Re: Numerical/verbal/logical tests - How to prepare?
SHL isn't all that challenging, the tests are all very standardised (basically only the numbers change, the questions remain the same). If you're worried about them, then do the practice tests and possibly don't take your first choice jobs test first. I'm sure you'll find some practice SHL tests if you google around.
No idea on PSL, never done one. If in doubt hire a Chinese kid to do it. -
Re: Numerical/verbal/logical tests - How to prepare?Probably not the best advise?(Original post by Spurious)
Those tests are incredibly easy, dont worry about it.

Re: Numerical/verbal/logical tests - How to prepare?It's the first and easiest step in getting an internship.
Usually, I hate when people say "if you cant even do x, you wont be able to get y", but this is somewhat true for those standardized tests.
It's basic math, very basic as a matter of fact and the logic tests are just regular thinking. -
Re: Numerical/verbal/logical tests - How to prepare?
Yeah, I know that these tests are basic math and everyone claims that they are ridiculously easy. However, I do not plan to practise those tests 24/7 for weeks but I would like to see two or three of those tests (SHL -> verbal, numerical, logical and PSL -> whatever) prior to the actual tests.
