Link Swipe practice
Verbal reasoning · 15 questions · 6 minutes
Test Partnership describes the task as: Decide whether each pair of words are synonyms, antonyms, or neither.
This page plays it at the real length, with questions that adapt to your answers.
- A card shows two words.
- Swipe right if they mean almost the same, left if they mean almost the opposite, and down if they have some other relationship (or none).
- On a keyboard, use the right, left and down arrow keys.

What Link Swipe measures
Link Swipe is one of Test Partnership's two verbal reasoning games. Test Partnership lists it at 15 questions in 6 minutes and says it assesses lexical knowledge, processing verbal information and grammatical sensitivity. Like every MindmetriQ game, it adapts: harder or easier questions follow your answers, with a short time limit on each question.
How this practice version works
Our 300 word pairs are original and split evenly between the three answers, from everyday words to advanced vocabulary. Each card has 24 seconds, and you can add 10 seconds up to three times in a game. Test Partnership publishes the total time but not the limit per question, so we split it evenly. Difficulty runs from level 1 to 5: one step up after a right answer, one step down after a wrong one. Your first full game is free; the results show accuracy, average time and the highest level you reached.
How to do well
Related is not the same as similar: doctor and hospital belong together, but they are neither synonyms nor opposites, so they go down.
Link Swipe questions
What counts as "other" in Link Swipe?
Any pair that is neither close in meaning nor close to opposite, such as a tool and what it is used for (hammer and nail) or a place and who works there.
How many Link Swipe questions are there?
Test Partnership lists 15 questions in 6 minutes. Our game uses the same count and time.
