra handles the "High Difficulty" tier questions (which involve complex layering and conditional rules) just as easily as the simple ones.
There is no overall timer. You have 75 seconds per Logical question, or 90/75 seconds for Numerical data. This is barely enough time to read the options. Our AI gives you the answer in 2 seconds.
Assesses your ability to see logical patterns. You are presented with a 3x3 matrix where symbols change based on complex rules across rows and columns. 12 questions, 75 seconds each. Up to 14 options.
Complex calculations based on large data tables. Often requires multiple steps to reach an answer among many distractors. 12 questions. 90s for a new table, 75s for follow-ups.
Advanced reading comprehension testing your ability to draw deep conclusions from complex texts. 15 questions. 75s for a new text, 60s for follow-ups.
Checking tests (finding errors in lists) belong to the easier Aspects suite. Elements replaces checking with the highly complex Logical matrix test.
Don't let adaptive difficulty filter you out.

Elements is a suite of ability tests by Korn Ferry (formerly Talent Q) designed for mid-level to senior roles. It includes highly adaptive Numerical, Verbal, and Logical (3x3 matrix) tests.
It is adaptive, meaning questions get harder as you answer correctly. Furthermore, it features an unusually high number of answer options (often 12-14), making it nearly impossible to guess correctly using elimination alone.
There is no overall time limit. Instead, each individual question has a strict limit. For example, in Logical, you have 75 seconds per question. In Numerical, 90 seconds for a new table and 75 seconds for follow-ups.
