P&G Assessment Test – Free 2026 Online Practice Exam Questions
(Last Updated: February 2026)
The P&G assessment has two critical stages designed to filter candidates before interviews begin-
1. The PEAK challenges personality assessments
2. The Interactive Assessment cognitive challenges (SWITCH, GRID and DIGIT)
This page offers a free sneak peek into the key topics and question styles you’re likely to encounter, helping you start your preparation with confidence.
Our adaptive and interactive practice tests are deliberately harder than the real assessment, so when you sit for the actual exam, it will feel significantly easier.
What Is the P&G Assessment Test?
The P&G online assessment (also called the interactive assessment or candidate test) is a timed, game-style screening test. It includes logic, memory, numeracy, and personality sections.
The P&G assessment is known for its difficulty. In fact, over 70% of candidates don’t make it past this stage. But preparation makes a difference.
Our data shows that users who complete all four practice simulations are twice as likely to pass on their first try.
This section will help you break down each part of the test and practice effectively, so you walk in confident—not surprised.
Before diving into the free practice questions, we recommend watching the video below to better understand the test structure and how to pass-

How P&G Test Scoring works
⏰ Critical Timeline Alert: Candidates receive their P&G test invitation by email. Taking the test within 48-72 hours of receiving the invitation leads to higher pass rates—spots fill fast. If you fail, you'll face a 12-month cooldown before you can reapply—missing P&G's entire 2026 hiring cycle during their workforce restructuring. Start practicing now, before the invitation arrives.

2. Switch Challenge Practice Test
- You have 6 minutes to answer as many questions as you can.
- Questions become progressively more difficult.
The Switch Challenge questions in the P&G assessment test contain four symbols that change their order according to an operator. Your task is to transform the input shape sequence (numbered from left to right) into the output shape sequence using a four-digit operator.
Each digit in the operator corresponds to the previous position of each shape before it was altered. The new order of the shapes' positions aligns with the digits in the operator. For each question, you'll choose one or more operators that match the changes in the shape order.
P&G Practice Test Question 3 - Switch Challenge
The top sequence, using one of the three operators, turns into the bottom sequence
What is the correct operator?
P&G Practice Test Question 4 - Switch Challenge
The top sequence, using one of the three operators, turns into the bottom sequence
What is the correct operator?

The Switch Challenge is a **logic sequencing game** that tests your pattern recognition under time pressure. You'll see four symbols (shapes like triangles, stars, hexagons, and rhombuses) that change position according to numerical operators.
**Key mechanics:**
- **6-minute time limit** with 15-20+ questions
- Questions get **progressively harder** as you answer correctly (adaptive algorithm)
- Each "operator" (like 3142) tells you how to reorder the shapes
- You must identify which operator transforms the top sequence into the bottom sequence
**Why it's difficult:** The test deliberately overloads your short-term memory by forcing you to mentally track 4 moving objects simultaneously. Most candidates see their accuracy drop after question 8-10 when the difficulty spikes.
**Pass rate:** Less than 20% of candidates successfully complete this section on their first attempt without preparation.

The Digit Challenge is a numeracy test that aims to examine your ability to perform numerical calculations quickly and accurately. You will be presented with math problems including a predetermined result, blank spaces, and operators. Your objective is to discover a digit combination that can fill the empty spaces and make the mathematical expression accurate.
P&G Practice Test Question 5 - Digit Challenge
Find the numbers that make the equation work.
Remember - in the real P&G test you will be timed!
P&G Practice Test Question 6 - Digit Challenge
Find the numbers that make the equation work.
Remember - in the real P&G test you will be timed!
This part of the assessment test comprises a calculation test. Similar tasks can be found on the SHL calculation Test or the Optiver Test.
The P&G Digit Challenge is not to be confused with the Pymetrics Digits Game, although they are both gamified assessments.

