What Is the FBI Phase 1 Test?

The FBI test is a computerized exam that is performed in a proctored onsite setting and involves five sections: Logic-Based Reasoning, Figural Reasoning, Personality Assessment, Preferences and Interests, and Situational Judgment.

These entrance exams evaluate your logical and figural reasoning abilities, as well as your critical thinking skills and personality traits.

So, What Is the Best Way to Prepare for the FBI Test?

First, well done on finishing these challenging sample questions! You may already feel more prepared for the FBI Test than you did before.

The sample questions you have just tried are a good starting point, as they resemble the difficulty and style of some of the actual questions you will encounter. However, they still don’t cover all the question types you’ll face on the test. Thus, relying solely on sample questions for practice is usually insufficient.

To truly take the FBI Special Agent Test well prepared, it is highly recommended to practice as much as possible, especially logic-based reasoning and figural reasoning questions, that are highly challenging under the pressure of the actual test. The ability to identify patterns and analyze logical statements can improve quickly when practicing questions mirroring the FBI test, especially when learning quick tricks and strategies that simplify the questions and increase your chances to answer correctly. 

To gain step-by-step guidance on efficiently solving any FBI phase 1 question, we have created a complete FBI Preparation Pack containing accurate FBI practice tests with detailed answers, shortcuts, and tips for each question type on the exam. In this preparation pack, you’ll get:

  • FBI-style practice tests that cover the five test sections and simulate the same question types you’ll likely face on the real test (verified by our test experts)
  • Advanced methods and techniques that will skyrocket your problem-solving abilities
  • Specific drills that target your weakest areas in which you feel you need reinforcement
  • Study guides and video tutorials with exclusive FBI test tips found nowhere else on the web (including Biodata inventory guide)

The FBI Phase 2

The test consists of a 150-minute writing assessment and a 1-hour interview. To prepare for this part, we offer supplementary practice for the writing assessment, containing a guide with writing examples, tips, and strategies to improve your writing.
