What to Expect

You will see a visual element — this could be a schedule, floor plan, map, organizational chart, comparison table, or process diagram. Alongside the visual, there may be a short passage explaining it.

The visual represents real-life documents: a community center schedule, a store layout, a transit map, a workplace hierarchy chart, or a product comparison table.

Questions test your ability to locate specific information in the visual, apply the information to a given scenario, combine details from the visual and text, and draw conclusions from the data presented.

Tips for Scoring High

  • Spend a minute understanding the visual before reading questions. Note headings, labels, rows, and columns.
  • For schedules: focus on days, times, locations, and any footnotes or exceptions.
  • For maps and diagrams: note directions, labels, and spatial relationships between elements.
  • Read each question carefully — some ask you to combine information from multiple parts of the diagram.
  • Eliminate obviously wrong answers first. The visual usually makes 1-2 choices clearly incorrect.
