Question 1

What is CCAT Prep: Pacecraft?

Accepted Answer

Pacecraft is a free browser-based trainer for the Criteria Cognitive Aptitude Test. It generates original practice questions across verbal, math and logic, and spatial reasoning. Every displayed item must pass a single-answer verification contract before it appears. The app also explains answers and includes the full 50-question, 15-minute format for rehearsal.

Question 2

Is this CCAT practice free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. There is no account, paywall, or feature gate. Your name, settings, answers, and practice history are stored in your browser.

Question 3

Where should I start?

Accepted Answer

Start with five guided questions if the format is new. Then take the seven-minute starting check. Use guided practice for accuracy, quick timed practice for pacing, and the full simulation for rehearsal.

Question 4

Does Pacecraft collect my practice answers?

Accepted Answer

No. Your name, answers, and progress stay in your browser. The page uses basic aggregate Google Analytics for visits and device or browser usage, but practice answers are not sent with those analytics.

Question 5

What is the CCAT and what is an average score?

Accepted Answer

The Criteria Cognitive Aptitude Test has 50 questions and a 15-minute time limit across verbal, math and logic, and spatial reasoning. Criteria says the average test taker gets 24 questions right and fewer than 1 percent answer all 50.

Question 6

Are these official CCAT questions or scores?

Accepted Answer

No. The questions are original independent practice. Pacecraft is not sponsored, endorsed, approved, or scored by Criteria Corp. Results are learning signals, not official scores, percentiles, or hiring outcomes.

Question 7

Can I use Pacecraft on a phone?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Guided and short practice work on phones, tablets, and desktops. A larger screen is preferable for the full simulation and visual questions.

Question 8

What is the best way to prepare for the CCAT?

Accepted Answer

Learn the formats first, practice one method at a time, and then add time pressure. The full-test average is about 18 seconds per question. If there is still no clear route around 30 seconds, choose the best answer and move on.