The Digit Challenge is a mental math speed test disguised as a puzzle game. You'll see equations with missing numbers and your task is to find digit combinations that make the equation true.
Key mechanics:
- 5-minute time limit with 20-30+ questions
- Multiple correct answers exist for most questions
- Difficulty scales from simple addition (5+1-2+3=7) to multi-digit multiplication (7×8×2=112)
- Calculator not allowed—you must compute in your head
Why it's difficult: The time pressure forces you to make mental calculations at 10-15 seconds per question. Most candidates slow down dramatically after question 12 when multiplication and division enter the mix.
Strategy tip: Work with small numbers first. For 112 ÷ 2 = 56, think "what small numbers multiply to 56?" (7×8) rather than trying complex division. Start with the smallest factors and build up.
What P&G is testing: Your ability to process numerical information quickly under pressure—critical for roles in supply chain, finance, and data-driven brand management where you need to spot patterns in metrics fast.
4. Grid Challenge Practice Test
- There are 3 sections and you have 3 minutes to complete each one.
- This test measures your short-term memory and your spatial orientation skills.
In each round, you will be presented with a memorization question followed by a spatial orientation question. The memorization question requires you to memorize the location of a colored dot on a grid. The spatial orientation question requires you to determine whether two grids of dots are identical, rotated, or mirrored. The Grid Challenge is a timed test, and the difficulty of the questions increases as you progress. Take a look at the following video to better understand the test and then try answering the questions below.
P&G Practice Test Question 7 - Grid Challenge
Before proceeding to the question, observe the hidden picture for 30 seconds and remember which dot is marked red. You will need this for a future question.
Symmetry: these types of questions will contain two grids with a line dividing between them. You have to determine whether the grids are symmetrical or not, such as the following.
Is the image symmetrical?
P&G Practice Test Question 8 - Grid Challenge
Before proceeding to the question, observe the hidden picture for 30 seconds and remember which dot is marked red. You will need this for a future question.
Rotation: For these questions, you need to determine whether the right and left grids are identical, only rotated.
Are the images identical but rotated?
P&G Practice Test Question 9 - Grid Challenge
Before proceeding to the question, observe the hidden picture for 30 seconds and remember which dot is marked red. You will need this for a future question.
Combination: Each question will contain three grids and you must determine whether the bottom grid is the "result" of the combination of the two top grids.
Is this correct?
P&G Practice Test Question 10 - Grid Challenge
Now is the time to recall those hidden images. Observe the grid:
Where on the grid and in which order did the dots appear?
Learn more about the interactive Grid Challenge.
Beat the Grid Challenge
The Grid Challenge is a tough nut, especially with the timing and increasing difficulty. Your best way to overcome this obstacle will be to create strategies and practice repetitively. Our Procter and Gamble Assessment Test Practice will let you practice as much as you need on infinite different rounds, offering the best practice.
The Grid Challenge tests spatial memory and visual pattern recognition through a dual-task format. Each round alternates between:
- Memory task: Remember the location of a red dot on a 5x5 or 6x6 grid (3-5 seconds display)
- Spatial task: Determine if two dot patterns are identical, rotated, or mirrored
Key mechanics:
- 3 minutes per section (3 sections total = 9 minutes)
- Questions answered in pairs (memory → spatial → memory → spatial)
- You must hold 5-8 dot locations in memory while solving spatial problems
- Final round tests all memorized locations at once
Why it's difficult: Your brain must simultaneously process NEW visual information while retaining OLD memory data. This creates cognitive interference that causes most candidates to forget locations by round 3.
What P&G is testing: Your ability to handle multiple priorities under pressure—a core skill in fast-paced brand management and supply chain roles where you're juggling several projects simultaneously.
Strategy tip: Use chunking techniques—group dots by quadrant or create mental "landmarks" rather than trying to remember individual coordinates.

FAQs
Less than 20% of candidates pass the combined PEAK Performance + Interactive Assessment on their first attempt. The Switch, Grid, and Digit Challenges are specifically designed to filter out 70-80% of applicants before they reach interviews. However, our data from 30+ years of test preparation shows candidates who complete targeted practice simulations (100+ timed rounds) are 2.6x more likely to pass than those who rely on free samples alone.
Immediately—even before applying. Here's why: You'll typically receive your test invitation within 24-72 hours of submitting your application. Most candidates discover the test difficulty too late and fail. Our recommendation: Complete at least 50-100 practice rounds BEFORE applying so you're ready the moment the invitation arrives and can take advantage of the optimal 48-72 hour testing window.
If you fail the P&G assessment, you cannot reapply for 12 months. This means missing P&G's entire hiring cycle for that year. With P&G's June 2025 announcement of 7,000 job cuts (6% workforce reduction) alongside continued graduate hiring, competition for remaining positions is fiercer than ever. The cooldown period makes your first attempt critical—you literally cannot afford to fail.
The full assessment takes 40–60 minutes. Each interactive game (Switch, Grid, Digit) lasts about 5–6 minutes. The PEAK Performance section is untimed but typically takes around 20 minutes.
There are no “right” or “wrong” answers, but some responses are more aligned with what P&G looks for. It’s still a screening tool, so poor alignment may result in disqualification.
