Free CogAT practice test for Grade 2CogAT Level 8
Grade 2 children sit CogAT Level 8, the last level with no reading. Some number puzzles become number sentences with a missing number, and those have four choices instead of three. Many school districts screen for gifted and talented programs in Grade 2, so for many children this is the one that counts.

Tips
Getting ready for Grade 2
- Practice number sentences like 4 + ? = 9. Undo the step: 9 take away 4.
- In shape grids, name the change in the top row, then make only that change.
- Sit a whole battery at least once, so 40 minutes of focus feels normal.
