ABN AMRO assessment analogies preparation
By the TestPrep editorial team · Updated
Prepare with the right focus first
If you are preparing for ABN AMRO, start by checking which assessment parts are mentioned in your invitation email. That message usually explains whether you need to practice only cognitive tasks or also additional personality or behavioral assessments.
For the analogies module, the main goal is to recognize how two words or concepts are related and apply the same logic to a new pair. A steady preparation plan works better than trying to cover everything at once.
This page is aimed at candidates who want efficient preparation for the ABN AMRO assessment process, including the Cubiks and Harver formats that may be used.

What this module trains
Analogies are a verbal reasoning exercise. You look at the relationship in a word pair and choose the answer option that follows the same pattern.
The relationship can be based on meaning, function, category, or another clear connection. The task stays simple in structure, but it rewards careful reading and quick recognition of patterns.
In ABN AMRO assessments, analogies may appear alongside other cognitive ability topics such as number sequences, figure sequences, numerical reasoning, and exclusion. Preparing for analogies separately helps you build confidence before you move into the wider test mix.
A practical checklist for calm preparation
Use a short, focused routine rather than long, unfocused sessions. Start with the essentials and build from there.
- Check your invitation email first so you know which assessment platform and components apply to you.
- Practice a small set of analogies to understand common relationship types before increasing speed.
- Review mistakes carefully to see whether you missed the meaning, the category, or the function of the words.
- Mix in timed practice once the logic feels familiar, so you are ready for the pace of the test.
This approach keeps preparation efficient and helps you prioritize what matters most for the assessment.
How to use practice effectively
Begin with untimed questions to make the relationship pattern clear. Once that feels natural, move to timed sets so you can work under pressure without losing accuracy.
If you are preparing for both Cubiks and Harver, keep your practice broad enough to cover the common verbal and reasoning styles used by these platforms. That makes the same study time useful across the assessment formats ABN AMRO may use.
A published free practice test is available for this language and category, which can be a good starting point before you move into fuller preparation.
