What to Expect on the OLSAT Level F Test? A Quick Overview

- It includes 72 questions covering Verbal and Nonverbal Reasoning. These two categories are further divided into subcategories with multiple question types, as you can see in the table below.
- The time limit is 60 minutes.
- There is no penalty for wrong answers, so it’s better to take an educated guess than skip questions.
- Gifted and advanced programs usually require scores in the 95th percentile and above.

OLSAT Level F Figural Reasoning Practice Questions
Figural Analogies
Identify the relationship between the pairs of shapes below.
Show Answer
The correct answer is option C.
In the first row, the geometric shapes alternate between filled and empty without changing their orientation.
Similarly, in the second row, the geometric shapes also alternate between filled and empty, resembling option C.
Pattern Matrix
The pictures in the box go together in a certain way. Choose the picture that goes in the empty space.
Show Answer
The correct answer is option C.
In each column, the white L-shaped figure is rotating in an anticlockwise direction, while the small C-shapes are rotating in a clockwise direction and changing their orientation randomly.
Similarly, in the third column, the white L-shaped figure is rotating in an anticlockwise direction from one box to another, while the small C-shape is rotating in a clockwise direction and changes its orientation.
The only answer that fits this is C.
Note that answer D is incorrect since the small C-shape is in the same orientation as in the second column.
Figural Series
Find the next shape in the pattern.
Show Answer
The correct answer is option D.
In this sequence, the square with the left-bottom small filled square is rotated in a clockwise direction by 45 degrees (which is half of a right angle), moving from left to right each time.
Meanwhile, the small filled circle is rotated in an anticlockwise direction per sector as shown in the figure.
Nonverbal reasoning questions can be tricky, especially if your child sees them for the first time on test day.
Because these question types aren’t usually taught in school, they can feel unfamiliar and even a little intimidating at first.
With the right practice, though, children quickly learn how to spot patterns, think visually, and approach them with confidence.
Our OLSAT Level F practice package includes three full-length practice tests plus targeted drills for every nonverbal question type, so your child can go into the test feeling prepared and self-assured.
OLSAT Level F Quantitative Reasoning Practice Questions
Numeric Inference
Each group of numbers in the boxes follows the same pattern. Figure out the rule used to relate the numbers in each box, then determine which number should replace the question mark in the last box:
Show Answer
The correct answer is 10.
The pattern is:
First number ÷ 43 = Second number
Considering 1st box, we have:
258 ÷ 43 = 6
Considering the 2nd box, we have:
172 ÷ 43 = 4
Therefore, for the 3rd box,
430 ÷ 43 = ? = 10
Since these pair of numbers include division of a big number, the fastest way to solve this question is by plugging in each of the answer choices until you reach the correct one.
Number Matrix
The numbers in the box are arranged according to a rule. Choose the correct number to fill in the missing spot by identifying the rule.
Show Answer
The correct answer is 2.
Row Pattern:
The third number is obtained by finding the difference between the first two numbers.
Row 1: 84 – 68 = 16
Row 2: 30 – 28 = ?
Row 3: 54 – 40 = 14
Column Pattern:
The third number is obtained by finding the difference between the first and second numbers.
Column 1: 68 – 28 = 40
Column 2: 84 – 30 = 54
Column 3: 16 – ? = 14
Both the row pattern and the column pattern consistently lead to the same solution.
From the row pattern, 30 – 28 = 2
From the column pattern, 16 – ? = 14, which means:
? = 2
Therefore, the correct choice is 2.
Number Series
You’re presented with a series of numbers that follow a specific pattern. Your goal is to figure out the rule and complete the sequence by finding the missing number.
5, 0.5, 0.05, 0.005, 0.0005, 0.00005, ?
Show Answer
The correct answer is C. 0.000005.
Each number is divided by 10 to get the next number:
5 ÷ 10 = 0.5
0.5 ÷ 10 = 0.05
0.05 ÷ 10 = 0.005
0.005 ÷ 10 = 0.0005
0.0005 ÷ 10 = 0.00005
So, continuing the pattern:
0.00005 ÷ 10 = 0.000005
OLSAT Level F Verbal Comprehension Practice Questions
Sentence Completion
Choose the correct word/words to complete a sentence.
Maria’s passion is photography. As she witnessed the _____ of the spectacular sunset over the mountains, she began to _____ images with her new camera.
Show Answer
The correct answer is C.
The pair ‘splendor … capture’ is the most appropriate because the sentence describes someone with a passion for photography experiencing a sunset, an ideal photographic subject.
Splendor appropriately describes the impressive visual quality of a spectacular sunset, while capture is precisely what a photographer would do when seeing something worth photographing.
Sentence Arrangement
If the words below were arranged to make the best sentence, with which letter would the last word of the sentence begin?
quickly through forest moved the animals wild the
Show Answer
The correct answer is F.
The best arrangement of these words creates “The wild animals moved quickly through the forest.” In this arrangement, the last word would be “forest,” which begins with the letter F.

Antonyms
In this question, you need to identify the word that has the opposite meaning of the given word.
The opposite of adhere is:
Show Answer
The correct answer is option D. Detach.
The word adhere means to stick firmly to a surface or to follow a rule, belief, or commitment closely. Its best opposite is detach, which means to separate or unfasten something from what it’s attached to.
For example, a label that adheres to a box is removed when it is detached. Only detach directly counters the act of sticking or holding firmly.
OLSAT Level F Verbal Reasoning Practice Questions
Verbal Analogies
This question tests the ability to find a relationship between two words and find a second pair of words that is related in the same way.
Chef is to the kitchen as the pilot is to _______.
Show Answer
The correct answer is E. Cockpit.
The analogy compares a professional to the place where they perform their main function. A chef works in a kitchen, just as a pilot operates from the cockpit.
Option A, the engine, is a part of the plane but not the main working space.
Option B, plane, is the larger vehicle, not the specific area of operation.
Option C, the airport, is a location, but not where the pilot works while flying.
Option D, cabin, is the passenger area, not the pilot’s space.
Only the cockpit corresponds directly to the kitchen in the analogy, both are the specific workspaces for their respective professionals.
Verbal Classification
In this question, you need to look at a group of words and figure out which one does not belong.
Show Answer
The correct answer is D.
All the words except Hinder describe actions that support or make something easier.
Assist, Help, Facilitate, and Encourage all involve aiding or promoting something. Hinder, however, means to prevent or make something more difficult, which is the opposite of the other words.
Inference
In this question, you will be given a logical argument, and you will have to determine the correct conclusion based on the argument.
Anna speaks more languages than Bella. Chris speaks fewer languages than Bella but more than Richard. Richard speaks fewer languages than David, who speaks fewer than Bella.
Which of the following is true?
Show Answer
The correct answer is B.
We are told:
- Anna > Bella
- Chris < Bella but Chris > Richard
- Richard < David < Bella
Let’s arrange the order from most to least based on these clues:
Anna > Bella > David > Chris > Richard
Option A is incorrect — Richard speaks the fewest, not Bella.
Option B is correct — Richard speaks the fewest languages.
Option C is incorrect — Richard is not the most; he’s the lowest.
Option D is incorrect — Chris speaks fewer languages than David
Option E is incorrect — David speaks fewer than Bella, and Bella speaks fewer than Anna, so David < Anna.
