About the Numerical Reasoning test
The Numerical Reasoning test evaluates a candidate’s mathematical aptitude and ability to apply numerical concepts to real-world problems. Candidates will face a variety of problems involving numbers, percentages, ratios, and basic algebraic concepts, demonstrating skills in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
The test assesses the candidate’s ability to interpret numerical data, such as graphs, charts, and tables, extracting meaningful information to solve problems. Key areas include calculating percentages, working with ratios, solving time and work problems, and tackling word problems that require mathematical operations.
Problem-solving and critical thinking are vital, as candidates must interpret and analyze data, using logic and reasoning to make informed decisions. Candidates will also be tested on their ability to work under time pressure, solving problems quickly and accurately. Tasks may involve interpreting statistical data, identifying trends, solving puzzles, and applying mathematical reasoning to optimize everyday outcomes.
Overall, the test ensures candidates can reason effectively and apply mathematical logic to work-related situations.
