What is CAT3?
CAT3 stands for “Cognitive Abilites Test, Third Edition.” The test as a whole assesses an individual’s ability to manipulate and reason with three different types of symbols: words, quantities and spatial patterns, each of which plays an important part in human thought. A section, called a test battery, of the complete CAT test is devoted to each of these ways of reasoning, and each battery is further divided into three sorts of test item that test different aspects of that style of reasoning.
