- Read and comprehend written passages of text
- Understand individual word meanings
- Evaluate competing statements
- Understand underlying inferences
- Extrapolate relevant information to arrive at a correct judgement
When assessing work aptitude, the numerical reasoning test provides an indication of how a person will perform when working with numbers, tables, bar charts, records, inventories, analysis reports and other data found in the workplace.
This form of reasoning is commonly required to support work judgement and decision making in many different types of professional, executive and managerial positions. The score attained, demonstrates the person’s ability to:
- Comprehend graphs, tables and charts
- Make inferences from numerical data
- Compare contrasting numerical data
- Evaluate quantities to arrive at a correct judgement
When assessing work aptitude, the abstract reasoning test provides an indication of how a person will perform when required to take on board new concepts or generate ideas using existing information.
This form of reasoning often referred to as “fluid intelligence†or “inductive insight†is commonly required for performance in many different types of professional, executive and managerial positions. The score attained in the abstract reasoning test, will give an indication of a person’s ability to demonstrate:
- Divergent thinking (thinking laterally)
- Switching between contexts and levels of analysis
- Ability to innovate and problem solve
- Taking a strategic perspective
- employers to objectively identify preferred talent from a pool of graduates by bringing to bear the noble ideals of meritocracy and equal opportunity
