Cubiks Tests: Overview and Free Practice (2022 Updated)
Ability, personality, and situational judgment tests are the three main types of Cubiks. This article will help you better know about each test, especially suggesting learning materials for cognitive assessments.
What are Cubiks tests?
Cubik tests contain both cognitive and personality assessments that help screen and select the most appropriate candidates for organizations. Cubiks has become a reliable test provider for well-known employers such as KPMG, Shell, BMW, Deutsche Bank, EY, NHS, etc. Cubiks tests are divided into 3 categories:
- Logiks Intermediate
- Logiks Advanced
- Talogy Factors
- PAPI (PAPI N & PAPI I)



Cubiks Logiks tests
Cubik Logiks tests measure the ability to process and analyze different sorts of information (numerical, verbal, and logical data), which are categorized into 2 levels: Intermediate and Advanced. Let’s see how the two levels are different from each other.
Cubiks Logiks (Intermediate)
Logiks Intermediate or Logiks General test consists of 50 questions in 3 sections: Verbal, Numerical and Abstract, with a time limit of 12 minutes (4 minutes/section).
Verbal section (4 minutes, 24 questions)
Verbal section in the Logiks Intermediate test is quite simple, mainly measuring candidates’ English language use. There are different types of questions: Analogy, Antonym/ Synonym, and Syllogism.
Here’s an example of an Analogy question:

Answer: A train runs on a track, as a car runs on a road.
Here’s an example of an Antonym question:

Answer: Simple is the opposite of Complex.
Here’s an example of a Syllogism question:

Other examples for your practice:
Numerical section (4 minutes, 16 questions)
Numerical section in the Logiks Intermediate test involves basic calculations (addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication). You have about 15 seconds for one question and are allowed to use a calculator during the test.
Here are some examples in the numerical section:

Answer: (1460 : 30) x 6 = 292 Euros

Source: Cubiks
Answer: 37 + 4 = 52 – 11
Other examples for your practice:
Abstract section (4 minutes, 10 questions)
Abstract section in the Logiks Intermediate test requires you to identify patterns in sequences and select the shape that completes them correctly.
Here’s an example in the abstract section:

Source: Cubiks
Other examples for your practice:
Question 1:

Answer: C
Explanation: At each step of the sequence, the shapes are rotating 90 degrees in a clockwise direction. The option B is wrong because the base of the triangle is on the wrong side.
Question 2:

Answer: B
Explanation: The first two steps are a complete and a semi-complete square – a four-sided shape. The next two steps are a complete and a semi-complete triangle – a three-sided shape. Hence, the following shape in the sequence would be a semi-complete two-sided shape. The inner shapes alternate complete and semi-complete, so the next step is the return of the complete shape.

Cubiks logiks (Advanced)
Similar to Logik Intermediate, Logiks Advanced tests also assess your verbal, numerical and abstract reasoning, but with a higher difficulty level. The Logik Advanced tests involve 4 types of tests:

Logiks verbal
Logiks Verbal test requires you to read through some passages and answer questions about the information within the text. There are 36 questions under a time limit of 25 minutes. You have about 40 seconds for one question.

Answer: The option in blue color
Explanation: The last sentence states, “Therefore, Veganism shouldn’t be seen as a quick-fix diet but a seriously weighed-up lifestyle choice based on knowledge and awareness of the movement”.
Here we have “a seriously weighed up lifestyle choice based on knowledge and awareness of the movement” = “properly researched alongside professional medical advice”.

Answer: D
Explanation:
The percentage of total contributed income, including donated objects accounted for by the National Flora Museum in Year 3 was: 4,623/21,033 x 100% = 21.98%
So, the correct answer is D.

The best way to handle this question type is to get familiar with it.
Data Interpretation questions are also included in MConsultingPrep’s Numerical Test Package. We have designed hundreds of questions, with data presented in different forms (tables, graphs, bars, charts, and caselets). Practicing challenging questions with complicated data will gradually help improve your numeracy skills.
Here’s a free test for you to try. This test consists of various question types, including Data Interpretation one.
Logiks abstract
Logiks Abstract test requires you to find out the pattern of a sequence and select the shape that has the same pattern. There are 30 questions under a time limit of 15 minutes. You have about 30 seconds for one question.

Question 1:

Answer: D
Explanation: The dot in the top left-hand quarter goes to the opposite corner, the dot in the top right-hand quarter moves one corner anticlockwise at every stage, the dot in the bottom left-hand quarter goes between the top two corners, and the dot in the bottom right-hand quarter moves one corner anticlockwise at every stage.
Question 2:

Answer: E
Explanation: The number of sides decreases by one at every stage. In the clockwise direction, sections 1, 2, 3 disappear one by one at each stage. Therefore, in the next stage, the one that should appear would be section 4.

Logiks General (Advanced)
Logiks General (Advanced) has 30 questions under a time limit of 20 minutes, combining questions in Logiks Verbal, Numerical, Abstract tests. This test includes 3 sections as follows.
Cubiks personality assessment
Cubiks personality questionnaires aim to find out candidates’ preferences and behaviors in the workplace. There are 2 types, including PAPI and Talogy Factors.
PAPI
PAPI – Personality and Preference Inventory tests consist of 2 types: PAPI I and PAPI N

Here’re are some examples from Cubiks.

Talogy Factors
Talogy Factors test lasts for approximately 10 minutes and contains 54 statements. Candidates need to rate on a scale (1-7), showing how much they agree or disagree with the given statement.
This test is developed based on the Big Five personality assessment model. In addition to the five factors, Cubiks add a new factor, building an all-around work-based personality assessment.
Here’s an example question in the Talogy Factors test.

Source: Cubiks
Being honest also helps you and your potential employer find out whether the company and you are suitable for each other. That might be an important factor when you consider working at an organization. The more common you have in common with the company, the longer way you can go with it.
Cubiks situational judgment tests
Cubiks situational judgment tests involve a series of decision-making scenarios related to specific job roles. There will be 4 choices – 4 decisions that you need to select. For each decision, you need to RATE and RANK based on effectiveness.
1 = counterproductive, 2 = ineffective, 3 = slightly effective, 4 = effective, and 5 = highly effective
↑= Most effective, ↓= Least effective
