| Description | The CoreV assesses an individual's ability to read, understand and reason with generic verbal information. This test is suited to any role where reasoning with written information is a required competency. The test is not specific to any industry or role in particular therefore the CoreV can be used universally as a measure of verbal reasoning. The test consists of 36 multiple-choice questions based on passages of text containing information from a range of job roles and industries. | The CoreM assesses an individual's ability to reason with mechanical information and find solutions. This test is suited to any role where reasoning with mechanical principles is a required competency. The test helps to identify those individuals who are more likely to succeed in those aspects of training or the job that involve working with mechanical information. The test is comprised of 43 multiple-choice questions each containing a series of labelled diagrams of a mechanical nature. In each question there are three multiple-choice options that are based solely on the diagram. The candidate must use the information presented to identify the correct answer from the possible options. To work out the correct answer, the candidate will need to interpret concepts relating to physics and mechanics. | The CoreA assesses an individual's ability to reason with abstract information and find solutions. This test is suited to any role where reasoning with abstract information is a required competency. The test is not specific to any industry or role in particular, therefore the CoreA can be used universally as a measure of abstract reasoning. The test is comprised of 50 multiple-choice questions each containing a sequence of diagrams. In each question the last diagram will be missing with a question mark “?” in its place. It is the candidates task to work out what that missing “?” diagram is. To work out what the missing diagram is the candidate will need to identify what rule or rules are applied to each question's sequence. For each question the candidate is presented with five possible options that are based solely on the diagram. The candidate must use the information presented to identify the correct answer from the five possible options. |
