One app, every skill
Scholarship papers draw on all four areas, so preparing them separately wastes time.
Independent school entry
Scholarship test practice
Independent school scholarship tests vary by school, but the underlying skills rarely do: reasoning under time pressure, close reading, and pattern recognition. Cognora practises all of them.

Common questions
Do all scholarship tests look the same?
No. Formats differ between schools — always check the specific requirements with each school. The underlying reasoning skills overlap heavily, which is what Cognora builds.
When are scholarship tests held?
Typically in the year before entry, often February to May. Dates are set by each school.
