The Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) is one of the most widely recognized assessments used by schools to identify gifted and talented students. It evaluates a child’s verbal, quantitative, and non-verbal reasoning abilities, helping parents and educators understand their cognitive strengths. A high CogAT score can open doors to advanced learning programs and gifted education opportunities.

The Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) is a standardized test that measures a student's reasoning skills in three areas: verbal, quantitative, and nonverbal. It is used to help teachers and school staff identify students who may need enrichment programs or gifted education.
