Magnum Opus 100

Introduction

Magnum Opus 100 concludes my years-long work on numerical IQ tests.

It features carefully hand-picked items from all my previous sets, each chosen as a shining example of puzzle design.

This test is designed with culture fairness in mind — the only knowledge required to complete it is that of basic arithmetic operations.

To emphasize: no familiarity with concepts such as prime numbers, digits of pi, the golden ratio, or other mathematical trivia is assumed or necessary.

The items generally increase in difficulty as you progress. However, keep in mind that difficulty is subjective to an extent, shaped by each individual's way of thinking and past experiences.
