Sample Acronyms question.

In the example above the correct answer is B, because IT is the acronym for “Information Technology”.

Word Comparison

In the example above the correct answer is A, “Similar”. To decide and to determine both mean to settle something.

Checking Errors

These questions provide the employing organization with information about a candidate’s general ability to quickly identify any errors in complex data. The questions are designed to measure attention to detail and evaluate speed and accuracy skills.

wonderlic-checking-speed-test-example-question

Sample Error Checking question.

The right answer in the example above is B, this string is exactly the same as the given string.

Disarranged Sentences

In these questions, you are presented with a sentence where the words are scrambled. You are asked to rearrange this sentence and determine if the statement that this sentence forms, is true or false. These questions provide the employing organization with information about the general verbal acuity and insight. The questions are designed to measure the ability to think methodically and fluency in the English language. General knowledge is also assessed with these questions.

wonderlic-disarranged-sentences-test-example-question

Sample Disarranged Sentences question.

The answer in the example above is A, "True". The sentence is: “The unit of power is Watt”, which is true.

Deductive Reasoning

In Deductive Reasoning questions, you are presented with 2 statements that you have to assume as true. Following this, there is a third sentence which forms a conclusion about the first two sentences. The task is to determine if the conclusion is true, false, or can not be determined on the basis of the statements. These questions provide the employing organization with information about a candidate’s deductive and logical reasoning skills. 

wonderlic-deductive-reasoning-test-example-question 

Sample Deductive Reasoning question.

The correct answer in the example above is C, “Uncertain”. The first two sentences don’t tell us which is Sara’s favorite color. We only know that green is not her favorite color.

These questions are designed to provide the employing organization with information about a candidate’s general reading comprehension skills, ability to visualize information and numerical aptitude.

wonderlic-math-word-problems-test-example-question

Sample Math Word Problem question.

In the example question above the right answer is E, "Thursday 25 September".  Today is 11th August. August has 31 days which means that it will be 11th September in exactly 31 days. This leaves 45 – 31 = 14 days; 11 + 14 = 25, thus the exam presentation will take place on 25 September. Now we need to determine on which day this will fall. Today is Monday. Monday + 1 week is Monday; there are 6 weeks and 3 days in 45 days. Monday + 3 days brings us to Thursday so the exam presentation will happen on Thursday 25th September.

Number Series

In a number series question, you are asked to find a connection between given numbers in a sequence and choose the right number that comes next. These questions provide the employing organization with information about a candidate’s general ability to logically reason with numbers. 

wonderlic-number-series-test-example-question

Sample Number Series question.

In the example above the right answer 63. After the first number, 6 is added, then every next step the number that is added will be increased by 3. So ultimately 18 is added to 45 which comes to 63.
