The Switch Challenge is the symbol-reordering game in Aon's smartPredict assessment, used in the P&G Interactive Assessment and by other employers; it is also called pipeline logic. Enter the input order, each box and the output order from your question, and the solver works out the unknown box while displaying every intermediate sequence. The point is not only the answer: stepping through the stages lets you confirm you have not reversed the direction of the forward or backward pass, which is where most marks are lost on this question type.
Tick “unknown” to show three candidate slots; all may stay empty for one unknown stage.
Press “Solve” to see the answer and the shape flow through the pipes.
Use the solver to check each permutation, the practice bank to answer original questions with feedback, and the mock exam to rehearse under timed conditions. These are independent preparation resources, not official questions or a pass guarantee.
The Switch Challenge is one of the gamified tests in Aon's smartPredict assessment (formerly cut-e scales sx), alongside the Digit, Grid and Motion challenges. P&G uses it in its Interactive Assessment, which is why it is often called the P&G Switch Challenge, but it is an Aon test that other employers can use too.
Outside P&G, prep providers list Deloitte, KPMG, EY, Morgan Stanley, UBS, Johnson & Johnson, Capgemini, Vodafone and Siemens among employers that use Aon (formerly cut-e) assessments for some roles. Employers change tests by role, country and year, so check your own invitation; the skill trained here is the same whichever company sends it.
The Switch Challenge is one of the short cognitive games in the P&G Interactive Assessment, which P&G describes as an online test of about 30 minutes that some roles require. In each question a row of four symbols passes through a hidden operator and comes out in a new order. Your job is to pick the four-digit code that describes the reordering, as fast and as accurately as you can.
Candidates commonly report a fixed time window of around six minutes with as many questions as you can answer, and difficulty that rises as you keep getting questions right. Later questions chain two or more operators, so you have to work out one unknown box while another box has already changed the order.
A code such as 3142 means: the new first position takes the symbol from old position 3, the new second takes old position 1, the new third takes old position 4 and the new fourth takes old position 2. Read it as "where does each new slot come from", never as "where does each old symbol go". Mixing up those two directions is the single most common source of wrong answers.
Input A B C D goes through box 2314, then through an unknown box, and the output is D A C B. Box 2314 turns A B C D into B C A D. In the output, D was in position 4 of B C A D, A in position 3, C in position 2 and B in position 1, so the unknown box is 4321. Check it: B C A D through 4321 gives D A C B.
Enter the same rows in the solver above to see every intermediate sequence. With a single unknown box you do not need to fill in answer options.
Candidates usually report a time window of about six minutes in which you answer as many questions as you can. P&G itself describes the whole Interactive Assessment as taking about 30 minutes; check the instructions on your own invitation, because the format can vary by role.
The Switch Challenge is an Aon (cut-e) test. P&G uses it in its Interactive Assessment, and prep providers report Aon assessments at employers such as Deloitte, KPMG, EY, Morgan Stanley and Capgemini for some roles. Employers change tools by role and year, so check your own invitation.
Each digit says which old position fills that new position. 3142 means the new first slot takes old position 3, the second takes old position 1, the third takes old position 4 and the fourth takes old position 2.
Learn one fixed procedure, check answers by substitution until it is automatic, then practise against a timer. Speed comes from never having to decide which direction to read the code, not from guessing.
