What Is the Revelian Cognitive Ability Test?

The Revelian Test is a Cognitive Ability Test that assesses job candidates’ general intelligence. Employers ask their applicants to take this test, because they believe that it will clearly reveal their personalities and will predict how well they will work in their new workplace. By ascertaining that their job candidates have a high level of cognitive ability, managers can also stay assured that they will perform tasks quicker and more accurately; There are chances also that they will solve problems effectively and will act intelligently in difficult or complex situations.

There are 51 questions on the Revelian Test unequally divided into three main categories: Verbal, Numerical, and Abstract. As candidates are progressing through the test, the difficulty of the posed questions gradually rises. With the difficulty of the questions so varied, the test creates a more comprehensive picture of applicants’ personalities and cognitive abilities. Scores on the Revelian Test are percentile. In other words, they are compared to the scores of a normative group, which allows employers to select the best job candidates from the applicant pool.
