Verbal Reasoning:

The Verbal Reasoning sub-test evaluates your capacity to carefully read and analyze information presented in passages. It assesses your ability to determine whether specific conclusions can be drawn from the provided information. Importantly, prior knowledge is not expected to answer the questions.

Decision Making:

The Decision-Making sub-test tests your aptitude in applying logic to arrive at decisions or conclusions. It evaluates your ability to assess arguments, analyze statistical data, and make informed decisions.

Quantitative Reasoning:

Quantitative Reasoning assesses your proficiency in using numerical skills to solve problems. While it assumes familiarity with numbers to the level of a good pass at GCSE, the focus is more on problem-solving than on numerical facility.
