hi guys,
I was just wondering if any of you have took PwC numerical tests recently and how you found them.

easy peasy. I got 100% and was above the 99th percentile. But then, I did the gap year version which is only 18 questions, and the PwC test is significantly easier than all the others I did for Deloitte/KPMG/etc...

Hi,

I did it last week and I found it fine, much easier than Deloitte and I actually had time to spare! Wish I could say the same for the diagram test though...

Yup, I found them fairly easy - got my results back at 84%. Diagrammatical was far easier though - got 93% for that. I wouldn't worry, I didn't do A-Level Maths or anything like that and all these numerical tests have been easy sailing. Anyway, they don't carry much weight in the selection process.

Thats a weight off my shoulders :wink:

How about the verbal reasoning tests? - How did you guys find them?

You don't do verbal reasoning for PwC, just numbers and pictures. Which is good, really, because the verbal is so pathetically easy it's pointless.

i had 31 qs for verbal and 18 for numerical (i think!). the interview feedback is great! the lady spent 15 minutes going through absolutely every word i'd said and i received a letter a week later detailing the test results compared to other candidates

Hello everyone!
You all are very intelligent!!
I just recently took the online numerical and logical reasoning test for pwc, and actually found them both very difficult, and on top of that I ran out of time. I had about six numerical reasoning questions left, and about 4 logical reasoning questions left. I don't know what to do. I cannot believe it, I blew it!! I am from the USA, and since the economy globally is doing horrible, I was looking forward to this job. I don't know what to do now...

Practice and practice. With decent practice, you should be fine. The PwC is quite SHL standard, it's not particularly difficult compared with other tests. So dont worry too much, you dont need to be super smart, just need enough practice to do it.
