KPMG Assessment Analogies Tips
Practical tips for KPMG analogies practice, with clear guidance on relationships, timing, and focused preparation for LTP or Harver assessments.
Practical preparation for KPMG analogies
This guide helps you prepare for the analogies part of a KPMG assessment in a focused, practical way. The module is used in assessments delivered through LTP or Harver (NOA), where verbal reasoning is often combined with other cognitive tests and questionnaires.
Analogies ask you to identify the relationship between two words or concepts and apply the same relation to the answer options. That may sound straightforward, but doing it accurately under time pressure takes familiarity with the question style and a steady approach.
A careful practice routine can help you stay calm, read more precisely, and make better use of the time you have on test day.

How to approach the module
Start by naming the relationship before looking at the options. The connection may be based on meaning, function, category, sequence, or another clear link between the words.
If an option feels close but not exact, compare the relation rather than the words themselves. Many mistakes come from choosing an answer that looks familiar instead of matching the same structure.
Work at a steady pace and move on when a pair is unclear. For KPMG assessments, a consistent method is usually more useful than spending too long on a single item.
Because the invitation email may also mention other components, it is sensible to prepare analogies alongside the other common tests you expect from LTP or Harver.
Focused tips for better accuracy
Use this short routine while practicing and during the real assessment:
- Identify the relationship first, then check the options.
- Eliminate answers that match the words but not the logic.
- Keep your pace even so you do not rush the harder items.
Review wrong answers carefully after practice. The goal is not only to solve more questions, but to recognize which relation you missed and why.
If you are preparing for a broader KPMG assessment package, combine analogies practice with the other recurring ability tests so your preparation stays targeted rather than too broad.
What this means for your preparation
KPMG assessments can vary by invitation, so the email you receive is the best source for the exact components you should expect. The analogies module is part of a verbal reasoning profile that may appear alongside numerical or abstract reasoning tasks.
This module is suitable for a range of job levels, from analyst and associate to more senior roles. A measured practice plan can help you build confidence without overcomplicating your preparation.
If you want to prepare efficiently, focus on the common question pattern, repeat a few timed practice sets, and use the feedback to refine your approach before the assessment.
