After completing your test, the score will be immediately and automatically available. We will now briefly explain how the test is calculated and what it means for your candidacy.

Three Major Terms to Know

Raw – Ranging from 17-23, this simply tallies all your right answers together. Thus, it can be assumed that the average PI Cognitive Assessment score is a 20.

Percentile – The percentile score indicates how you fared against all test takers combined. For instance, if you are in the 70th percentile that means you did better than 70% of all test takers.

Sub-Score - The sub-score is also broken down according sub-categories mentioned above.

Please note that there is no “negative scoring” so you will not be penalized for wrong answers, thus it is important to mark every single answer as this can only boost your score.

Tips Before Taking the Maersk Test

1. Answer what you know: With only 12 minutes to finish the test you have to practice working under pressure. While keeping in mind that only 1% of test takers answer over 40 questions, just make sure that you see the questions and answer as many as you know. What you do not know just guess and move on.
2. Know the Questions: Before taking the test make sure that you know where your weaknesses and strengths are. By fully understanding what type of questions are on the test, you will know what to dwell on and what to pass over.
3. Your Language: The test can be taken in over 70 languages. Those who choose to take the test in a secondary language usually do worse by 6-8 questions, which can drastically affect your score and percentile. So, go with the language you are most comfortable.
