Psychometric testing

Anyone applying for any kind of Graduate Scheme will be asked to do some kind of Pyschometric Testing.  Through QMUL you have free access to various practice tests... practicing these tests can make a huge difference.

To access these, follow these instructions:

Visit the Careers & Enterprise QMPlus page by selecting 'Careers' from the ‘Student Life’ menu.

The last box ‘INTERVIEW AND PSYCHOMETRIC TEST PRACTICE TOOLS’ contains links to Assessment Day, as well as Graduates First (more psychometric test practice) and abintegro (mock interview simulator).

Students need to register with their @qmul email address.
