KPMG Figure Sets Preparation Guide
Prepare for KPMG figure sets with a calm, focused approach. Learn what to expect, what to prioritize first, and how to practice efficiently.
Start with the assessment format
KPMG assessments can be sent through LTP or Harver (NOA), so the invitation email is the best place to begin. It usually tells you which components are included and which parts deserve the most attention.
For figure sets, the main task is to identify the rule behind a visual sequence and choose the shape that fits next. This module supports abstract reasoning and is often part of a broader package that can also include cognitive tests and additional questionnaires.

This gives you an immediate feel for the question style and the value of the practice environment.
Build familiarity with the figure sequence task
In this module, each figure changes according to one or more rules, such as rotation, position, number of elements, size, fill, or direction. The goal is to compare the figures step by step and spot the underlying pattern before making a choice.
A steady approach helps more than trying to move quickly from the start. First identify what changes, then check whether the change follows a clear order, and only after that compare the answer options against the sequence.
This type of preparation is useful when the assessment is time-limited or when the invitation includes several different online test components. It helps you become comfortable with the way questions are presented, so the real test feels more structured and less broad.
Prepare in the right order
Begin with the modules named in your invitation email, because KPMG assessments can vary by provider and role. Figure sets may be one part of a wider assessment, so it is sensible to focus first on the exercises that are explicitly mentioned.
After that, use short practice sessions to train your observation and rule detection. When working on figure sequences, take time to explain to yourself what changes from one step to the next, especially if several features shift at once.
If you have more time, combine figure sets with other commonly used components such as number sequences, matrices, syllogisms, analogies, and arithmetic. That creates a more realistic preparation without making your study plan unnecessarily broad.
What this preparation is meant to support
This bundle is aligned with the KPMG assessments commonly delivered through LTP and Harver (NOA). It helps you practice the style of tasks that often recur, while staying focused on the parts most likely to appear in the invitation.
The content is relevant for different job levels, from analyst and associate to senior associate, manager, director, and partner. Because the exact assessment can differ by invitation, the safest approach is to use the email as your guide and prepare with clear priorities.
A free practice test is available for this language and category, which can be useful for a quick first check before you move into fuller preparation.
