These are timed tests, taken under exam conditions, designed to measure your intellectual capacity for thinking and reasoning, particularly your logical/analytical ability. The tests are designed for specific roles and are meant to be challenging but you won’t be expected to have prior knowledge or experience of the role for which you are applying. Accuracy is more important than speed. Most tests are multiple choice and designed so that very few candidates both finish and get the correct answers.
Whatever your prior test experience:

• pay careful attention to the instructions;
• ask for clarification if you don’t understand something;
• work as quickly and as accurately as you can;
• skip over any questions you get stuck on;
• make sure that you record your answers in the correct boxes;
• get used to working without a calculator (you may not be allowed one) and revise basic mathematical operations if you haven’t done numerical work for a long time.
