CogAT Test Grade 2 - 100+ Practice Questions

The second-grade CogAT expands upon concepts taught in preceding grades while incorporating two essential skills unrelated to test content. Unlike their kindergarten and first-grade counterparts, second graders are required to independently read the test questions instead of relying on a proctor. This alteration places a notable emphasis on reading abilities, particularly evident in the Verbal Analogy subtest. Moreover, there is a modification in the sentence completion segment, where students are tasked with supplying the correct word for blank spaces rather than interpreting figures or images.

The number of questions on the Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) can vary depending on the level of the test being administered. For Grade Level 2, which typically corresponds to the CogAT Form 7 or Form 8 Level 8 (the numbers correspond to grade levels), the test is structured into three batteries: Verbal, Quantitative, and Non-Verbal. Each battery is designed to assess different aspects of a student's cognitive abilities.

For the CogAT Level 8 (Grade 2), each battery typically consists of the following:

• Verbal Battery: Around 24 questions
• Quantitative Battery: Around 24 questions
• Non-Verbal Battery: Around 24 questions

This brings the total to approximately 72 questions for the entire test. However, it's important to note that these numbers can vary slightly depending on the specific form of the CogAT and the administration (e.g., standard testing conditions, use of a screening form, or online versus paper administration).

Each battery is timed, with sections usually allowing students about 10-12 minutes to complete. The total testing time, including instructions and breaks, can be around 90 minutes to 2 hours, but this may vary.

Schools and districts may choose to administer one, two, or all three batteries of the CogAT, depending on their assessment needs. Therefore, the total number of questions a student will face can vary based on local decisions regarding the use of the CogAT.
