The Numerical Reasoning test is often one of the toughest obstacles you must pass on your way to landing your desired job.
Many candidates find this test frustrating as they don’t understand the relevance to the position they’ve applied for. Others find it nerve-wracking as they haven’t practised maths for several years, or since they’ve always viewed it as one of their weaker areas.
These negative feelings may cause some to give up on taking the test completely, which means the end of their hiring process.
The feeling of uncertainty and the urge to give up are totally understandable. However, from our experience, we know that it’s possible to overcome these emotions and turn this test into an excellent opportunity to stand out and get your desired job.

Cubiks Tests All-Inclusive PrepPack™
Suitable for: Intermediate and Advanced Level
Cubiks Logiks is a unique type of psychometric test that assesses your cognitive ability and aptitude for a variety of employers and positions.
Cubiks is split into 3 sub-sections: Numerical, Verbal and Abstract, each measures different capabilities.
Cubiks Logik General Tests differ from many other aptitude tests in two distinct domains:
- There are only 2 difficulty levels - Intermediate and Advanced - no "Beginners" level.
- Level of sophistication - There is a strong emphasis on logical and methodical ways of thinking.
In all 3 sub-sections of the test, the questions are made to examine your ability to use formal logic, recognize patterns and pay attention to numerous small details simultaneously.
Here’s a Numerical sample question that is similar to the question types you’ll likely encounter on the Advanced level test, which is the most common assessment used by employers:
On the advanced level test, you’ll have to answer 30 challenging questions in 20 minutes - this means having less than 1 minute per question. And on the intermediate level, you’ll have even less time – approx. 15 seconds per question!
Thus, to achieve a good score, practice will be invaluable to you. Especially when it’s not enough that you just score high - you also need to outperform your competitors since your score is compared with others who took the same test.
The good news is that you can definitely improve your skills by practising, even if your test is tomorrow.
Additionally, our customised score reports will make the preparation process easier for you by highlighting weaker areas you need to further strengthen. Targeting these areas can make all the difference between failure and success on this challenging test.
To give you a better idea, here’s what one of these score reports looks like:
