Wonderlic logic and patterns questions
Basic logic, spatial reasoning and pattern identification.
Which of these five is least like the other four?
What this type asks
Three of the content types Wonderlic names — basic logic, spatial reasoning, pattern identification — share this section because on the real test they share the same skill: seeing a rule quickly. Deductions from two statements, figures rotated among their mirror images, and sequences to continue. The figure items are generated, so every session draws new ones.
Now do it with the clock running.
50 questions in 12 minutes — 14.4 seconds each, which is the part no amount of untimed practice prepares you for.

Frequently asked
- How many logic and patterns questions are on the Wonderlic?
- Wonderlic, Inc. does not publish a breakdown by question type — only that the test is 50 questions in 12 minutes and that it includes this type. Any site that gives you an exact count for this section has made it up. The full-length test on this site deals the types evenly for that reason.
- Is this section timed?
- Not on this page. These sets are for learning the type — each answer comes with an explanation straight away. When you want the clock, the full-length test runs at 14.4 seconds a question.
- Are these real questions from the test?
- No. Every question here is original, written to the published format. The real item banks are confidential and nobody outside the publisher has them.
