Untimed practice
25 questions · Work at your own pace
Five questions in each section. Take time to apply the right rule, optionally record your confidence, and use the complete review to work through mistakes.
First sitting free · all results included
Watson–Glaser practice, with a 30-minute simulation.

Timed simulation
40 questions · 30-minute limit
Read the instructions before starting the clock. Our simulation includes 12 assumptions, 12 arguments and 16 conclusion questions: five inference, five deduction and six interpretation.
Both modes let you revisit answers before finishing. The timed sitting ends automatically when time runs out. Your free account saves your result and worked review.
Five sections. Five different reasoning rules.
A conclusion can be plausible without being certain. Read the instructions for each section carefully: the standard you are judging changes as you move through the practice.
Inference
Judge how likely a conclusion is, from true to false, using the facts and appropriate everyday knowledge.
Recognition of assumptions
Identify what a statement takes for granted, even when it does not say it directly.
Deduction
Decide whether a conclusion must follow from the statements given. Possibility alone is not enough.
Interpretation
Decide whether the evidence supports a conclusion beyond reasonable doubt.
Evaluation of arguments
Accept each argument’s factual claims as true, then judge whether it is important, directly relevant and supports its stated Yes or No position.
These section rules follow Pearson’s official Watson–Glaser practice instructions. Our question content is original.
Use your review to sharpen your reasoning.
Every question has a worked explanation. At the end, see where you were accurate and where a different reading of the evidence would help. If you record confidence, your review points you towards confident mistakes first.
- Your number correct out of 25 or 40, plus a section breakdown.
- Your answer, the correct answer and an explanation for every question.
- Sign in before starting to save your sitting and reopen its review.
Preparing for the official assessment
Pearson TalentLens lists Watson–Glaser as a 40-item assessment across five subtests, with an administration time of 30–40 minutes. Check your employer’s invitation for the timing and conditions that apply to you. Read Pearson’s assessment overview.
Our 40-question, 30-minute simulation follows the length and timing described by Clifford Chance’s recruitment guidance. Its question mix and navigation are our practice design; your employer’s setup may differ.
Standard and stretch are editorial labels for our original questions, not measured equivalents of official test difficulty. We are collecting practice evidence to assess difficulty; the questions have not been equated to the official assessment. Your practice accuracy does not establish an official percentile or predict whether you will pass.
For publisher familiarisation materials, visit Pearson TalentLens practice tests. Pearson also explains that its familiarisation items are not calibrated in the same way as live assessment items.
Questions about the practice
Can I practise with a full-length timer?
Yes. Choose a 40-question simulation with a 30-minute limit, or a shorter 25-question untimed practice. Both cover the five reasoning sections and include every worked explanation. Our content is original, and our simulation is not an official or equated Watson–Glaser test.
Do I need an account or payment to practise?
Create a free account before starting. Your first completed sitting is free: choose either the untimed practice or timed simulation. A Watson–Glaser pass unlocks further sittings in either mode: $19 for 7 days, $29 for 30 days, or $39 for 90 days, with no automatic renewal. All your results and worked explanations remain free to view.
When does the timer start and what happens when it ends?
You can read all section instructions before starting the timer. Once the timed simulation starts, the 30-minute timer continues while you work or leave the tab. At the deadline, the sitting ends automatically with your recorded answers. Your completed result is saved to your account. Our practice lets you go back and change answers before time expires; follow your employer’s own navigation rules in the real assessment.
Will I see different questions when I practise again?
The bank contains 80 original questions, with standard and stretch items across all five sections. Questions can repeat across sittings, and familiar questions may feel easier. Repeated practice scores should be interpreted in that context.
What does my score mean?
Your score is the number correct out of 25 in untimed practice or 40 in a timed simulation, with a breakdown by section. Compare the reasoning in your review before comparing scores from different modes or question sets. Standard and stretch are editorial difficulty labels; the questions have not been equated to the official assessment. Your score is not an official percentile, pass mark or prediction of an employer’s decision.
How does confidence help my practice?
You can optionally record your confidence before seeing an answer. The review highlights incorrect answers you marked with high confidence, so you can examine the reasoning rule you may have misunderstood. Confidence does not change your score.
