Hi Laksman, I often think most people fall down in our numerical reasoning test questions. The only advice I can give to you there is to do practice questions so you can be prepared for them.

There are a number of websites online where you can practice similar questions. Jobmi.com is one we've heard is quite good to practice

Ok, thank you. I'll make sure to practice my numerical reasoning

I struggle with the abstract reasoning tests, but numerical and verbal I am ok with. How can I improve the abstract reasoning?

Could you list all the tests that we would be taking during our application process?

Hi Rachel, after passing the initial numerical tests (and verbal) what is the hardest part in your opinion? And why do you think most candidates fail at the stage?

Hi Vraj, I think the question on what is the hardest depends on who you ask. You can practice lots of elements in the assessment but knowing what you're being assessed on is crucial. Ensure you know the assessment process step by step and read about what you're being asked to do. This will give you a better chance for success.
