Verbal critical reasoning tests are often described by job seekers as the most difficult type of aptitude tests. Nowadays, verbal critical reasoning skills are mostly assessed with the use of the true/false/cannot say question format, introducing high level texts that contain hidden premises and assumptions which make it easy for test writers to create challenging questions. But there are additional critical reasoning tests that are not necessarily in that format which demand understanding of verbal logical reasoning concepts.
In order to determine whether a certain statement is "true, false or cannot say" from the text provided, you must have, or at least develop, an ability to evaluate arguments and the logic they enfold, summarize data and draw important inferences which are not necessarily explicitly stated in the text. This, of course, is something that most of us are not familiar with, and certainly not required to do on a daily basis. However, through practice and internalization of concepts, witnessing an increase in performance is just a matter of time.
Our verbal practice packs include useful strategies and guidelines for answering these questions. Start practicing now >>
