Important verbal aptitude test information:

  • Verbal aptitude tests are timed. Although various verbal reasoning tests may have different time limits, you should expect to be given approximately 30 seconds per question.
  • The verbal reasoning test is designed so only 1% to 2% of test-takers can correctly answer all questions within the time limit.
  • Your answers to test questions must be based only on the information given. This means that even if you have extensive knowledge of the specific topic that extends beyond the given information (or may even have information that contradicts the written information), you should only base your answer on the information you received.
  • Topics for verbal test questions include material from the social sciences, physical or biological sciences, and business-related areas (marketing, economics, human resource management, etc.); however, no specific knowledge of the material is required.
