ABN AMRO Figure Sets Explained
Learn what ABN AMRO figure sets measure, how the sequence works, and what to check in each question before you answer under time pressure.
Figure Sets in the ABN AMRO Assessment
This module explains the figure sets part of the ABN AMRO assessment in a practical way. You work with visual sequences and look for the rule that connects one figure to the next.
The task is designed to measure abstract reasoning. You are expected to observe changes step by step, compare the figures carefully, and choose the option that best continues the pattern.
Because ABN AMRO may use Cubiks or Harver assessments, the exact layout can vary. The underlying skill is the same: recognize the pattern quickly and stay accurate under time pressure.

What to Check in Each Sequence
A useful checklist starts with the most visible features. Look at shape, rotation, direction, number of elements, size, fill, and position before you decide on the next figure.
Then compare the changes across the sequence. One element may shift each step, or several features may move in a fixed order. The goal is to identify a consistent rule rather than rely on a guess.
If two answer options seem close, return to the sequence and check for a detail that changes in the same way every time. Small differences often decide the correct answer.
A Practical Way to Approach the Module
Start by scanning the full sequence once without rushing. This gives you a first impression of whether the figures are changing by rotation, movement, addition, subtraction, or another visual rule.
Next, compare each step in order and note what stays the same. Stable features can be just as important as the changing ones, especially when the pattern is built around one repeating movement.
Use the answer choices to confirm your idea. Eliminate options that break the pattern, then check the remaining ones against the sequence again before selecting your final answer.
How This Fits the ABN AMRO Practice Package
The figure sets module is part of a broader package for ABN AMRO candidates. It sits alongside other common assessment areas such as numerical reasoning, number sequences, and analogies, so it helps build the broader reasoning skills used in online testing.
The practice is suitable for assessments from Cubiks and Harver, including formats linked to Logiks Advanced and Cubiks Logiks General (Intermediate). That makes it a practical way to prepare for the types of cognitive tasks often used in selection processes.
