How the score is calculated

Correct answers ÷ all 16 questions × 100, rounded to the nearest whole percent. Wrong and unanswered questions earn zero; guessing has no extra penalty. For example, 12 correct out of 16 gives 75%.

The result screen also shows each skill’s correct-answer count. Those are small samples, useful for choosing what to practise, not reliable estimates of general ability. Timed mode allows 10 minutes; untimed mode removes the countdown. Each attempt draws 16 questions from a bank of 48, so two attempts have the same structure and skill mix but different questions. Compare results in the same mode and question-set version.

Choose your next step

These are descriptive score ranges for this exercise. They are not population norms, percentiles, employer pass marks or clinical categories.

0–49% correct

Work through the missed questions without the timer. Use the explanation to identify the rule or calculation you missed.

50–74% correct

Group your errors by skill. Practise the weakest skill with fresh examples before repeating this question set.

75–99% correct

Review the remaining misses and check whether speed or accuracy caused them. Use the same mode when comparing runs.

100% correct

You answered this entire set correctly. Try unfamiliar questions next; a perfect retake may reflect memory of the answers.

Read the passage, not your assumptions

Twelve original workplace passages, four per attempt, cover conclusions, conditions, scope and missing evidence. Choose True only when the passage supports the entire statement. Choose False when it contradicts the statement. Choose Cannot say when the information is insufficient.

Find the sentence that settles each statement. Words such as all, only, must and some change the claim. For Cannot say answers, identify the extra fact you would need before deciding.

Make a useful personal comparison

A retake draws different questions from the same bank and avoids the ones you have just seen, so a second score depends far less on remembering answers. Read the explanation for every miss before you go again.

This is unsupervised practice with no identity check. It is not an IQ test, medical assessment, verified certificate or basis for a hiring decision. Question set and scoring version: 2026-09-v2.

Share a result with its context

After finishing, choose Create shareable result. An optional display name can be left blank. The server recalculates the score from the submitted answers or measurements and creates a permanent public URL with a score image. The card includes the testing conditions so readers can understand the number.

Copy the link for a message, or use the HTML embed on the card for a portfolio or learning journal. The embed links to your result and the free test. Individual cards request no search indexing; this explanation and the test itself are indexable. You can request removal of a public card by emailing [email protected] with its URL.
