SHL tests, Numerical Reasoning - Free Practice Tests and Resources

Hi Everyone,
So I hope this is the correct place to post this. In the last few months I've been applying to jobs /positions/ graduate schemes and, like many, i've had to sit through a few psychometric/ SHL tests.
In all honesty, having not done these sort of calculations for a while, I struggled at first but with a bit of practice and dedication am now completely confident with any SHL or psychometric test (well mostly).
Having researched these tests quite a bit, I'd like to share some useful resources that I came across along the way. Hopefully this can be of help to some of you guys out there.
So, as the title is dedicated to SHL tests, here are a few SHL questions that I found posted around forum (mainly here on TSR):

These are the tests I used to improve my score but I'm sure there are many more out there.
Controversially, I also chanced upon an entire cheating, pay-to-pass culture. There are a few websites out there where you can pay a professional to pass these tests for you. These are mainly freelancer websites such as odesk, fiverr, shuntr or elancer. Wasn't sure whether to include this or not, so if the majority would like me to remove this paragraph then so-be-it, let me know!
All aside, I wanted this to serve as a free test/question resource list for those who can not afford to shell out for practice papers etc. Any further contributions are obviously welcome.

Thanks alot
