ABN AMRO Figure Sets Preparation Guide
Prepare for ABN AMRO figure sets with calm, focused practice. Learn what to prioritize first and build confidence for Cubiks and Harver assessments.
Prepare in a calm, focused way
ABN AMRO assessment invitations are shared by email, so the first priority is to check your message carefully and see which test parts apply to you. For figure sets, the most useful preparation is steady practice with shape sequences and pattern rules rather than trying to cover everything at once.
This guide is designed for candidates who want to build confidence efficiently. The figure sets module supports abstract reasoning practice that is relevant to ABN AMRO assessments delivered through Cubiks and Harver.
A clear starting point helps: learn how to compare one figure to the next, notice one change at a time, and keep your pace controlled under time pressure.

How figure sets are usually approached
Figure sequences ask you to identify the rule behind a changing set of shapes. The change may involve direction, number of elements, size, fill, rotation, or position, and the correct answer continues that pattern.
When you begin practice, focus on the simplest comparisons first. Look for repeated changes, track each element separately, and avoid overcomplicating the pattern before you have checked the most visible features.
This approach is useful for the Cubiks and Harver formats used by ABN AMRO, where careful observation and consistent reasoning matter more than rushing into a guess.
What to prioritize first
Start with the core visual rules before moving to harder sets. A short, structured routine is usually more effective than long sessions with no review.
- Check the invitation email first so you know which assessment parts are relevant.
- Practice one change at a time, then combine changes only after the pattern is clear.
- Use timed sets sparingly at first, then increase speed once your accuracy is stable.
If a question feels unclear, mark the pattern you do understand and move forward. Building a calm habit around partial recognition can help you stay consistent throughout the test.
A simple preparation routine
Begin with a short untimed set to refresh your pattern recognition. This helps you settle into the task and notice how the sequence changes from figure to figure.
- Review the rule in the first two or three figures.
- Compare the answer options against the most likely change.
- Check your final choice for a second visible feature before moving on.
After a few rounds, switch to timed practice so you can adapt to the pace of the assessment. Keep notes on the types of changes that take you longer to identify, then revisit those patterns in later practice.
Why this module fits ABN AMRO applicants
ABN AMRO may use a combination of cognitive ability tests and additional personality or behavioral assessments. The figure sets module is part of the broader reasoning practice that can support preparation for these assessment formats.
Because the company can use Cubiks or Harver, a flexible preparation plan is helpful. Figure sets work well alongside number sequences, numerical reasoning, and analogies when you want to strengthen the main reasoning skills used in online assessments.
A focused practice package can make the process feel more manageable. By starting with the most common visual patterns, you give yourself a practical base for the next stage of preparation.
