G-Research Psychometric Tests Prep

• Core-skills practice. Numerical, verbal and logical reasoning at graduate level: the skills under G-Research's test, without pretending to be its interface.
• Provider-true difficulty. Item difficulty mirrors the band the real tests sit at, so your score means something.
• Coaching, not just a score. "You are spending too long on table-data questions" beats "you scored 68%". Specific advice per weak section.
• Percentile benchmarking. Your score placed on a modelled UK graduate norm curve, so you know if 70% is excellent or worrying for that test.

1. 1

   Poor time management within sections

   Spending two minutes on a single hard numerical question at the expense of five easy ones.

2. 2

   Misreading verbal reasoning passages

   Relying on personal knowledge or logical assumptions rather than strict text constraints.

3. 3

   Calculation errors under pressure

   Dropping decimal places or misinterpreting table headers while rushing.

4. 4

   Platform interface unfamiliarity

   Losing precious seconds figuring out where the submit or calculator buttons are located.

5. 5

   Ignoring negative marking rules

   Randomly guessing on sections where incorrect answers penalize the total score (where applicable by vendor rules).

6. 6

   Fatigue-induced drop-offs

   Losing concentration during the final minutes of rapid-fire abstract reasoning sequences.

7. 7

   Lack of calculator proficiency

   Typing slowly on a physical or onscreen calculator during high-tempo math sections.

8. 8

   Over-complicating inductive patterns

   Looking for multi-layered mathematical formulas in shape sequences when the rule is a simple 90-degree clockwise rotation.

• Fluent interface navigation

  Practicing on exact vendor simulation platforms so keyboard shortcuts, scratchpads, and timer locations are second nature.

• Rigorous time budgeting

  Establishing a strict seconds-per-question limit before starting the test (e.g., exactly 45 seconds per numerical question).

• The "Cannot Say" discipline

  Cultivating absolute objectivity in verbal modules to avoid the trap of logical extrapolation.

• Executing calibration runs

  Completing at least three full-length timed mock tests under exact test conditions beforehand.

• Strategic omission

  Knowing precisely when to abandon an unsolvable question to preserve mental energy for subsequent items.

• Scratchpad hygiene

  Maintaining a cleanly organized sheet of paper with numbered working notes to eliminate transcription errors.

• Mental math shortcuts

  Utilizing percentage approximations and fraction-to-decimal conversions to bypass heavy calculator usage.

• Pre-test environmental lockdown

  Eliminating all potential household or digital distractions to maintain unbroken focus during compressed time windows.

1. 01Set your own clock per question. Divide section time by question count. Move on when you hit your per-question budget, even if you are mid-thought.
2. 02Read the question before the chart. Half the work in numerical is finding the right number in a table. Knowing what you are looking for cuts the time in half.
3. 03Use "Cannot Say" generously. Verbal reasoning rewards strict reading. If the passage does not say it, the answer is "Cannot Say", not your own inference.
4. 04Skip the impossible ones. Most tests do not penalise wrong answers more than skips. If you cannot see it in 20 seconds, flag and move on.
5. 05Practise the exact format, not a generic stand-in. a multi-section reasoning test has its own rhythm, and a generic reasoning test is not the same. Intervyo's simulation is calibrated to this format, so you rehearse the real thing under real timing rather than a generic aptitude set.
