    Description

    Available on our online test and exercise platform, Candela, the Station Numerical Test Version A (SNTa) is an aptitude test that was developed for the purpose of assessing a candidate’s aptitude for working with basic numerical information e.g. simple addition, multiplication, subtraction and division. The test consists of 30 multiple-choice questions based on transport related station environments.

    It has been designed for jobs where employees or trainees are required to have a basic aptitude for working with numbers in a station environment. The SNTa can be used as a standalone test or as a tool to verify the candidates performance in the Station Numerical Test Version B if it is used as a screening tool.

    Here is an example of what you might see in the SNTa:
