Subtests

Verbal Reasoning (VR1)

Measures high level verbal fluency, vocabulary and the ability to understand and reason using words.

This test is appropriate for jobs which require a very high level of verbal ability, such as senior management, sales and administrative positions, systems analysts, marketing and advertising executives.

Numerical Reasoning (NR1)

Measures the ability to use and understand complex numerical concepts, to reason using numbers and perceive logical relationships between them.

This test is appropriate for jobs which require a very high level of numerical ability, such as accountants and others in the financial services sector, and all senior positions which require dealing with financial and technical data.

Abstract Reasoning (AR1)

Measures the ability to understand high level abstract logical problems and use new information outside the range of previous experience. This is the purest form of mental ability and is least affected by previous education and achievement.

This test is appropriate for jobs, which require the use of logical analysis in novel, intellectually demanding situations, such as technical and scientific posts and senior management positions.
