Description

Quantitative reasoning assesses your ability to use numerical skills in order to solve problems. Although a candidate is required to have a good standard of numerical ability, the tests are less to do with numerical facility and more to do with solving problems. During the actual tests a candidate will be required to solve problems by extracting relevant information from tables and other numerical presentations. Competence in quantitative reasoning is said to be mostly inherited; however, tests have proven that your ability in this type of test can be greatly improved with targeted practice. This book will provide you with over 250 pages of sample quantitative reasoning test questions and answers to help you prepare thoroughly for the tests.

PREFACE BY AUTHOR RICHARD MCMUNN
It’s probably important that I start off by explaining a little bit about myself, my background, and also why I’m suitably qualified to help you prepare for your quantitative reasoning test.
At the time of writing I am 42 years old and live in Tunbridge Wells, Kent. I left school at the usual age of 16 and joined the Royal Navy, serving on-board HMS Invincible as part of 800 Naval Air Squadron which formed part of the Fleet Air Arm. There I was, at the age of 16, travelling the world and working as an engineer on Sea Harrier jets! It was fantastic and I loved every minute of it. After four years I left the Royal Navy and joined Kent Fire and Rescue Service as a firefighter.
Over the next 17 years I worked my way up through the ranks to the position of Assistant Divisional Officer. During my time in the Fire Service I spent a lot of time working as an instructor at the Fire Brigade Training Centre. I was also involved in developing the selection process for assessing candidates who wanted to join the job as a firefighter. Therefore, my knowledge and experience gained so far in life has been invaluable in helping people like you to pass any type of selection process. I am sure you will find this guide an invaluable resource during your preparation for your assessment.
I have always been fortunate in the fact that I persevere at everything I do. I’ve understood that if I keep working hard in life then I will always be successful; or I will achieve whatever it is that I want to achieve. This is an important lesson that I want you to take on-board straight away. If you work hard and persevere, then success will come your way. It is also very important that you believe in your own abilities. It does not matter if you are currently weak in the area of quantitative reasoning or psychometric testing. What does matter is self-belief, self-discipline and a genuine desire to improve and become successful.
Finally, as part of this product I want to give you FREE access to online tests that will help you to pass your tests. To gain access, simply go to:

Best wishes,

Richard McMunn

TIPS FOR PASSING QUANTITATIVE REASONING TESTS
There’s no two ways about it, the most effective way in which you can prepare for the tests is to carry out lots of sample test questions. When I say lots, I mean lots! Before I provide you with a host of test questions for you to try, here are a few important tips for you to consider: Quantitative reasoning tests are used more commonly during technical assessments such as roles within the medical profession and roles where a high degree of problem-solving capability is required. The test assesses your ability to use numerical skills in order to accurately solve problems. Those sitting the test will normally be familiar with numbers to a good standard at GCSE level. During many quantitative tests the candidate will be permitted to use a calculator. More often than not the calculator will either be supplied by the test administrators or an online version will be supplied. It is therefore very important that you confirm with the test administrator the type of calculator that will be supplied prior to the test so that you can familiarise yourself with it. It is important that, before you sit your test, you find out the type(s) of questions you will be required to undertake. You should also take steps to find out if the tests will be timed and also whether or not they will be ‘multiple-choice’ based questions. If the tests that you will be required to undertake are timed and of multiple-choice in nature, then I strongly advise that you practice this type of test question. All of the questions within this guide are multiple-choice in nature which we believe will be similar to the test you are required to undertake. Variety is the key to success. I recommend that you attempt a variety of different test questions during your preparation under timed conditions. Examples of tests you should try include, IQ and psychometric tests, numerical reasoning, verbal reasoning, fault analysis, abstract reasoning, spatial reasoning and mechanical reasoning etc. This will undoubtedly improve your overall ability to pass the test that you are required to undertake and it will also be great practice for you to work under timed conditions. If you go to the free tests at www.PsychometricTestsOnline. co.uk then you will be able to try all of these free of charge. Confidence is an important part of test preparation. Have you ever sat a timed test and your mind goes blank? This is because your mind is focused on negative thoughts and your belief that you will fail the test. If you practice plenty of test questions under timed conditions then your confidence will grow. If your confidence is at its peak at the commencement of the test then there is no doubt that you will actually look forward to sitting it, as opposed to being fearful of the outcome. Whilst this is a very basic tip that may appear obvious, many people neglect to follow it. Make sure that you get a good night’s sleep the night before your test or assessment. Research has shown that those people who have regular ‘good’ sleep are far more likely to concentrate better during psychometric tests and assessments. During the quantitative reasoning test you should aim for SPEED as well as ACCURACY. Many test centres want to see how quickly you can work, but they also want to see how accurate your work is, too. Therefore, when tackling the tests you must work as quickly as you can without sacrificing accuracy. Most tests are designed so that you do not finish them and you will most probably lose marks for incorrect answers
