The Watson-Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal used in legal and graduate hiring — adaptive practice for the critical-reasoning and reading skills it measures.
The Watson-Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal is a widely used assessment in legal, graduate, and management hiring. It measures five facets of critical thinking — drawing inferences, recognizing assumptions, deduction, interpretation, and evaluating arguments — all of which depend on reading a passage carefully and reasoning strictly from what it says.
These reasoning skills improve with deliberate practice. Keentune’s adaptive drills build the argument analysis and close reading the Watson-Glaser rewards, meeting you at your level and getting harder as you improve. Practice the skills behind the appraisal below.

What does the Watson-Glaser practice cover?
It’s organized around the Watson-Glaser’s sections — Critical reasoning and Reading — with adaptive questions for the skills behind each one. You practice the underlying abilities the Watson-Glaser rewards rather than memorizing a fixed question set.
How does the adaptive difficulty work?
Every question is chosen near your current level in that skill. Answer well and it gets harder; miss and it eases back — so practice stays at the “optimal challenge” point where you improve fastest, and your level tracks your real progress.
