Where Practice Aptitude Tests is stronger

  • Value for written tests: £39 a year covers 376 test packages across numerical, verbal, logical, language and personality, with full worked solutions.
  • Employer packages: 236 of them, each grouping the formats a named employer uses.
  • A free test in every format on the free plan.

Where CogniPrep is stronger

  • Playable games. Its Arctic Shores page sells written practice tests, not the games; we simulate 14 Arctic Shores games, 12 pymetrics games and 13 HireVue games.
  • No subscription to remember to cancel. You pay once and keep access.
  • A refund if our practice did not match the test you sat, claimed within 30 days. Practice Aptitude Tests does not refund once access has started.
  • Recorded video interview practice with AI feedback.
  • A free account opens 87 games across all 65 providers, with 5 plays per provider and your first 3 scores per provider shown.

Subscription or one payment

Practice Aptitude Tests Pro is £29 a month or £39 a year, and it renews at the end of each period until you cancel. Cancelling stops the next charge; access runs to the end of the period you paid for. If you only need a month, the yearly plan is still the cheaper of the two.

CogniPrep charges once per provider, from £10, and never renews.

Which to choose

Choose Practice Aptitude Tests if you face classic numerical, verbal and logical tests from several publishers and want a big bank of worked questions for a year.

Choose CogniPrep if your test is a game-based assessment, or a provider-specific test such as SHL, Watson Glaser or the CCAT, and you want to rehearse it in its own format.

Questions

How do I cancel Practice Aptitude Tests?

Its pricing page says you cancel before the renewal date to avoid the next charge, and access runs to the end of the period already paid. CogniPrep has nothing to cancel: each purchase is a single payment.

Does Practice Aptitude Tests have Arctic Shores games?

No. Its Arctic Shores page sells written practice tests with solved questions, not playable games. CogniPrep simulates 14 Arctic Shores games.

Does Practice Aptitude Tests give refunds?

Its pricing page says fees are not refundable once access has started, except where a fault on its side kept you out of your account for more than 48 hours.
