Good luck with your aptitude test. It's fairly straight forward, but take your time and you should do alright.

Thanks! I've also been working through some math stuff just so I'm comfortable with that part of the test. (I'm much more confident with the other areas.)

KerryBlue: Grats & good luck!

Thanks! I've also been working through some math stuff just so I'm comfortable with that part of the test. (I'm much more confident with the other areas.)

KerryBlue: Grats & good luck!

The math part is pretty complex. plus the 30 minute time limit for 30 questions is quite aggressive. make sure you do the questions you can answer quickly first. Unfortunately thats all I can say.

As far as the verbal skills portion. Don't be so sure. Im quite literate and it was no walk in the park.

Best of luck though. AND TRUST YOUR GUT!
