Welcome to the Great British Intelligence Test!

This series of cognitive tests – the Cognitron Challenge – is brought to you by Imperial College London and the BBC and will push your planning, reasoning, working memory and attentional abilities to the limit.

The Challenge will run a series of short tests lasting between approximately 1 and 4 minutes each. You will also be asked to complete a questionnaire. At the end, you will receive a summary containing personalised feedback on how you performed and your mental strengths.

The BBC and Imperial College London will use this data to paint a detailed picture of the nation’s intelligence. The results will be presented in a special Horizon episode on BBC2, and your contribution will be used by the Department of Brain Sciences at Imperial for academic research.

The challenge and questionnaire should take about 30 minutes.
