IQ Battery — The Classic 40 — 40 questions with a worked solution for every item, under the classic exam clock.
The mixed battery is the other great classic of intelligence testing. Where a matrices test speaks only in pictures, the battery Hans Eysenck popularised in his famous self-scoring IQ books throws everything at you under one clock — word puzzles, number rules and figure series, interleaved so you must keep switching mental gears. That switching is the point: general ability shows most clearly when no single trick carries you through.
This free test is the battery in miniature: twelve original puzzles — word bridges, anagram odd-one-outs, letter and number series, rule-linked number wheels, and figure sequences — in a gentle nine minutes. We score it the moment you finish and email you a free report with your level, a verbal / numerical / figural breakdown and where to focus next.
The full Classic 40 — forty items under the classic thirty-minute clock, exam conditions, worked solutions for every item and a classic-style scale estimate for your score — is available as the paid version of this test. Squizly is not affiliated with the estate of H.J. Eysenck or any psychometric test publisher, and this test is not endorsed by either; the historical name describes the format. Every puzzle here is an original item written in the classic mixed-battery style.
Frequently asked questions
Is this the official Eysenck IQ test?
No. Squizly is not affiliated with the estate of H.J. Eysenck or any psychometric test publisher, and this test is not endorsed by either; the historical name describes the format. Every puzzle here is an original item written in the classic mixed-battery style. Hans Eysenck's self-scoring books made the 40-item, 30-minute mixed battery famous; what you practise here is the same discipline — verbal, numerical and figural puzzles under one clock — on freshly written items.
How is it scored?
One point per correct answer, scored the moment you finish. Your report shows your band, a verbal / numerical / figural breakdown, and the share of test-takers you outperformed.
What is the Classic 40?
The full-length version: 40 original items in the classic mix, one 30-minute clock, no feedback until the end (exam conditions), then worked solutions for every item and a classic-style scale estimate for your score. This free test is the same battery in miniature.
Why a mixed battery?
Single-format tests reward a single skill. The classic battery interleaves word, number and figure puzzles precisely so that no memorised trick survives — every few items the rules change, and what's left to measure is general reasoning.
