What is the Wonderlic Test
The Wonderlic Personnel Test (WPT) is also known as the Wonderlic Cognitive Ability Test (CAT). It includes 50 questions that need to be completed in 12 minutes. This exam is not a measure of how smart you are, but rather how well you play the game, i.e. knowing the right strategies for getting the highest score possible, while at the same time completing all the given questions.
The Four Types of Wonderlic Personnel Test Questions
✻ Spatial Reasoning
Spatial reasoning questions assess your ability in utilising logic to discern various patterns. This ability is important in a wide range of fields, such as architecture, design, engineering and various military positions. You can also apply this skill in day-to-day office jobs. How so? A person with strong spatial reasoning skills will generally have the capacity to approach complex situations and find unique solutions in a way that others may not be able to do.
✻ Speed
Speed questions are generally easy but are thrown at you very quickly. For instance, a question might be as simple as “what is not a food item?” When answering this question, you will have to choose from a list of four possibilities, such as cake, banana, dessert and desert. While we all know that dessert is a food course and desert is a hot area, it can be easy to confuse them under pressure.
✻ Verbal
Verbal reasoning questions are used to measure candidates' capabilities in an office environment. These questions are important because they assess skills which are related to the comprehension and understanding of language. For instance, you may be tested on anagrams, antonyms vs. synonyms, metaphors and common or colloquial sayings. Additionally, you might be given a sentence such as: “An arm has two monkeys." After reading this statement, you will be asked if the sentence can be arranged into a proper sentence.
✻ Word Problems
Word problem questions consist of numerical problems which are presented as both long and short word problems. Consider this example of a question relating to clothing production in a factory: "A food factory has two machines which produce a combined amount of 300 boxes of cereal per hour on an average day. One of the machines broke and the second one only operated for 30 minutes before it broke as well. How many boxes of cereal were created before the second machine broke?"
