The English IQ Test is divided into three distinct sections
Introduction
This initial section will provide users with a comprehensive overview of the test's mechanics and purpose. It aims to ensure that participants have a clear understanding of the test's structure before embarking on the assessment journey.
The Test
The central aspect of the English IQ Test involves participants navigating through a carefully curated list of 70 words. Users will be prompted to identify words they are not acquainted with, and these unfamiliar words will be highlighted for subsequent evaluation.
Evaluation
Following the completion of the test, users will be presented with their final IQ score. To enhance the user experience, an animated chart will visually compare the user's performance with that of other participants.

This phase focused on defining the style and colour palette that embody OWAD's sophistication. A mood board was meticulously crafted, presenting various design options to the client. The chosen aesthetic—cool minty greens blended with serene gradients—lends a refreshing touch to the design. Calming shades of grey complemented by substantial word cards reflect a mature and contemplative tone, ensuring both engagement and ease of comprehension. The design choices cater to the mature audience's preferences while adding a contemporary flair.

Phase four: design elevation
In the final design phase, the focus shifted to enhancing user accessibility. The chosen approach emphasized large word cards and bold fonts for inclusivity and ease of engagement, catering to the mature audience's preferences.
The design employed bold fonts against clean white cards, guiding attention to selected words. Ample whitespace enhanced clarity, while intuitive interactions marked unfamiliar words. Animations were seamlessly integrated, not just for visual appeal, but to elevate engagement and reinforce user interaction, resulting in an informative and dynamic testing experience.
