Switch Challenge

Overview

Switch Challenge measures deductive-logical reasoning — your ability to apply a formally defined rule system and work out which rule, or which combination of rules, explains an observed result. Each item shows a row of four symbols and, below it, the same symbols in a different order; between them sit one or more numbered operators — four-digit codes in which every digit tells a slot which position of the incoming row it takes its symbol from. You deduce which offered operator, or which top-to-bottom sequence of operators, produces exactly the transformation shown. This replicates the cut-e (Aon) switchChallenge from the gamified smartPredict battery (the scales sx deductive family), used in airline, graduate and professional selection: the real assessment gives you six minutes to solve as many items as possible and adapts as you answer, stepping up from a single operator to chains of two or more. Here you choose the stage yourself — Easy is one operator, Medium two, Hard three — plus a 3-, 6- or 9-minute run, so you can drill each chain length deliberately; the 6-minute preset mirrors the real timing. Every item is generated fresh with exactly one offered option that maps the top row to the bottom row, so the deduction — never a memorised picture — is what you practise.

Assessments

Tested in assessments at FTEJerez.

Could show up in cut-e / Aon-based selections.

Airline mappings are based on public information and may change.

Example: which operator turns the top row into the bottom row?

The hidden operator reorders the four symbols. Work out, position by position, where each symbol of the bottom row came from — only one of the four codes describes that mapping.
