Knowledge

Instructions

You can’t pass or fail this. This is just a snapshot of the things you’ve decided to learn and remember. Do not use a calculator, Google, or other aids. Feel free to use a sheet of scratch paper for any figuring you may want to do.

It’s natural to forget math if you don't regularly use it. If you think you might know the answer, make an educated guess. If you select the response “I don‘t know,” the item will be counted as incorrect.

Instructions

Assume all the blocks are the same size. Include the blocks you can’t see when counting the number of blocks.

What is Spatial Form?

Think of Tony Stark in Marvel’s Iron Man. Instead of looking at data on a flat plane, Stark’s digital holograms let him interact with his work in three dimensions, rotating them, changing them, all without having a single real thing in front of him. Someone with a strong spatial visualization aptitude can do that in their head. Other people, like Tony, rely on software to help them better visualize.

Ideal Environment

A comfortable environment leads to focused attention, reduced anxiety, and results that best represent who you are in relation to the world of work.

Quiet Setting

  • Find a quiet place where you can focus without any interruptions or distractions.

Re-energize & Refresh

  • Feel free to take a break after completing each section. The Interests section is 10-15 minutes and the Work Styles section is 8-10 minutes. The Knowledge section is longer, taking about 30-40 minutes, so take extra breaks as needed.
  • Make the most of your breaks. Drink water, have a snack, and, most importantly, give your brain a rest. Use this time to relax before moving on to the next part of the assessment.
  • You have the flexibility to take the assessment all in one day or spread it out over several days, depending on what your administrator has planned for you.

Necessary Items

  • If taking the assessment online, you will need Internet access and a desktop computer, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
  • Scratch paper and pen/pencil.
